Risky Business Set Dismantled in New Taylor Swift Band Hero Commercial

band-hero-b-roll

Fans of the underwear sliding Risky Business inspired Guitar Hero set may be shocked to hear that after countless Activision milking, the developer is finally transitioning (litterally) into a larger arena.

I say literally, because the set that we’ve all become so re-familiar with will be pulled apart before our eyes in the debut commercial for Activision’s newest game … Band Hero.

The spot itself will feature Taylor Swift backed up by Fall Out Boys’ Pete Wentz and Blink-182′s Travis Barker as they expand their horizons from a living room to an arena full of adoring fans. You can get a behind-the-scenes look at some B-roll footage below.

What are your thoughts? Does the world really need another band game? Should Activision have left this market alone or do you think the competition factor will be good for consumers in the end?

    My bad Dave. No clue what the heck I was thinking there. The post has been updated to reflect their correct bands. At least, I’m pretty sure those are the correct bands.
