Will Prince say yes to this guitar game?

There's a new guitar game in town and it's called "Power Gig: Rise of the SixString". What makes this game different from the others is that the guitar is real.

Here's a link to an article: http://mobile.latimes.com...nopaging=1

Here's a demo: http://www.youtube.com/wa...lVEFhP39Ws

In the article it says that artist who didn't license their music because they felt the game lacked realism are now agreeing to let Power Gig use their songs. Do you think Prince would say yes if they asked him to use a song or 2? I hope so, that would be pretty dope!! Even if he doesn't, the game still looks pretty cool. I wonder how much it'll cost, lol.

As a guitarist i'd be all for it. As a Prince fan I was dissapointed he didn't allow Guitar Hero to be done based around his catalog.

but... eeeehh, which Prince songs would you choose for a rock-guitar game??

There ain't that many Prince rock songs to choose from if you think about it...?

Bambi?
Let's Go Crazy?
Peach?
Chaos & Disorder?
The Ride?

just how many of these are known by the broader audience?

Sorry, I don't intend to offend any of you,

Prince is brilliant on guitar, he shows at every concert, but he hasn't made that many rock songs imo.

or - am I wrong here.... ????

I will be buying that. No question. omg

If Prince doesn't participate with the game, oh well, too bad for him. We'll still have plenty of fun without his songs.

I think Dreamer would be a cool pick. I wish he'd let Guitar Hero or Rock band use it so it could be played as a full band. That would be awesome!!

I read that the Son of George Harisson is working on improved and more realistic Instruments for Rock Band 3.

Maybe, Prince is fine with these.

I would also love to play some Songs by Sheila E. on my Guitar Hero Drums.

Kinda random that Dhani Harrison is working on the instruments, lol, but pretty cool. The Beatles Rock band introduced vocal harmonies, which is pretty cool!!
