Did you see the shark, I sure did. I thought that Guitar Hero Aerosmith was the signal of the end of the Guitar Hero franchise. I was wrong. No matter how good you are at the game you have to admit that you look like a spastic monkey flailing around with a kids plastic toy guitar while playing Guitar Hero. That’s not to say I don’t enjoy every minute I have spent playing Guitar Hero and its younger more evolved relative Rock band. However, I still understand that it’s silly and I look like a fool doing it. Slapping a fat piece of plastic to the back of a Nintendo DS forcing you to hold it like an awkward book while strumming with an action more closely related to flipping through the pages of your grandmothers romance novels looking for the bits about throbbing members and aching womanhoods takes looking like a stupid twit to whole new levels. Throw in a song that sounds like it should be aimed at the listeners of Radio Disney instead of an honest to satan rock station and that just closes the deal. Guitar Hero is dead and needs to be taken out behind the barn and quietly put out of its misery.
