What a little whiny pussy. Slash is better than you...just face it, and realize that acting like this proves the point to anyone who does not know who either of you are.

activision obviously violated agreements, regardless of the agreements a breach of contract is still reason to sue, he wont get that much hopefully but he is standing up for himself and isnt letting a corporation walk all over him, i dont know why you guys are hating on him, you would do the same fscking thing. especially if it was your prize possession, which is sadly the case for axl. rip GnR

Well in fairness to Axl he did once publicly say that he was now just a "rich a$$hole".
Petty, vindictive & ludicrous stuff.
Whoever is advising him is just taking the money before they run.
Even if he 'wins' I can't imagine any jury or judge would give him 2 cents for this idiocy.
Slash was as much 'GnR' as Axl ever was - that is the real GnR, not the latest version with the sum total of, er, nobody from the original band, except Axl himself.
Way to make yourself look stupid Axl.

2 things that I hate.
Axl is already rich and known for being a complete dick so he might as well get some cash out of Activision, who would probably die if they lost a penny.

It's Axl in the role of the vindictive ex-wife.
Yes, Slash's new band is better looking, younger and skinnier than your sad sagging ass!
Just my $0.02,

I never thought of it like that...if his goal really is to bankrupt Activision, then I support him fully.

Axl is a broken axle (not as in broke with no money) but broke in the head. Broken agreement or not he is foolish. Sorta like making the public wait for the super duper Chinese Democrazy [sic] for like ten years that sucks worse than his hair does.

It would seem that he is a little behind the times. How old is this game? Asside from the likness of Slash, there are also unlockable videos on the Wii version of the game that feauture Slash talking about the differences between Guitar Hero and a Real Guitar.

Damn Axl is such a whiny little bitch. I thought about naming my kid Axl and then I remembered this retarded little man-bitch and said hell no. As for his argument "...but also promote the game by emphasizing and reinforcing an association between Slash and Guns N Roses and the band's song 'Welcome to the Jungle.'" he is full of crap cuz Axl has said himself that Slash came up with those rifs and the solo. I hate how lead singers get so damn narcissistic and act like their guitarists arent badass. And look what always happens...they break up and then they arent nearly as big or outright suck. Cases in point: Van Halen, Limp Biscuit, Black Sabbath, Adema, just to name a few.
