1-4 of 4 reviews of Guitar Hero Aerosmith (Xbox 360)
Is the new Guitar Hero a hit?
Advantages: Fun for a mess-about, Great if you love Aerosmith Disadvantages: Not if you don't, feels poorly made, expensive
...enormous moth. £50 for 40 Guitar Hero tracks on the GH III engine with barely a new asset in sight. It's a stretch, it really is, but Guitar Hero: Aerosmith just barely get's away with it...barely. It's a rip off, but it's a fun rip off, and it hurts me to admit that.

Fifty pounds. Fifty English pounds for Joe Perry's decaying mug and Steven Tyler's enormous moth. £50 for 40 Guitar Hero tracks on the GH III engine with barely a new asset in sight. It's a stretch, it really is, but Guitar Hero: Aerosmith just barely get's away with it...barely. It's a rip off, but it's a fun rip off, and it hurts me to admit that.
There's something nauseatingly enjoyable about Aerosmith's music. It's bluesy rock, almost entirely devoid of substance and lacking any real meaning or message, but Joe Perry's twiddly little solos and the constant driving beat make for good Guitar Hero tracks. And while the band's most famous tunes like, 'Cryin'', 'Dude (Looks like a lady)', and the sickly 'I don't want to miss a thing' may be conspicuous by their absence, the set lists are bolstered by a decent group of non-Aerosmith efforts.
'She sells Sanctuary' by The Cult, 'All The Young Dudes' by Mott the Hoople, 'Hard to Handle' by The Black Crowes - all hand-picked by Aerosmith themselves apparently, but judging by the state of Joe Perry in the appallingly low-rent interview videos, his mental faculties probably aren't quite what they were.
Regardless, the setup is pure Guitar Hero. You begin as one of the standard GH crew (Lars Umlaut and all) as a support act for Aerosmith, busting out a couple of tunes before the real deal arrives to play their 'famous' warblings. Half of them are ancient tracks from the seventies that hardly anoyne will have heard, half of them are crowd-pleasers; almost all of them are decent enough to play. Neversoft seems to have improved its note charts since Guitar Hero III, and the difficulty settings are a bit more balanced than they have been.
There are fewer implausible hammer-on sections, fewer three-finger chords and a better understanding of what makes GH great: making you feel like a rock star. And thankfully - mercifully, even - there's only one head-to-head battle, the fairly simple one-on-one with Joe Perry. No trips down to hell with the devil this time; only a trip into Aerosmith and Run DMC heaven.
It's still unmistakably cheap, though. From the resolution of the video clips to the complete regurgitation of assets to the way it vomits Achievements at you fro the simplest of tasks, Guitar Hero: Aerosmith reeks of a cash in. Of course it does: it is a bloody cash in. The price is an absolute joke, as are the ugly-as-sin characters. This must have cost a pittance to make, and the poor fans are being charged a significant mark-up. Perhaps price shouldn't be a factor into a game review, but this really is a bit of a piss-take.
So is Guitar Hero: Aerosmith worth it? It's a tough one. The score out of five reflects the quality of the game and nothing else, but when you factor in the unacceptable cost, it's almost impossible to recommend to anyone other than the Aerosmith hardcore, and surely there aren't many of those in this country. In fact, it's probably a better buy for the Achievement whores out there than the Guitar Hero fans. Much like the band itself, Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is a fun way to kill an hour, then you realise you've spent all your money on smack.
Play it listening to: The in-game music by Aerosmith
Advantages: Good play, something you wont put down, great music, good graphics Disadvantages: can lagg from time to time
...least halfway and tilt your guitar to unleash your star power. Star power will automatically double any score multiplier you currently have.
You can also have battles with other people, on Xbox live, or in your own room! You can use either the Guitar remote, or the normal controller to play.
Only their are rules you have to apply with, with the guitar remote:

The guitar hero guitar controller is for indoor use only and should be kept away from open flames or other heat sources.
Do not leave the guitar hero controller in a dusty or humid place.
plus many more rules, so if you cannot apply a place to put your guitar, guitar hero is not for you.
The graphics to this game is about 4/5, althought its good seeing them dance and sing, but they could make the characters ...

...the appropraite fret on the guitar and then struming, or pressing the respective button on a conventional Xbox 360 controller. There are plenty of videos on YouTube for people that aren't familiar with the concept of these games.
The gameplay itself is closer to Guitar Hero II, as the hammer on system has been made stricter than it was in Guitar Hero III. This is not to say that experienced Guitar Hero veterans won't be able to sail through the ... ...is easier than the previous Guitar Hero titles. The graphics and sound are pretty much the same as in Guitar Hero III, so if you played that game before you will know that they are of a very high quality.
The content is pretty much identical to that in Guitar Hero III, with the addition to a few new and strange guitar styles, as well as a couple of more unlockable characters, including Aerosmith themselves. This game is definately worth a look for ...

Advantages: Addictive and fun gameplay Disadvantages: Could be more song variety
You don't have to be a huge Aerosmith fan to love this game. I was unsure about this before I bought it but found myself enjoying it all the way through. Many of the Aerosmith classics are here including Walk This Way, Sweet Emotion, Uncle Salty, Pink and Toys in the Attic. As well as tracks by other classic bands such as The Kinks - All Day And All Of The Night and Mott The Hoople - All The Young Dudes. The game has a lot of longevity with 4 difficulty ...
