Both of which where blatantly stolen from Konami's Guitar Freak. I have been familiar with Red Octane long before the big GH craze. They were an online retailer who sold Dance Dance Revolution games and 3rd party dance mats. They also published In the Groove, a ripoff of DDR. Red Octane are pretty much thieves.
But anyway...
PS, I'd defend Harmonix too, Activision should make a guitar you can buy separately or stfu. just sayin'
