According to Activision themselves, the Guitar Hero franchise dominated the NDP sales charts for the first 9 months of 2008. Activision attributes this success (at least in Q2) to Guitar Hero: Aerosmith and Guitar Hero: On Tour. Considering Guitar Hero: World Tour came out recently and Guitar Hero: Decades is still yet to come before the end of the year, you can expect to look back at 2008 as the year Guitar Hero ruled the world. Or at least the first year.
