    Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to our RSS feed or you can like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter . Tweet Email Tweet Email Beginning this review, I thought it appropriate to recite a line from the Aerosmith song Jaded, “you got your mama’s style, but you’re yesterday’s child to me.” It will become apparent by the end of this review why these lyrics seem a little too true to the game.

    Fans of the band will want to Walk This Way, but otherwise it feels like the Same Old Song and Dance. Read more

    • Very much improved graphics from Guitar Hero III, Great if you love Aerosmith
    • Not as much content compared to other Guitar Hero games, Featuring one band means less variety in song selection

    I was somewhat late to the Guitar Hero craze. My introduction to the franchise did not start until Guitar Hero III. I played both the Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii versions and I actually had the chance to review the latter. Well Guitar Hero is getting ready to launch number four in their franchise, however to bridge the gap until that time they have recently released Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, a game that focuses on the Boston based band.

    All in all, I was impressed by just how accessible Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is. The addition of a number of online multiplayer features really help to add much needed replayability to a title that focuses on a single band. Nonetheless, this is a title that will appeal more to fans of Aerosmith than to anyone else. Thankfully, the inclusion of master tracks and a slick menu interface means that this title sounds and plays exactly how it ought to. Read more

    When developer Neversoft first announced it was working on this, gamers, hacks and pundits everywhere scoffed at the idea that a Guitar Hero game based around the career of one band could possibly work. Call it a social experiment, as it will be interesting to see if the band's popularity rises as a result of the game. For the most part, this game is already a success. Read more

    The game is great for all rockers young and old. I'd like to believe I'm good at this game but my son 9 and daughter 11 are much better at the hard and expert level. I would recommend to all ages great family game. Also, would recommend the warriors of rock full band for family fun. Read more

    This game is just as good as the first 2 guitar hero games, but i have to say that my favorite one of these so far is guitar hero 3. It is pretty cool playing on career level though because after you beat the first two songs, you get to play with Aerosmith on stage. The reason i give this game a 4 is because i think the graphics could be better...and that goes for all guitar hero games. but other than that, it's fun to play. Read more

    It might be a little costly if you consider the dollar-to-song ratio, but this bundle isn't completely necessary. If you have Guitar Hero III for the Wii, you can simply buy the game itself without the guitar. Read more

    • This game is another great addition to the Guitar Hero franchise. It contains many cool songs, and is a lot of fun. The boss battle at the end of the game is actually ...
    • There aren't as many songs as the previous Guitar Hero (III). They also aren't as difficult as other songs on Guitar Hero III.
