Overall Guitar Hero Aerosmith was an entertaining buy. I would only recommend this game to the die hard Aerosmith fan. The game is interesting in the fact that it takes you down the biographical road of Aerosmith as you progress through the career mode. The game features fairly realistic characters of the band as well as video interviews in between each venue. The career is a wimpy 31 songs only 20-21 songs of which are even by Aerosmith. The game does offer 40 tracks overall. If you are looking for some easy achievements this is the game for you, it is nothing like the achievements of GHIII.

Overall i would say this is fan buy only.

The price was great for the wireless guitar and game. Shipping was fast and everything looked great. We have spent many hours playing the game so far and the guitar is great.

Do yourself a favor and buy the bundle. The Aerosmith guitar is worth it. This game is a must for Aerosmith fans. The interview clips with the band before every stage is pretty cool. Gameplay is great. Music is great. I only with that there would have been more songs. Overall great game.

My kids and I got Guitar Hero III for Christmas and pretty much instantly wanted a second guitar to play together. This was a great way to get a second guitar and another game to play at the same time. The cost of this edition was $3 more with the wireless guitar (Dec 2008), what a deal!

The guitar is still the same plastic guitar from the other games, but has an Aerosmith faceplate on it and includes some more stickers. My kids are 8 and 10 and they can play the guitar on easy mode.

We enjoy playing career coop on GH III and that is sadly missing in this edition. You can still do single songs you have unlocked together, but there is no career coop, too bad.

My kids have a vague notion of who Aerosmith is from the Rockin Roller Coaster at Disney World. They enjoyed watching the behind the scenes takes on how the band came to be so famous. Some of the lyrics are a bit racy for their age group, but you can't hear them most of the time. It is the music that they focus on while trying to strum the notes.

I actually enjoyed this game here are my reasons:

1. Difficulty in easier then guitar hero 3. Because of this I was able to improve my playing drastically.
2. There are very few instances of Notes being thrown up in the guitar solos. I remember in GH3 when all of a sudden a 100 notes with no coherent sense would spam the screen. This doesn't happen here.
3. Easy Achievements: By the time I had finished expert mode I had unlocked over 550 points. I barely reached over 100 in GH3.
4. Great Replay Value: This is the first game in the series that I actually want to complete because I know that I can with some work.

The only downside is that it is missing two songs I would have really loved "Jaded" and "Don't Wanna Miss A Thing" which were the two songs Aerosmith sang at the half time show.

***Also people are bashing this game for the lack of songs but they should note that this is an expansion pack of the first game and that expansion packs never contain near the same content as the original game itself.

Excellent deal for this price,
I didn't know it could be this much fun!
so far the game looks great.
According to the box, there are a total of 40 songs
in the game, the game description on amazon doesn't state that.

I enjoyed this game very much. Not a huge Aerosmith fan, but I like them enough to enjoy the game, and rock out on some good old tunes. My 9 year old son even liked the music enough to finish the game in co-op mode. All in all a great purchase. You get a good game and a wireless guitar for under [...] and to me that's a good deal. They did a good job with the song selections from both Aerosmith and the opening bands. Hope others enjoyed it as much as I did.

This is the best way to get a wireless guitar and a game. The price was the cheapest and it is a good choice for someone just getting in the series (like me). If you like, buy the other older games (just the games) cheap! If not you're not out a whole lot of money!

From some of the other reviews that said only Aerosmith fans should buy this game, I was expecting the entire game to be nothing but Aerosmith songs. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the game is like the others, many different songs for each level. At the end, the final act is a song by Aerosmith. The only problem I have is that on the Aerosmith songs, the design of the screen changes a bit and I found it difficult to see (it makes things look 'busy'). One great thing is the design of the guitar. It really stands apart from the regular white guitars.

So glad I bought this! Guitar looks great! The game is standard HERO fare with a lot of good music to just sit back and jam to! It never gets old.
