Popstar Guitar Gets a Sheath

in

The product that is a direct chip off the Guitar Hero block, has been gifted a brand new accessory to kids’ delight. A multi colored sheath, though a bit weird to look at.

Priced at $59.99, the accessory is not quite a draw on your pocket either.

But this piece of news comes with another clause – the game still has one year before it is released. Even then, Atari in all probability wouldn't release it in Wii. It seems to planning the release for Xbox 360 and PS3. Keep the patience up guys.
