Guitar Hero: Aerosmith

Game: Guitar Hero: Aerosmith.
Rating: 9/10

Well, we haven't played any other versions of Guitar Hero,
other than Aerosmith,
so we can't compare this one to them,
but the only real difference is the songs, anyway, right?

So, Guitar Hero seems pretty cool, overall.
Yes, it takes a lot of teamwork from the three of us:
Alex on the Keys,
Ron 'plucking' the 'strings',
and Zelos doing the Whammy bar.
But once we got that down, it turned out to be fun.

The idea of Guitar Hero is that you hit a lever,
representing the plucking motion of a guitar,
as you hold down the color key that matches the one on screen.
You have to pluck it in sync with the notes on screen.
It's a very interesting, and effective, gaming experience,
added to by great songs and awesome graphics.

The customization is astounding, too.
As you go through, playing songs, you earn cash.
You can use this to purchase may things:
new outfits, guitars, characters, and bonus things.
You use the outfits and guitars to customize your character of choice.

It takes a while to get used to the controls, but well worth it.
Even easy mode, which uses three buttons, can pose a challenge,
but as you progress and get better you can select a harder mode,
which introduces the fourth, and then fifth, button,
and also notes that require more than one button to be pressed.
The notes come in patters, depending on the song,
which can range from very simple to very challenging.
Of course, there are verses to the songs, a chorus, and bridges, too;
it's much more than one pattern throughout.

Overall, Guitar Hero seems to be a wonderful game!
