Why was Guitar Hero Live discontinued?
Short answer: yes — activision effectively ended the mainstream guitar hero franchise after 2010–2011 because of market saturation, a costly licence/production model, falling sales after oversupply of similar titles, and a strategic shift toward higher-margin or emergent businesses. The results of the expanded offerings did not contribute well to the series, alongside the late-2000s recession; sales of most rhythm games including guitar hero and dj hero did not meet expectations, falling about 50% short of projected targets.
What Guitar Hero has Aerosmith?
Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is a 2008 rhythm game developed by Neversoft and published by Activision. It is the fifth installment in the Guitar Hero series and the first to focus on the career and songs of one rock band, Aerosmith. The band itself saw a 40% increase in their catalog sales in the weeks following the game’s release. According to Activision-Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick, Guitar Hero: Aerosmith has made more money for the band than any sales of their previous albums.
