A judge in Los Angeles has dismissed Axl Rose's claim that bosses at Activision Blizzard unlawfully used his band's music and an image of guitarist Slash in Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock, which launched in 2007. Axl's allegation of fraud & an attempt to win damages of $20.000,000 were thrown out because the delay in submitting the lawsuit until 2010 passed the statute of limitations.
However, a breach of contract allegation has been allowed to remain after the musician claimed bosses at the company failed to release a Guns N' Roses themed game as an agreement between both parties to settle the dispute. The case will go to court next February 2013.
