Despite this, the core gameplay objective in each remains the same - use a plastic controller to hit a bunch of coloured notes as they scroll past a certain point, and spend more time than anyone else practising it to avoid losing. It really doesn't matter if you're an absolute beginner to the franchise, or some kind of freak, the only thing separating you from anyone else is manual dexterity, and whether or not you're on the dole."
The rumors are swirling, so The Geek Culture has a few suggestions on how Activision can bring back Guitar Hero right.
A personal run down of a few games that despite being overlooked actually didn't suck, from shooters to action games.

Since becoming the number publisher, Activision has done everything possible to piss off gamers."
Well sadly, until the average gamer realizes that they are getting screwed over, Activision is going to be number 1 for a while(as much as I hate to say it).........
... it seems they can.
You need to get the message across with your wallet!
If you LOVE gaming, and if you HATE the way Activision is doing business: DON'T BUY ACTIVISION GAMES (or buy them used) and certainly DON'T BUY THEIR DLC!
It's THAT simple!
Amen. Honestly all the major pubs are starting to become jacked up. Take-Two with the DLC on BioShock 2's disc. EA with selling "DLC" that unlocks content in sports games instead of playing to earn it.
They're all borderline A-holes
Overcharging is the problem. Dragon Age Origins is one of my favorite games but the dlc is overpriced. dlc should cost a few dollars or it should be free.
greatest hit or Smash hit?
