“Computer game software and related instruction manual sold together as a unit; interactive video game programs; computer game cartridges; computer game discs; downloadable computer game software; video game controllers; interactive video game comprised of a cartridge or DVD sold as a unit with a video game controller.”
To make matter clear: Modern Hits will take the same path as it Guitar Hero: Aerosmith did before it. Activision plans to release a new boxed product. As for downloadable content, it may come in time, but only as a side-feauture of the upcoming game.
There’s no word on what tracks will be included in this edition, but you can safely bet that the focus will be on modern-day music. So just take a look at the current charts and see what you would like to have. (hint: don’t choose hip hop songs. Rumor has it Activion is unlikely to choose them /sarcasm)
