Family Guy returns to games

In the Guitar Hero/True Crime/Tony Hawk article: "Activision feels only top-tier games can be competitive in today's market." Bakugan and Cabela's Hunting are top-tier games?

The show Family Guy has turned into a pile of trash. This game should result in the same.

Remember when Activision had great games like CoD, Guitar Hero, THUG, Spider-Man, Barnstorming, Pitfall, Laser Blast, Keystone Kapers, and more? I miss Activision of the late 70s, late 90s, and late 00s. Well, they should have good games by the late 10s.

Diggity Diggity!!!

Family Guy peaked at season 3/4 and its just gone down hill since.

By canceling Guitar Hero, you lost a customer in me, Activision. By canceling Guitar Hero and greenlighting Family Guy games, you make me despise you, Activision. Bad TV show will translate into a bad game.

Is it going to be called Family Guy of Duty: Black Cops?

1st one was dumb i dont expect the next one to be any better family guy is funny games made about family guy suck

How about a Grand Theft Auto type with a hot coffee with Quagmire? Oh Yeah giggity giggity.

a game centered around stewie would rock my socks. although i am not waiting with baited breath.

Quote: According to Hirshberg, Activision sees all of the licensed titles as "strong franchises with passionate niche audiences that can achieve repeatable and profitable success." Translation: "Fans are dumb, so we don't have to spend any money actually making a decent game, and they'll still buy whatever we throw out there every year."

New Bakugan and Cabela's? Freakin' sweet. That's like the time I thought I was going to see Led Zeppelin's bass player in concert. --cut to scene of pointy-hatted pontiff, pointy-hatted naval captain, and track athlete rocking out on stage--

I just wanna rule the world as Stewie. That is all.

Funny, yes. Playable, hardly. It was a broken, frustrating mess.

Not sure y majority of the ppl on this site are hatin tht GH is being discontinued, It seems to me that every single GH game is the same. Why sell a "similar" game with different tracks for full retail price when all they should've done was made DLC tracks. Which leaves us to the point where everyone is hatin on the idea of a new family guy game when GH was an "over milked" game in its series.

the last one on ps2 and xbox was funny...well funnier than i expected.

now we can get the video game to kill the joke too!

Freakin sweet!

the first family guy game was poor no no no no no noooooooo.. i would love a decent family guy game, has to have proper voices, has to have ireverant, adult, potty humour.hehehehehehehehehe needs to look great. and needs to be made by developer that knows and loves the series. will wait n see

@shopsD - Absolutely! 100% agree. We need a Hit n Run 2. The first Hit n Run was amazing.

I want another Simpsons game

I think a really good game could be made from Family Guy. However, with this motivation of serializing long term profit, the fact that it comes out this year and we don't even know who's developing it, and this being the method Activision sees fit to announce it, suggests to me they probably aren't going to put the care into it that it requires.

let me get this straight... They canceled True Crime and Guitar Hero...... But they are making a family guy game??? Does this make sense to any of you???

Giggity!

Pass.

Was the first one not crappy enough?

I have to agree with the negative Activision sentiments here. Shame because i really am a fan of the show.

You'll have to pay 10 dollars to hear the original voice actors.

This is just like that time on Family Guy.

This bird, sure isn't, the word.

Great!!! Activision...:(

Activision... (Ugh) I guess somebody has to do it.

As much as I love Family Guy, I don't think it needs another game.

UH. Really?

@BigJohnWV Why, I thought everyone had heard!

@focus0894 Iguanas don't fly.

Making a new Family Guy game makes as much sense as giving a monkey the keys to an amusement park.

Please, please, please. Don't do that horrible cel-shaded crap 2K did. Just make a $15 PSN/XBL game with mini-games based on skits from the show. Oh by the way, have you not heard?

face palm...

Yez. Yez, Activision. Go forth and cancel your only good games to release this... "Family Guy". I imagine a world without a game coming out once a month just for one fanchise. This world is beautiful.... So beautiful....... Do it. Destroy your own company. I command you at once. Do it while I smile with hate filled amusement, in the shadows, with the burning hatred for you in my eyes... Excellent. *Turns into an Iguana and flies away*

I might regret it, but I'll buy this new Family Guy game. Even if the gameplay is bad, I'll laugh my head off. I love the humor. I'll buy it.

So let me get this straight....Activision has canceled Guitar Hero, put Tony Hawk on hiatus and canned True Crime, yet they're making another Cabela's game. And Family Guy?! Anyone else see what's wrong with this picture? And on top of everything, they're laying off over 500 people! Oh how I despise this company

The only downside is, it's being published by Activision. Personally, I love Family Guy, but it hurts to know I can't buy this game without putting money in Kotick's pocket.

If they do it like a version of monkey island, then it would be awesome.

.... mmaybe, if it stays true to the nature of the show

ugh

I like where this is goin'! Giggidy, giggidy, gig-gi-dy!
