I bought this for my 8 year old Nephew and he loves it. He now recognizes different music types.

Expected more!

I expected more of the aerosmith famous hits in the game! Didn't like the opening cover songs and there is no co-op career option like the regular guitar hero game. It is not a bad game, just expected more out of it!

I grew up during Aerosmith's revival after the "Walk this Way" remake and while never a big fan, I liked them well enough to pick this game up.

As others have said, the song choices are really bad. I never thought I would get bored while playing GH, but especially during the early stages the songs not only are easy to play, they are boring to listen to. For the most part, the non-Aerosmith songs are more fun than those from the band the game is named after.

The graphics are good enough, but you'd think they could have at least added more new quotes for the splash screens between songs. I do think the band's video intros to each stage was a nice touch.

Not up to par

When I heard that Aerosmith was going to be involved with the next Guitar Hero game, I was pretty excited. I have several Aerosmith CDs from the Geffen days (Pump, Permanent Vacation, Get a Grip), and their greatest hits album. I considered myself a fan. Too bad few of my favorite songs made it into the game. Instead we are treated to Cheap Tricks, Dream Police..........ugh. King of Rock by Run DMC is an OK song, it just doesn't translate over to Guitar Hero very well. Even the good songs aren't that fun to play. The keystrokes aren't layed out very well. Where in past games, you kind of got the feeling that you were playing the song, ie Mississippi Queen, and Pride and Joy, in this one you just feel like you are hitting buttons. There isn't a nice flow. If you play GH you know what I am talking about. This game isn't all bad. Wii owners will be pleasantly surprised to see that the graphics have been upgraded, and this one is in stereo. I never really noticed on GH3 but evidently not being in stereo got alot of people bent. I would love to give this game my whole hearted recommendation but alas I can only say that it wasn't a total waste of money. I think I will put GH3 back in and wait till Christmas when my son opens his Rock Band. Can't wait!

do not waste your money... not fun at all... there is one, two at best songs worthwhile.

Like other reviewers have said this game is pretty much Guitar Hero 3, with Aerosmith characters and stage designs. For the non-Aerosmith songs, you play the same characters as in Guitar Hero 3.

Which would have been fine if they had better songs. Most of the Aerosmith songs in the early stages of the game are rare songs that never get played on the radio. You would have thought if they were trying to promote the band to a new audience, they would have picked more popular songs.

The songs by the other bands are OK, except I would have picked "Should I Stay Or Should I Go" by the Clash, and "I Love Rock And Roll" by Joan Jett instead of the songs they picked. These are the songs I would have picked by Aerosmith:

Nimpuc:
Make It (because it says "Welcome to the show")
Back In The Saddle
Dream On

Max's KS:
No Surprise (because it's about Max's)
Mama Kin
Draw The Line

The Orpheum:
Sweet Emotion
Last Child
Toys In The Attic

Half Time Show:
Walk This Way (with Run DMC)
Ragdoll
Young Lust

Hall Of Fame:
Joe Perry Guitar Dual
Love In An Elevator
Let The Music Do The Talking
Train Kept A Rollin'

The Vault:
Same Old Song and Dance
Pandora's Box
Walk This Way
Rats In The Cellar
Kings And Queens
Dude Look's Like A Lady
Living On The Edge
Pink
Don't Want To Miss A Thing
Jaded

LOVE AEROSMITH

This game is not all Aerosmith songs. You start off playing two opening songs, and then move on to the Aerosmith songs. I was a little disappointed by the songs chosen for this game. There are so many good songs by Aerosmith, and those selected for this game just seem a little random.

This game is not like the other GH games because you can only really choose one song at a time as you're advancing through the levels. You are forced to play every song, rather than beating 3/4 or whatever. Even though I prefer the other GH games, this one is still fun. It was probably better that they changed the set up because I was not motivated to play every song in the game in one night.

If you like GH, just get it. New songs are always good.

Not as fun as the original Guitar Hero III...

I was really looking forward to playing this game, although I'm not a big Aerosmith fan and hardly know any of their older songs. I guess I should have stuck with the original GH III. The songs are boring (unless you like Aerosmith), and unlike the GH III, you have to play all of the songs in each level in career mode to get to the next level. It's definitely not worth $49.99, but may be a fun game if the price comes down.
