Mix a little Guitar Hero with a little Brutal Legend and some Diablo dungeon crawling, maybe sprinkle on some Shin Megami Tensei...
Yep I'm sure it had nothing to do with over saturating the market with multiple guitar hero games each year. Obvious sarcasm is obvious.
I knew Guitar Hero wouldn't be dead! Oh Kotick, you never disappoint. Well actually you do because you're bringing back Guitar Hero, but you never disappoint disappointing me.
Frankly I think that's good news. We got our little break from GH, and to make matters better Activision actually wants to innovate it. Now we just need to see some results.
I watched my sister play some Hannah Montana game a while back, and between those poor excuses of "gigs" there was a bit of exploration in the town you were in. I could see this sucking less in Guitar Hero if it were a little less suckish.
It surprises me that Guitar Hero needs innovation, I mean look at what they've added to the games in each title. World Tour was the first game EVER to add Drums and Vocals, Metallica added an extra pedal, 5 let you use 4 drums or 7 guitars or whatever you wanted, and Warriors of Rock had manbearpig. That screams innovation.

And this is why I hate Activision.
Abusing the very limit of capitalism, you can go to hell and never return, kotick.

Actually I would pay for an adventure game that would fuse the adventuring of Brutal Legend and Guitar Hero together. But the main problem of that would probably be the controls. And I don't think people like switching to the regular controller for the adventuring part, and picking up the guitar-controller again for the (boss)battles.
That said, I think it could be an interesting concept. And I really want GH to become interesting again, like it used to be before they started pooping them out like they had a bad diarrhea.

I know gorescream. How dare a company try to make money by making a game people will like! There is no worse crime.
Hmm. People ask for a break. They got it. Other asked for innovation and they'll get that too.
People still bitch. Typical.

Maybe they'll peel off one of the half dozen developers currently working on the Call of Duty franchise to break up the monotony. That, or they'll get 6 developers to work on GH so they can pump 60% of their total games production budget on two franchises.
Orrrrrr, they can take Call of Duty's monster advertising budget and actually make games with it, like GH! They could probably make 2 GH games a year on what they spend to advertise CoD.

"Seriously, ill do it for next to free."
No thanks. But I'm more than willing to concede there may be typographical errors and such in stories, and am always willing to correct them. Being specific would help next time, dtomek.

So, game from one of the two genre I absolutely NEVER play is returning, ok. Come to think of it, I really NEVER buy games with the Activision name on them; Alundra 2, X-Men Legends, and Marvel Ultimate Alliance being the only Activision games I have ever bought and owned.
Oh Bobby, I guess you feel the horse isn't dead yet. Just keep beating it. I mean, how many have we had now?
@RockWallOfMight
Uhh, it's Activision. I doubt there is going to be any real innovation. You know, like trying to make new IPs instead of over saturating the market with what they think will make them the most money.

I can see the internal memos now...
"We took Neversoft and burnt them out creatively. Now it's your turn!"

The haters are hatin, but to be honest I think that if managed properly, the genre is just another way to enjoy your favourite music. A cool musician could give value-add to their cds by providing mp3 and GH downloads with the purchase.
Hey Kotick It's already been "re-invented" It's called Rocksmith.
I highly doubt you can top that. Might as well give up now.
Just release more songs as DLC at a better price point for the games already out.

Jesus Christ, Fuck you, Activision! You spend all your time bad mouthing DJ Hero when it was an actual good idea, blame it for Guitar hero sucking, then bring Guitar Hero back.
Let it die already. Harmonix won, you lost, move the fuck on!

That was a quick reboot, you though they would give it a few years so it can come with a massive comeback but instead it seems like they just went on a break.
