Exactly, I'm not going to post a link to something without reading what I linked to. I know how it works. It'd be hardcore to expect a game to hear a song and then instantaneously come up with buttons to hit based on tones and pitches. And I wouldn't - and shouldn't - expect vocals in that due to major copyright infringement issues.

The point is that anybody who really likes a specific song or band will have access to the songs. For those of us who try but suck on a real guitar (me), it's a great addition and I won't mind for a second sitting there and coming up with a realistic guitar part to a song. They can also be posted online and rated to know if somebody else has already made a good version of the song. I'm just not seeing a downside to this.

It does. But for Hard/Medium/Easy. Expert is what you tap out. Hard/Medium/Easy are generated by the software.

I'm not sure if this holds true for the Xbox and PS versions of Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, but I noticed on my Wii game case thingy that it says "Aerosmit" on the bass drum on the front cover o.O

I am getting the rockband kit on friday hopefully. I lost my love of Guitar Hero after 2. Rock the 80's was garbage, 3 was garbage, and well Aerosmith is alright.

I just play all the new guitar hero games on Frets on Fire, no point spending 60 bucks on a new game which doesn't do much different then the previous.

All I can say is they need Running Wild by Airborne in any rhythm based game and ill be hooked.

My step-dad and I just got Rock Band for the Xbox 360. I play the drums and he's the guitarist. We've been hooked on it since ^_^.

If it only covers the one band, $60 is a bit steep.

i would wait and buy it used or when the price drops. probably sounds like you would get sick of the one band fast if yer not a big fan (i know i would)

im dont understand advertising that well...do you think guitar hero paid aerosmith? or would aerosmith pay guitar hero for making this game?

Personally, Rock the 80's is my favorite out of 1,2, 80s and 3.

I could play Hold On Loosely and Turning Japanese all day and never get tired of it.

Guitar hero is harder than rock band, so i think i'll be getting GH4 instead of rock band 2.

I'm not gonna get Gh aerosmith though, as i never listen to them -.-

Guitar Hero for the DS is worth a play too. It's nto as hard as console guitar hero games, but it's fun and still a bit challenging.

The only bad part is there are only 26 songs.....
5 are from previous guitar hero games, and 1 is unlockable( I'm not your game boy.)

It's about 60% Aerosmith/Joe perry, 40% others. So there's at least some non Aerosmith stuff in there.
