The Beatles in Licensing Talks with Activision and MTV

Beatles Abbey Road

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is about as cool as GH: Hanson. But the Beatles. Holy dogshit. Yeah, this is big. The most influential band of our time and perhaps the best ever, might find their way to a GH or Rock Band near you:

A final deal could be “reached in a matter of weeks,” believes the Financial Times. The deal, expectedly worth millions, is complicated by the fact that two different organizations own stock in The Beatles– record label EMI owns the master recordings while Apple Corps supervises the band’s business interests.

E3 is only a month away. We could see an announcement. They should add a bonus track called, Fuck Yoko.

    Shit I can even get my grandpa one of this, do you know, seriously, how many units a Rockband/GH Beatles would sell? They should have made it years earlier and would have made a ton of cash then now.

    I forgot to say that it’s so hard to license anything related to The Beatles nowadays, you”ll go through some hassle trying to sample a Beatles song so yeah this one is going to be tough.
