What the hell.

Apparently, Activision has no desire to share their controllers with Rock Band. Perfectly understandable, from a business point of view. But look here, and you’ll realize how little it makes sense when compared to what’s going on on the other end of the spectrum. On Xbox 360, the Les Paul (GH3 controller) works fine with Rock Band.

Now, either Activision couldn’t kill off the compatability forthe 360 version of Rock Band, or they’re making a move that makes no sense at all. They gain nothing from angering the hundreds of thousands of PS3 users that would want to use their Les Paul on either game. They stand to lose a lot of future Guitar Hero sales and they stand to lose a lot of leeway with Sony when it comes to releasing multiplatform and exclusive games.

So… what are they thinking?

Discuss.
