$60 for this? Come on July 29, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Let me start off by saying that I'm a big fan of Guitar Hero and Rock Band games. I think they are a blast and a nice change from the controller.
I was upset at how short this game was compaired to Guitar Hero 3. There is only one battle against Joe Perry compaired to three battles in GH3. There is about 13 less songs as well. The game is just way too short and unsatisfying for $[...] Do yourself a favor and rent this one as you can beat all the songs in a matter of a few hours.
Boring and Really Easy July 26, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I beat this game in about 3 hours, never failed a song, 5 starred 95% of the songs on my first try. Pathetically easy. Not enough songs. Activision is just trying to make some easy money. Do not buy it...just rent it.
Wheres crazy? July 21, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is not an "Amazing",or a "Crazy",or a "Jaded" game....it has none of those songs.
one would expect these songs to be obligatory in an Aerosmith game...only fillers on this mediocre game.
Nothing but an expansion pack July 20, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I rented this game a couple of days ago and the title says it all; Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is nothing but an expansion pack. I believe it would have made more sense (to the consumer anyway) to have all the songs as DLC for Guitar Hero III rather than charging full price for virtually a half of a game. It is clear that Neversoft wants to milk as much money out of its customers as it can with the least amount of effort and GH:Aerosmith proves this fact.
As you already know this latest edition of Guitar Hero features Aerosmith songs. However contrary to what I originally thought; all the songs are NOT Aerosmith. Out of the 31 songs in the game only 20 or so of them are Aerosmith tracks. In career mode you have to play two Non-Aerosmith songs to be able to play Aerosmith. This goes on for every venue and it gets rather repetitive and boring. Though it's JUST like GHIII it's just not as fun. There is nothing different between this and GHIII except for a couple of new animations and the venues. All the characters are the same, expect you can unlock the right to play with Aerosmith members or DMC from RUN-DMC. But honestly after playing through this game one time and beating it, I haven't picked it up again and have no desire to keep playing just to get the new characters.
The difficulty is no where as near as hard as GHIII and I was able to beat all but one song on Expect on my first try. Instead of wasting my rental time trying to beat that one last song, I went back and beat it on hard just so I can get finished with it and in one day I beat it. There is one boss battle in this game, but its no where near as ridiculous and cheap as Lou is on GHIII.
While I have also beaten GHIII and Rock Band, I still go back and play them regularly, however after beating GH:Aerosmith I have no desire to play it anymore.
I must reiterate that this game is nothing but an expansion pack and Neversoft has a lot of nerve charging full price for it. It only has a little over half the songs as GHIII so I am thinking it should be just a little over HALF the price, but no its the same price as GHIII. Unless you are a HUGE, die hard guitar Hero fan that absolutely must have every single Guitar hero game that ever came out, including Rock the 80's which was also full price from what I can remember, then this game is only rental worthy. Do not waste your money on this half of a game. Rent it, beat it, and save 50 or so bucks to use towards a full game.
Way overpriced compared to other similar games July 9, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Was anticipating this game with great enthusiasm as I am huge fan of Aerosmith, to only get disappointed by the fact that
1) So many songs are NOT by Aerosmith, but the band was inspired by. 2) Such a short playlist and song selection 3) Ease of gaining points and going through the game, not challenging enough 4) My favorite "Crazy" and "Don't want to miss a thing" were not there
Game would be great if you have nothing to compare it to, if it's your first experience with GH or Rockband products.
