We're already set to get yet more next year, while are obviously going to be pushing a great deal in the coming months - but what of Drum Hero?

Well, we've heard it rumoured before (back at E3, Blink 182's drummer said he wanted to be involved in the project), and now Activision have trademarked the name over Halloween.

The new trademark does of course cover new 'videogames', although given that drums are already an integral part of the Guitar Hero series, it is unclear if Activision are merely protecting their 'Hero' brand with this move.

Either way, we'll keep you posted on all Drum Hero news as we get it. Thanks Kotaku.
