Why do we still care whether or not Kurt Cobain is featured in a video game? I really do not understand this at all. The former members of Nirvana released a statement saying: "While we were aware of Kurt's image being used with two Nirvana songs, we didn't know players have the ability to unlock the character. This feature allows the character to be used with any kind of song the player wants. We urge Activision to do the right thing in 're-locking' Kurt's character so that this won't continue in the future."
Is Kurt Cobain really that important? Did he add more to music than Johnny Cash, Santana or Van Halen (also in the game)? I mean in all honesty the guy made some decent tunes, but Nirvana was not that great...(Am I going to be smited by the rock gods now?). Everything that Dave Grohl has done since Nirvana is 10x's better than anything he did while he was in it.
It just boggles my mind why some people get so obsessed with one Band (The Beatles, Nirvana, Led Zeppelin, The Grateful Dead) and make them out to be far more important than they are! its confusing and frustrating to think that Courtney Love and the members of Nirvana feel that Kurt Cobain's flash in the pan career gives him exemption from a stupid video game...wise up and understand that He was no better and no worse than any other rock legend and...cliche en route...Let it Be...
