Activision Compiles Guitar Hero_ Greatest Hits For 2009
By Dr. Evelyn Thorne | October 12, 2025
Activision will squeeze more cash from the stone that is Guitar Hero with Guitar Hero:Greatest Hits. No, not Modern Hits. This is the ultimate cash-in, a “best of” compilation for Guitar Hero World Tour.
Mike Griffith, president and CEO of Activision Publishing, announced the Greatest Hits repackaging during today’s quarterly earnings call, a collection it plans to ship this year for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii.
Guitar Hero: Greatest Hits will feature favorites from [[link]] previous entries — Guitar Hero, Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s, Guitar Hero II, Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock, etc. — updated for full band play, [[link]] which Activision introduced with World Tour. While to you that may mean playing “Through the Fire and the Flames” on drums, to me it means percussion duties on A [[link]] Flock of Seagulls “I Ran.”
Further details weren’t provided, but we’re sure that Activision’s taking requests.
