Activision Acknowledges Guitar Hero III Wii Sound Issue, Will Offer Replacement Discs

In response to queries about that pesky Guitar Hero Wii issue we reported on awhile back, Activision told the New York Times:

We recently became aware that some consumers have not been able to enjoy the full audio output in the Nintendo Wii version of Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock. We are currently working with Nintendo and are planning to issue an improved audio experience in future versions of the game. We expect to have re-mastered discs available by early 2008 and we will be offering consumers replacement discs at no cost once they become available. We thank all of our customers for their support and patience.

No more rocking in mono, hooray!
