This game was basically an expansion to guitar hero 3. Almost exactly half of the songs are aerosmith songs. It was much easier than every other guitar hero, with a grand total of about 2 difficult songs.
The only important difference between this game and guitar hero 3 are the hammer-ons and pull-offs. They work the same way they did in gh2, where the hammer-on doesn't count if you hit the fret button too early.
Overall it's a pretty sweet game especially if you like aerosmith, however I don't think it's worth the money right now ($60). Wait for it to come down a bit.

Graphics are great. the band looks pretty realistic. the song list is good, though some of them I could have done without, however there are not as many songs as on previous titles. While some of the bands signature songs are here, there are also some lesser known ones that could have been replaced with much better ones, but that's just my opinion. the controls are the same as guitar hero 3 and have pretty much the same sensitivity in regards to timing, which is a good thing. overall I am very pleased with this one. If you're looking for a really fun game, "walk this way"!!

I really liked this installment of Gh though it's more of a party game. the graphics were well done with great sound quallity and key registry. i especially liked how the croud was integrated into the songs on career mode where they would sing along like at a real concert. all in all a well done game looking forward to the next.

You get what you expect

Guitar Hero Aerosmith is great game, supposing you loved the previous Guitar Heroes, like most everyone did. Just be forewarned, there really is nothing but Aerosmith (excluding the remixes). I know this seems like an obvious point, but I've known a few people who didn't expect this for some reason, and were dissapointed. So remember, you get what you pay for.
On a brighter note, this still has exciting Guitar Hero action that we've come to expect from the series. Easy playability for beginner players, and for more experienced shredders, absolutely insane finger tapping solos. Also, as an Aerosmith fan, it feels pretty darn good to rock out with Steve Tyler and the boys. So really, this game rides on the fact that you like Aerosmith, and you like Guitar Hero. If both of these are true, then you'll love this game.
There is still one major issue for me that has remained from previous Guitar Hero games. Some of the hammers in the songs are insanely liberal. By this, I mean, there is a large margin of error to be able to hit the notes at the right time. During the more complicated portions of the pieces, I feel like I'm just hitting whatever frets I want to, and it counts as correct for the game. Having come from lots of Rock Band, this is a little bit dissapointing, since it doesn't help me improve. Though, it still kinda feels cool to get them all right. I would just prefer a system that was a little strict.
All in all, a good game. Just know what you're buying when you buy it, and you'll be very happy.
