Activision Confirms Sequels to Popular Franchises

Activision [http://www.activision.com]has confirmed what we already knew: More new sequels to some of its most popular franchises can be expected in 2008.

Following yesterday's announcement of record-setting financial results, Activision said it would be releasing three new entries in the Guitar Hero 3 [http://www.guitarhero.com/] supply problems for the region. "We are making progress [in Europe] on the inventory front, on getting local content," Activision CEO Robert Kotick said. "We are definitely a year behind in Europe versus what we did in North America."

A new Xbox 360 [http://www.callofduty.com/], PlayStation 3 and PC. Whether the new game will remain in the present-day setting of Call of Duty 4 or revert to the World War 2 era has not been revealed.

EA Syndrome anyone?

Sounds like... what's this about +3 Guitar Hero games this year? Surely, they're all just going to be spinoffs and not worth anyone's time, right? There's no way we're going to get GH4 this year, let alone 5 and 6.

This piece of news is genuinely exciting!
Come on Acty, you'll soon go to Dice and confess how you were naughty business brats in the past.
Please soften my heart.

Don't get too jumpy, both GH2 and GH3 hit for the platforms in the same year. Casual Games spawn like rabbits.

Also, didn't GH and GH2 come out a year apart?
