There have been plenty of stories over the years that Captain Obvious has posted, but I feel this might be his greatest achievement. Yes, the power to state the obvious has been granted to Activison and they've used it with great skill. Hold on to your hats, because here it comes: next year will have more Guitar Hero and Call of Duty games. Activision stated as much during a recent earnings call. We can only imagine that the announcement was followed by a slow clap building into a roaring applause as all the participants realised they were in the presence of the most obvious statement ever.
Also announced in this cavalcade of obvious was a new Spider-Man game and a new Shrek game. The latter of which is most likely based on next year's new Shrek film. We don't know much else at all about any of the games other than their impending release in the next year, but it's pretty clear that the new Call of Duty will move away from WWII and into a new time period with awesome music.

All I have to say.
Although I would LOVE to see Treyarch make a futuristic CoD. Hell yeah.
And guitar hero can suck a fat one. Rock Band 2 music store is all I need.
Activision is not going to pass on a product that can easily sell 5 million units and appease the shareholders. The "nightmare" of CoD3 is, clearly, behind the developer and publisher.
to bring down GH, you have to stop playing RB and not support it...though logic dictates that competition is inevitable.
Don't blame Activsion...blame those who BUY the games. then again I need to earn my paycheck somehow (so hate to say it but...GH sales support my income...)
I'm finding it difficult to believe that this could go on for much longer.
What the hell are you talking about? To bring down guitar hero we need to stop supporting rock band? Don't explain. Please.
