Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk:


Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is the first game built around the legendary music of America’s greatest rock ‘n’ roll band: Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, Brad Whitford, Tom Hamilton and Joey Kramer. Fans will experience Aerosmith’s GRAMMY award winning career, from their first gig to becoming rock royalty, in a way that no other entertainment vehicle offers. As players progress through the game, they can rock out to the band’s greatest hits, as well as songs from other celebrated artists that the band has either performed with or has been inspired by in some way. Venues from historical moments during the band’s illustrious career offer the experience of "sweet emotion" and further capture the essence of the band’s rise to fame.



KEY FEATURES:



Let the music do the talking – The collaboration offers consumers an unprecedented level of access to Aerosmith’s music catalogue and an unbeatable soundtrack, with every Aerosmith song being a master recording. Each set includes chart-topping hits from renowned artists that the band has either performed with, or has been inspired by.



Rock this way, talk this way – Relive rock ‘n’ roll history and witness all five members of Aerosmith in all their glory. Motion capture sessions with each member of the band – including extensive facial motion capture featuring Steven Tyler’s lip movements to every song – further deepens the experience. Additionally, multiple memorable outfits capture the band’s rise to rock royalty, enabling players to feel like they’re really experiencing those historic performances.



It started with a little kiss, like this – Completely redesigned venues featuring locations from historical moments in the band’s career offers fans the opportunity to live the Aerosmith life. Starting with their first-ever concert at Nipmuc High School players ascend to the pinnacle of rock stardom.



Bass in the place – Enjoy the ultimate party experience in the Co-op quickplay game mode and shred as Joe Perry, Brad Whitford and Tom Hamilton or select your favourite fictional Guitar Hero.





Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A neat little filler before World Tour.
Yes, it's Aerosmith. That alone nearly dissuaded me from buying it but they're a guilty pleasure and when you nail the solo from Run DMC's version of Walk This Way, it still gives that all-important buzz (it did for me at least!).

The tracklisting split between the title band and the rest is about 70/30. Along with Aerosmith you get songs from The Clash (hurrah!), Lenny Kravitz (*shiver*) and Stone Temple Pilots (aw yeah...). It's a reasonable selection but unless you're a riffaholic, I'd suggest waiting for Guitar Hero: World Tour, which is released in October/November. And that game has The Eagles and Sublime to look forward to as well as the whole band thang a la, erm...Rock Band.

So, there you are. If you're still ... Read More:



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Just a filler inbetween gh3 and gh world tour
This game is just to fill in the small gap inbetween gh3 and gh world tour and it would be worth just waitning until guitar hero world tour comes out to get a new guitar hero. The graphics aren't very good either and you really do have to be a big aerosmith fan to be able to play their songs.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Disappointing!
As a fan of both Guitar Hero 3 (GH3) and Aerosmith I was looking forward to the release of this game with some excitement.

Fans of GH3 won't be surprised by the look and feel of the game; as you might expect it's little more than GH3 with different songs and tweaked graphics.

The first surprise came when I started working through the Easy career mode. It feels like they've taken Easy from GH3 and dumbed it down, making it even easier. Less notes, feels slower, less interesting to play. It seems far easier to score 100% on songs.

The second was when I realised how few songs the game contained - approximately 30 fewer than GH3. With such a large catalogue of material to draw from it's a shame that there are ... Read More:



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Bit of a let down but still good.
I'll try to be short and concise as that is what i like to read in a review, i own guitar hero 3 and i would rate that 5 stars. So..

Why is this a let down?

1. Less songs
2. The graphics seem to have taken a step back
3. You play to earn money for new characters and guitars etc. But you are unable to use them for 80% of the songs as they seem to have a default setting to use the basic aerosmith characters
4. It isnt as challenging as guitar hero 3

Why do i still class it as a good game?

1. Although the songs are on general guite poor for eclectic tastes (unless you are a die hard aerosmith fan) it is still good fun to play.




If you have not played ... Read More:



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Gah, no variety
I don't rate this game although I loved GH3. It's just not varied. If you like Aerosmith then defiantly get it but if you don't then maybe give this a miss. I wish I did.
There are very few songs which mostly suck.
I wish you could get the other Guitar Hero games for the Wii.
