Billy Corgan Boss Battle in GH:World Tour?
By Jordan Shearer on Jun 24, 2008 in News
Now there appears to be another leak of sorts, only this time it’s a picture of what appears to be Billy Corgan, of the Smashing Pumpkins, in a motion capture suit. This leak came in the form of a tip and picture to gaming site Kotaku.
Is this Billy Corgan? Well it certainly does look like him. Click on the picture for a closer look.
Mind you, we couldn’t be happy with mere speculation, so we decided to do a bit more research.
On May 1st, James Demastus of James and the Giant Blog posted this little tidbit on his site about hanging out with Billy Corgan;
“I got to hang around where Matt works (I have to keep a lot of stuff secret, and I even signed a confidentiality agreement) and watch Billy do his thing for a few hours. I didn’t really get to meet him, but hanging around in the same room for 3 hours is totally cool. I have two pictures I can share. The others can’t be published until the fall.”
Now it seems that the post has been removed from his blog… but there’s always the Technorati caches of blog posts.
You will notice that “Matt” is linked to a web design page/portfolio for Matt Jackowski. Who is Matt Jackowski you ask? If you check out his LinkedIn portfolio, it tells us that Jackowski has worked or is working on both Guitar Hero: Aerosmith and… Guitar Hero: World Tour.
In fact Jackowski is an Associate Producer at Neversoft and does work on Motion Capture.
So what does this all mean? Billy Corgan is a character in Guitar Hero: World Tour.
