Activision’s Earnings Report Hint At Possible New Games
Activision have now released their earnings report for the quarter just gone. They have announced that they made giant $200 million profit on a $1 billion earnings. However, the real piece of video game news behind this announcement is the hint at some new games that are currently in development.
Deep within the report there were some hints dropped that we could soon be seeing new Spiderman, James Bond and Tony Hawk games. Currently the Spiderman game and the Tony Hawk game has not been confirmed, however, as for the Bond games, the president of Activision, Mike Griffth has confirmed it. Unfortunately, nothing really was said about the games, just that they’re in development.
The current Bond game, released earlier this year, was published by Activision and it has been one of the best Bond based games to date. That game featured the adventures from 2 films, Casino Royale and the more recent, Quantum of Solace. That game was built by Treyarch, the makers of Call of Duty: World At War, which might be why it picked up so many good video game ratings. However, nothing was said as to whether Treyarch would be making this new Bond game.
Also, nothing was mentioned about what the story of the game would be based on. So really the game could go in any direction, it could follow a new story, a previous film, or possibly be a prequel for another film.
As for the other games hinted at, there have been some rumours recently about a new Spiderman film, which would come with a game no doubt so that hint is looking promising. Finally, the Tony Hawk game, I don’t think is happening because with Tony Hawk: Ride being released in November, I don’t believe they would try and release a second so quickly after Ride. However, you can never really tell, it’s just a waiting game now.
