Dan Winters of Activision has revealed that the Guitar Hero series may not be killed off after all, instead he insists that this is just a “hiatus”. In an interview with Gameindustry.biz he says that “Actually, just to clarify, we’re just putting Guitar Hero on hiatus, we’re not ending it,” and that “we’ll continue to sustain the channel, the brand won’t go away.

New Sequence video

Iridium studios has released a “how to” video on how their brand new Xbox live game, Sequence, is played. This game manages to mash together a rhythm based RPG. An interesting first title from an independent game developer that has only been in existence since 2009!

The game itself is a rhythm-RPG which players use either the Xbox controller, Dance Mat or Guitar Hero guitar where they have to switch between 3 screens to either cast magic using Mana, defend against enemies or regenerate lost Mana.

As the video explains there are over 12 hours of gameplay, 90 minutes of recorded dialogue, and 28 tracks from Ronald Jenkees and Michael Wade Hamilton. The game will be released on Xbox Live in the US this month, however look for it in Europe soon.
