Beatles representatives, who haven’t yet reached a deal to offer the band’s music online, are in talks with two companies for a Beatles-themed video game, in a move that could pave the way for a broader licensing of the Fab Four’s catalog. The reps have been talking with both Activision and MTV Games, the respective makers of the Guitar Hero and Rock Band games.

A final deal would be worth several million dollars and could be done in the next few weeks. A deal hinges on getting agreements from Beatles-label EMI and Apple Corps, the company established by the band to oversee its business interests.
