Continuing their relentless assault on prospective The Beatles: Rock Band purchasers, Activision today announced that consumers buying specially marked copies of Guitar Hero 5 during the month of September will receive an advance copy of Guitar Hero: Van Halen (which is currently due in December). This deal also applies to reserve customers. Considering the two games’ setlists, the total amount of songs amount to over 130.

After adding Johnny Cash and Carlos Santana, and then announcing this, we are very impressed with the tricks Activision has up their sleeve. This surely has EA quaking in their boots. At this point, we almost expect a steady stream of features and bonuses (ok, maybe not, but we can hope).
