There’s nothing creepier/funnier than watching Kurt Cobain sing songs that he wouldn’t be caught dead listening to on Guitar Hero 5, where the deceased Nirvana frontman is an unlockable character. However, Courtney Love doesn’t feel the same way. While it was initially reported that she was an active participant in the creation of her ex-husband’s likeness for the game, that must have been while she was on her meds.
In a Twitter rampage, Love unleashed a ton of invective towards lawyers, Dave Grohl, and Activision, among others, stating that she’s going to sue Activision. Unless you can read crazy, I wouldn’t suggest looking at the whole thing, but here’s a few choice tweets:

On the one hand, I can understand that she wants her daughter to be taken care of. But even from reading the tweets, it’s apparent that she at least had meetings with Activision. And they wouldn’t put have put Kurt in the game without getting the OK from lawyers. Oh well, whatever, nevermind
