Activision will squeeze more cash from the stone that is Guitar Hero with Guitar Hero:Greatest Hits. No, not Modern Hits. This is the ultimate cash-in, a âbest ofâ compilation for Guitar Hero World Tour.
Mike Griffith, president and CEO of Activision Publishing, announced the Greatest Hits repackaging during todayâs quarterly earnings call, a collection it plans to ship this year for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii.
Guitar Hero: Greatest Hits will feature favorites from previous entries â Guitar Hero, Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s, Guitar Hero II, Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock, etc. â updated for full band play, which Activision introduced with World Tour. While to you that may mean playing âThrough the Fire and the Flamesâ on drums, to me it means percussion duties on A Flock of Seagulls âI Ran.â
Further details werenât provided, but weâre sure that Activisionâs taking requests.
