Really Ephrata, PA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #1 Nov 5, 2009 "...The lawsuit claims a feature allows players to have lead singer Gwen Stefani perform suggestive lyrics from the Rolling Stones' hit "Honky Tonk Women." Geez....I think some of Gwen's solo stuff (especially album tracks) has been FAR MORE "suggestive" than anything the stones have done. But it doesn't bother me! heheh
Just_Me Harrisburg, PA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #2 Nov 5, 2009 I think the game animation is hilarious. Not knowing how to change the characters at first, the original male singer character for such songs was a huge, burly, guy who looks like they're in a heavy metal band. Now picture that character singing to the Culture Club song.
