Harmonix Goes Through Layoffs, Guitar Hero 2011 Title Canceled

The guitar/band music genre has seen better days. Update: No new GH DLC beyond February.

Earlier this week, Harmonix reported they was undergoing layoffs of 12-15% of their approximately 240-person staff in order to restructure themselves to fit current projects underway. The move follows the sale of Harmonix to Columbus Nova, but there was no word of whether the layoffs were influenced by the music-gaming studio's new owners.

DJ Hero 2 Review

Freestyle abilities, control improvements, and a better soundtrack cement DJ Hero 2 as a must-have rhythm game experience.

Last year when I first went hands-on with DJ Hero, I walked away impressed with what I had experienced. While there were still some small issues, overall the game was an enjoyable, fresh experience that did a great job differentiating itself from its brethren series, Guitar Hero. Apparently the series was successful enough for Activision because it is back for a second round, and this time it has fixed a number of issues and incorporated a more impressive soundtrack along with some brand new moves.
