After success in Japan with its Guitar Freaks franchise, Konami may be preparing to launch a new series in North America...
Following the massive success of RedOctane's Guitar Hero in North America, it seems that Konami may be in the development stages of launching a rival called 'Guitar Revolution'.
Searching through some of the latest trademarks to be filed at the United States Patents & Trademarks Office has revealed that the developer/publisher trademarked the name on June 29th 2006. Covering both home consoles and arcade machines, the patent is the latest nugget to emerge from the depths of the USPTO.
Konami are yet to confirm the development of such a title, but it wouldn't be the first time that the company has created a guitar-based franchise. Released in Japan, the Guitar Freaks series were in the country's arcades with replica guitar controllers (sound familiar?), butPSOne and PlayStation2 versions failed after a short number of instalments. The series never made it out of the Far East, but with the recently acquired RedOctane taking the States by storm with the Guitar Hero series, it seems that Konami may be re-evaluating the situation.
We'll have more news shortly...
