Well, what do you know? That Guitar Hero axe that was spotted a few months back on How I Met Your Mother was actually a sneak peek of the six string that comes bundled with the new Activision title. The unwavering rockers over at FW Labs were able to secure a copy of the game in Chile before most everyone else on the planet, and rather than enjoying their fortune without telling a soul, they decided to snap a host of photos and even upload a few videos of the experience. The new toys in the attic are right there in the read link.

Everybody knows us bloggers are a bunch of pantsless hooligans, but a lesser known fact is that Guitar Hero: Aerosmith comes with a new pants-free mode, as demonstrated in a lengthly sequence on this week’s episode of How I Met Your Mother. Problem is, Jason Segel — who we most fondly remember as Nick the drummer from Freaks and Geeks — likely wouldn’t be caught dead playing Aerosmith on the guitar, so stop trying to mess with our heads CBS. We know the truth.

[Thanks, Jeff]
