Band Hero Becoming a Tragic Kingdom for Activision
November 9, 2009
Released on November 3, 2009, Band Hero, is Activision’s family-friendly version of its popular Guitar Hero series. This video game features pop hits from a variety of bands and solo artists (click here for a listing). An added feature of this game includes digital versions, or avatars, of the participating recording artists. However, the day after the game’s release, No Doubt, filed a lawsuit over a player’s ability to use the band’s avatars for any song, not just the three songs performed by the band. No Doubt, exploded with their second album, Tragic Kingdom, that featured the singles “Just a Girl,” “Spiderwebs,” “Don’t Speak,” “Excuse Me Mr.,” and “Happy Now?” They state they didn’t agree to the shifting avatars and commented it represents the band as “a virtual karaoke circus act.” click here for limerick
