Activision's Hammy Spin-off

Activision today revealed that its handheld teams are currently in the works with an original Over the Hedge spinoff titled Hammy Goes Nuts, set for release sometime this fall.



The game, in development for the Nintendo DS, Game Boy Advance, and PlayStation Portable systems, revolves around the hyperactive squirrel Hammy (voiced in the film version of Over the Hedge by The Office's Steve Carell) in an action game where players, as Hammy, RJ, and Verne, must head back into the suburbs to restore Hammy's lost cable TV connection. Each version of the game will be original to the platform.

This game announcement comes piggybacked on a release from Activision that reveals the team's holiday line-up for handheld systems which includes Spider-Man: Battle for New York for the Nintendo DS and Game Boy Advance, as well as Gun Showdown and Activision Hits Remixed for the PlayStation Portable.
