Rock music and video games have a long history together. System of a Down frontman Serj Tankian created the score for the video game Morning Star back in 2012. Last year, Avenged Sevenfold took things a step further and released a video game of their own called Hail to the King. Musicians have even made appearances in video games, Kurt Cobain’s likeness was included in Guitar Hero 5, James Hetfield’s avatar was in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 HD game and Steven Tyler appeared in Revolution X.
