1 out of 5 stars Not an Aerosmith fan? PASS on this one!!   July 3, 2008
I am very disappointed in this edition of Guitar Hero. While I am a luke-warm Aerosmith fan, I found the game pretty boring and the songs completely lame. I have enjoyed every other installment of the Guitar Hero games because of the variety of songs and different guitar styles. In the others, there was something there for everyone. In this edition, unless you are a hardcore Aerosmith fan, it is pretty much all the same. I really thing that the makers of Guitar Hero missed the mark on this one by focusing on a single band. Furthermore, if you were going to focus on a single band, aren't there other artists out there who have a music catalog that is more interesting and offers 'more' of the guitar hero ideal? I don't know that there is any single band that could pull off dedicating an entire video game to themselves.

Unless you are a huge Aerosmith fan, save your money and play the other Guitar Hero installments.



5 out of 5 stars Greatest song list on a guitar hero game since 80's version   July 2, 2008
  0 out of 1 found this review helpful

The songs on this game are great. Espiecially the non aerosmith songs. I'm a moderate to abovermoderate aerosmith fan. But if you don't get jacked out of your mind playing love in an elevator, dream on, or sweet emotion, you're insane. The cult song and mott the hopple are extremely fun to play on expert. Good Show!!!


2 out of 5 stars Avoid unless you are crazy about the band   July 2, 2008
The first 2 GH games were great - but this continues the downward trend. None of the games since the 8os version have been so much fun as the originals. The song selection to a casual fan is poor - obscure to me old or brand new Aerosmith songs. Buy the GH1/2 double pack or Rock Band instead


4 out of 5 stars Excellent game!   July 1, 2008

A great way for the younger generation to learn about and appreciate Aerosmith. The video clips in between levels are a nice touch and a little something different from GH3. Nice graphics.

I also like the idea that the lyrics of the songs with suggestive lyrics are somewhat muted and more in the background, rather than loud and in your face, so that the entire family can play and enjoy the game. Not sure if this is an intentional feature, but it's much appreciated by moms like me.

If you are a GH3 fan, then you will love this version.



3 out of 5 stars Love Areosmith, don't like this game   July 1, 2008
  0 out of 2 found this review helpful

I don't like more than half the songs on this game. The guitar hero people should have waited for their drum set edition and maybe this game would be more fun. Areosmith is great and I love the band, that's why I got the game, but the other songs suck. The graphics are horrible and stiff.
