Speaking in an earnings call following the release of third quarter financials yesterday, Acitvision boss Bobby Kotick said that the firm plans to release more than 70 SKUs next year, all based on “already proven franchises.”
Confirmed on the call for 2009 were multiple Guitar Hero titles, a new Bond game, “innovative” Call of Duty titles, and games based on films like Dreamworks’ Monsters vs Aliens and Wolverine.
Kotick also said that the company has plans to release games based on three to four new IPs, all of which he says are well into production. Later in the call, Activision’s Mike Griffith mentions Singularity, Prototype, and a Bizarre Creations racing title among these new IPs.

I doubt there are going to be any surprises. At all.

Seems over for Acti-Bli… oh wait, everyone in the world just bought “Guitar Hero Cat Stevens”.
patlike said:
Surely it can’t go on forever, though? World of Warcraft and Guitar Hero won’t work for all time, right?
Right?

That said, I can’t wait for the Wrath of the Lich King launch in London. Should be awesome.
