Customer Reviews


Guitar Hero - For my 8 year old nephew
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!


Guitar Hero for WII
My 10 granddaughter just loves this product. The delivery was excellent and fast!!!!! It is a great product.


A Snoozer
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!
