This intriguing piece of speculation originated from a report in US mag Electronic Gaming Monthly, which claimed that a Guitar Hero game, set in the decade that taste forgot, would be appearing during Q2 2007. As it happens, RedOctane was unwilling to comment on the claims, so we're filing this as a rumour for now. The company did teasingly promise that we'd be hearing from them soon, however.
A 1980s themed Guitar Hero isn't such an outrageous idea, either. There has already been an '80s version of Singstar released, which we recall sold rather well. And, with many gamers being old enough to have experienced 1980s music first-hand, its appeal would be potentially broad. Headbands and acid-washed jeans at the ready, chaps.
