Axl Rose, frontman of Guns N' Roses, made a deal with Activision to include the song "Welcome to the Jungle" for use in the game with a promise of not including any reference of ex-guitarist of GNR, Slash, in the game. However, Activision still included Slash, and his post-Guns N' Roses band, Velvet Revolver.
