Media giant Viacom has said that it will be more selective with future content released for its Rock Band franchise, focusing more on software for the game rather than additional hardware.
The comments come as the company revealed that while profits were up in the fourth quarter from $173 million to $694 million, sales were down 3 per cent year-on-year to $4.1 billion with Rock Band blamed for the decline.
“It certainly was a challenging year in 2009 for the videogame industry in general and certainly for our Rock Band franchise,” said Philippe Dauman, speaking during an investors conference call.
