That's a pretty hefty rumor. I wonder what this means for Activision's overall direction if it's true. Less focus on milking games? More focus on WoW and Call of Duty?

That's...surprising from Activision.

If only they'd stop milking their other genres like COD and start making new IPs now eh?

They have a lot of talent, which has yet to be revealed

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Can't say I'm sad to see GH go.

The games done by Harmonix were great, after that.....

True Crime: Hong Kong cancelled?

The game was supposed to come out in 2010 so that means it was pretty close to completion. Odd.

Singing!

Singing isn't very big anyway, singstar plods along unnoticed but does ok, and Lips never took off ...

Perhaps we'll see a true intergration of all 3, singing, dancing, and a band behind

I'm going to steal your idea and make it completely Kinect based (like Wii Music with plastic instruments or the Wii Mote) and also make it to market first!

You shall rue the day you've crossed me! I can run to the patent office first thing in the morning! Duncan will definitely support me :D
