Something big is coming for the Guitar Hero series according to Activision. Something innovative. Something unstated and vague that might appeal to stockholders who are thinking to jumping to MTV and its Rock Band franchise? Exciting ain't it?
Speaking in a conference call, Michael J. Griffith, president and CEO of Activision's Publishing Unit, said:
While SPOnG was reading that, we had this really great idea. We thought, "Hey, wouldn't it be totally freaking double awesome if they did Guitar Hero, but with other instruments as well, so you could play with a full band of your mates?!?!"
That, or a crazy laser harp peripheral. Using the Wii Remote. That would be totally freaking double awesome, too.
Check back on SPOnG in a couple of weeks to find out exactly what the innovation is.

...or what if you can plug in a real electric guitar and have to really match the song chord for chord...

No one would play it if you had to use a real guitar (except people who already play guitar.) It would be too difficult for gamers. They wouldn't be able to play it for 10 hours a day, a week straight, and be able to be exceptional at it. They would completely lose the ability to immediately beat people online, and subsequently call them n00bs. And what good is a game if you can't insult people you don't even know anonymously?

They should make an automated guitar that plays the game for you! We could ALL revel in a perfect win through fire AND flames! That'd be awesome!

The guy from Local H has one like that. One drums and the other handles all the strings.
