Gearbox confirms 'War Hero,' says it's 'down the road'

Gearbox Software President Randy Pitchford has confirmed that the company's new "War Hero" trademarks are for "something down the road." In a statement sent to outlets, including ShackNews, Pitchford states the War Hero series isn't signed to a publishing partner yet, nor has the developer even talked to any potential partners.

We couldn't help but ask the company if the title had any involvement with Activsion and would use some sort of plastic peripheral? A company spokesperson said, "This has no relation to Guitar Hero." But, but, it has hero right in the title! Doesn't Activision Blizzard own the word by this point?
