This just in: Konami has patented "Guitar Revolution". (
Check out the story on 1up.com) could this be even more of a sign that we're gonna see U.S. Guitar Freaks releases than the fact that V2 was at E3? We really can't be sure at this point, but if Konami does have something up thier collective sleeves, I'm sure we'll be seeing more info on it soon.
