Aerosmith Will Turn Its Fans Into Guitar Heroes

RedOctane’s and Activision’s Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is out for all the band’s fans and also rock enthusiasts.

Unfortunately, the game could have used a different approach, as most of its 40 songs are taken from the band’s early days, and when I say early days, I’m not referring to the 90s, but the 70s. For some of the people from the younger generations, this might lead to a difficulty in connecting with the band, as there are very few songs from the band’s last 10 years of activity.

Of course, it will be greatly appreciated by the band’s fans and it indeed delivers a good “rocking” feeling but the experience with such games is always better when you get to play a song you know rather than learning a new one. Amongst the songs present in the game, many might know Sweet Emotion, Dream On, Walk This Way and Love in an Elevator.

One of the game’s main assets is its extremely appealing graphics, which are very similar to Guitar Hero 3’s and manage to exceptionally capture the band’s motion.

The game includes several video clips with the band’s members talking about their yearly days and their rise to the current global popularity. The six stages are set in several key locations for the band, which include the New Jersey high school where they had their first gig, the Super Bowl and of course the Hall of Fame.

There are several rumors about the company’s plans to expand the game’s focus to other bands, such as Metallica and The Beatles.
