Guitar Hero Makes Over 1 Billion Dollars
Sorry about the pic; I’m just used to articles about large sums of money being about Nintendo, but it seems like they aren’t the only ones with enough cash to pull a Scrooge McDuck. Turns out this little thing called Guitar Hero is also printing money, though I’ve been looking all over my GH3 guitar and can’t find the handy slot the bills come out of like on the DS. The NPD group, in their all knowing wisdom, is reporting that the Guitar Hero franchise has made over 1 billion dollars and this doesn’t include downloadable songs. Of course what’s a few million dollars here or there, really? Looks like Activision’s purchase of the franchise from Red Octane for 100 million dollars was a wise investment.
Does anyone else read 1 billion dollars with a Dr. Evil voice in their head?

Why make trillions when we can make…billions?
Now that you have said it I can’t stop thinking it.
I’ll get you Mr. Razak.
