We here at TheFeed received word from a reliable source that Activision is conducting testing for Guitar Hero IV already. The first round of testing is supposedly happening tomorrow and appears to be a small-scale test (4-6 people).
This could be testing downloadable content and the mention of Guitar Hero IV could be a mistake on the part of the firm conducting the test, but it could also mean that Guitar Hero IV may be closer than we think.
This would fit with recent comments made by Activision that Guitar Hero (along with Call of Duty and Tony Hawk) would be a franchise that is "exploited" yearly.
TheFeed is interested if this means that the plans for downloadable content support for GHIII are being put aside for another boxed release.
Activision was not available for comment as of press time, but we will update you with any statement they make on this topic.
Also, if they continue to use Roman numerals for this franchise then Guitar Hero IV will be abbreviated “GHIV”. LOL.

what, you dont want a new guitar hero every year. Um ok then. Because the only thing they have to do to keep the franchise going is to add different songs to each sequel. That SHOULD only take about a year. Maybe sme other additions and some gameplay touchups. Other than that there is really nothing to inprove upon.
That particular web comic speaks better than I could on this subject.
Regardless, Activision has been in the news alot lately, and it hasn't been very good. I think I'll be sticking to Harmonix products until Activision gets over their money love.
just give me a FPS i'd rather be curb-stompin folks!!
I understand they got some good songs, but until Led Zep lets them use at least heartbreaker, I will not and you all should not, they could be doing everything they can to get the rights, instead of doling out these bore-fest.
i'm so dumb.
i heard they are with blizzard, so hopefully that will add something interesting to the game.
MORE VAN HALEN!

Guitar = Good, Rockband = Good, therfore:
Guitar Hero x Rockband = Guitar Band = Good squared
guitar hero is an awsome game by far one of the best ever made.
but i really think that if u start mixing rock band with guitar hero it'll just defeat the purpose of guitar hero!
im mean it'll be cool but isnt guitar hero just about the guitars???
i think it sucks that there just now focusing on the drums on guitar hero!
jeez........................ ..
