Since it's start in 1994, Neversoft has been growing more and more over the years. During their early years they established the foundation of the company, which later led to the purchase of Neversoft by Activision. The purchase was the beginning of a great time for both Neversoft and Activision. One of their first games together, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, gained great critical acclaim and paved the way to a successfull future.

Neversoft continued to develop games in the Tony Hawk franchise until 2007 when Activision offered them to work on the Guitar Hero franchise instead. Their first game, Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock, became a great success and made over $100 million in its first week of release in North America, and as of July 2008, the game has sold more than 8 million copies worldwide.
