News: First video game to surpass one million fans.
Guitar Hero vs. Rock Band. Which has the better guitar controller? The better drum set? The greater song list? The stronger modes? The more... Facebook fans?
That's right, Activision is claiming victory as the first video game to surpass one million fans on the Internet's leading social networking site. The Guitar Hero page is currently at 1,084,392 fans. Make that 1,084,393 because yours truly is a bandwagon jumper. Go Phillies!
The Rock Band page on Facebook, meanwhile, trails Guitar Guitar Hero considerably. It has just 313,345 fans.
"Guitar Hero's Facebook community can come together at the social networking site to get the latest information on Guitar Hero games and the artists in the games, as well as share their favorite artists, songs, and Guitar Hero experiences," said this morning's press release. "Facebook fans also gain access to exclusive information and content on past, current and future games."
Don't worry, Rock Band. You can always try to beat Guitar Hero by building up your MySpace friends.
