GUITAR HERO: AEROSMITH

Who is to blame for this? Guitar Hero is the most popular video game franchise in the country right now and the makers of the game have wisely decided to expand it by offering an entire game devoted to the songs of one band, and the band they chose to define this first stride in a new direction is FUCKING AEROSMITH? A band that had 2 albums with songs ranging from good to competant 30 years ago and have spent the rest of their lives since then devoted not only to destroying what legacy they could have been survived by, but completely obliterating it and burying it under dozens of horrible, unlistenable crap. Putting out an album like every 5 years and coming back trying to show everyone that they're still with it like they're your shitty aunt's boyfriend you see just as frequently at family reunions, except this time it's like "Hey, guys check it out, we're in a VIDEO GAME!" Big fucking deal. They were already in a video game, having been captured by terrorists or something and you've got to save them by shooting a ton of people and throwing aerosmith CD's at them. If you win, although you wasted a bunch of time, I guess you beat the game, if you lose, Aerosmith dies. It seems like an easy choice. And these diluted self-important nutsacks think any terrorist would consider using them as some sort of bargaining chip?! Get real.

In closing, I hate Aerosmith.
