Beatles Edition of Guitar Hero is a possibility

[thas]

Martin Bandier, a top executive at the music publishing company that owns the Lennon-McCartney song writing copyrights, has said he'd be interested in a dedicated edition of Guitar Hero for the Beatles.

"It's something we have talked about and something I'd like to pursue," said Bandier to the Los Angeles Times.

Traditionally, the rights to cover Beatles tracks have been notoriously hard to obtain, but copyright owner Sony/ATV Music Publishing has recently loosened its stance, allowing a number of companies to use the songs in advertisements.

Activision has yet to comment on the matter, but it'd be daft not to pursue a potentially massive opportunity like this.

The Beatles have some good music, but I don't quite think it's fit for the GH series. It seems a little odd.

I would rather Guitar Hero - Guns N' Roses/KISS/Alice Cooper/Led Zeppelin.

Personally, I think the Beatles should just license out songs to GH & Rock Band.

But, I am 100% buying a Beatles Guitar Hero disc if it gets released. Especially if it has a lot from their later psychedelic era!!!
