The final venue better be Waynestock. Seriously, that would be so epic.

Reasons I would buy GH: Aerosmith
Dream On

Anyone else think they're making a mistake giving that song away? I mean, it benefits us, but definitely takes away a little incentive to buy the game when it come out. I guess we just wait and see.

Also, is this Guitar Hero jumping the shark, or did that happen earlier?

Is it sad that I'm actually pretty excited for this just for the bands that have opened for them and could have tracks on the game?

Don't get me wrong, this is a cool idea, but I think there are some pretty valid concerns that one needs to keep in mind:

1. Does Aerosmith have 30 songs that have actual *good* guitar parts? While many do, some of the suggested tracks I would consider tame at best.

2. This expansion follows the same model (track numbers, pricing point, etc) as GH:80's - which met with mixed reviews. One cannot count on Best Buy offering a first day $10 off again.

3. One would expect it to use the engine, artwork, and note charters as the base GH3 engine, which has endured some criticism.

4. Extreme focus on one band. On the Rock Band front, there has been an enduring criticism that fans would prefer variety to a singular/limited band focus. This could potentially be the most focused expansion/DLC/whatever yet... and not everyone is a huge Aerosmith fan.

It's on my radar. I'll give it a serious purchasing look. I'm glad to see them trying something new, but it is far from an instant purchase in my book.

Now I don't mean to hate, let me start by saying Aerosmith is good. No doubt.

But are they really good enough to have an entire game where there are so many other bands that are better?

Aerosmith is a welcome addition to my eyes in GH normally, where the format of so many different genres generally makes them stick out as a bit of an oddball. And usually in a good way.

But this is ridiculous, there's no way Aerosmith has enough songs that sound different or have guitar parts that are really worth playing...

I was sorta hoping for something like...

Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks All the Indie Bands You're Never Heard Of

Or if it had to be one artist, why not someone who's got enough difference in their songs to make the game worth buying? Metallica, the Stones, the Who... Aerosmith is just not as marketable as them.

No offense to Aerosmith or their fans by this, it's just the point of view I get. I doubt there are many people here who disagree that this won't sell well, unless it has a low price tag (in which case I myself will buy it as well).

Quick Add-On: How about a GH expansion featuring rock songs from other countries (many of the GH3 bonus songs reflect this). After songs like Avalancha, Hier Kommt Alex, and others, I was totally pleased.

I may check this out depending on the price tag as as much as a fan of there's I am I dont want to pay over the odds for a game based around one band I can take or leave

anyone notice that they never said that every song in the game would be by Aerosmith? There is a possibility there will be non-Aerosmith songs in the game. There could be opening bands or something that play different songs. They'll most likely just have the biggest hits, but I would think the final encore would be Aerosmith, but which song? If its Train Kept a Rollin' I'll shoot someone. Not that I don't like it, but I play it enough on Rock Band.
