No More Hero: Activision Cuts Music Franchises To A Minimum
After the onslaught of Guitar Hero titles last year, we had more opportunities to use our plastic instruments than we could ever want. Activision now realizes enough is enough. Activision spokesperson, Dan Amrich, live tweeted the company's investors meeting today where he shared the following information:
"Also, Activision looked at last year's Hero slate and agrees with you -- too much. This year, just two games: a new GH and a new DJ. AMEN."
Amen, indeed. Now let's work on making those avatars easier on the eyes.
What do you think about the news?
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
