More than half of the Aerosmith songs appearing will be the original master tracks.

Overview

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is basically an expansion to the popular game Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock. While both games include a different set list and different venues, gameplay is noticeably similar. The fretboard graphics are the same in both games, and the Star Power and Multiplier tables are as well. However, the visual detail in the guitarists is increased which makes the graphics turn out much better. You can also play many different game modes in the game, such as Career Mode, Co-op Career Mode, Online play, Quickplay, and many others. In Career Mode, you get to follow Aerosmith's career and their rise to fame. You play at real venues and perform Aerosmith songs and songs inspired by Aerosmith so you get to rise to fame as well.
