Gibson sues over Guitar Hero: Wal-Mart, Target, Kmart, Amazon, GameStop & Toys R Us

You may have heard the news “Gibson sues Guitar Hero”, but more to the point is the fact that Gibson filed a federal lawsuit on Monday claiming that Toys “R” Us, GameStop Corp, Amazon.com, Kmart, Target Corp and Wal-Mart should stop selling the Guitar Hero game.

Gibson Guitar Corp has taken this action because they feel the Activision Guitar Hero game is violating a patent they hold. The start of March 2008 saw video game publisher Activision file a lawsuit in California that asks a federal judge to declare the game does not violate the musical virtual-reality patent from 1999.

Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock has helped Activision see a 90% increase in sales for quarter 3 that ended December 31st.
