Fitness Hero! Workout Hero! (Not from Activision, though!)
Trademarks for both Fitness Hero and Workout Hero have been registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Siliconera, which spends its summer afternoons looking up trademarks, found the listings aren't by Activision, but by VPT Technologies, an exergaming developer.
We said it before -- when Gearbox Software registered War Hero -- doesn't Activision own the word "hero" in relation to any video game by this point? We know Activision is litigious -- even when it's wrong. Some attorney on retainer should be all over this.

I don't like it because it derails articles. All of the comments are "OMG DOOD I totally couldn't find her." Or "HAHAHAHA THIS IS FUNNY EVEN THOUGH IT'S BEEN GOING ON ALL DAY NOW"
ArchiGamer @ Jul 1st 2009 8:54PM
And that's different from all the other times how?
Leroy_Octopus @ Jul 1st 2009 9:00PM
Oh noes, guys! tmac doesn't like it! What are we gonna do?
MystileArmor @ Jul 1st 2009 8:50PM
Go away if you don't like it, douchebag.
Keep 'm coming guys. The fucking funniest thing ever.

Dedication knows to never stop.

"Sick of this crap"
The most appropriate name on Joystiq ever.
ArchiGamer @ Jul 1st 2009 8:52PM
I'm so in love with that face i'm just going to end up buying the game just to stare at it all fucking day.
Thanks Joystiq!
killthemsmithers @ Jul 1st 2009 8:55PM

Don't let the proverbial door hit you in the ass on the way out!
