Guitar Hero III gets sponsored

The magazines Alternative Press, Decibel, Guitar Player, Kerrang and Paste will give players a chance to see their names in print. Activision has also signed up notable musical instrument and equipment manufacturers including Gibson, Crate, Krank, Mackie and Zildjian, and companies with little to do directly with music at all, like Pontiac and Axe, so their products can appear in the game.

Guitar Hero? Sure. Activision greed and bulls**t? No thanks.

No we DONT need guitar hero or rockband. These games have had 7+titles each console cycle and Im tired of these being the mainstream and practically only focused on musical game.

Amplitude was brought back for PS4 yet with the tech and magic of DLC we didnt get it because not only gamers but devs have become out of touch.

Thumper impressed many and is at least a step in the right direction. I rather have more games like thumper. So screw all this rockband and Guitar hero BS! Take your guitars and peripherals and break them in half!
