Guitar Hero: Aerosmith To Feature Drums, Microphone Support

Boston (dbTechno) - According to a listing on the web site of Best Buy, the newly announced Guitar Hero game, Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, will feature support for drums, as well as a microphone, when it releases on the Xbox 360, PS3, and Wii in June. Could this be Guitar Hero’s move to compete with Rock Band?

The listing Best Buy currently has for Guitar Hero: Aerosmith has the game releasing on June 29, 2008. All of the details below that are pretty much normal until you get towards the bottom.

Best Buy lists the features of the game, and they read as follows.

- Challenge you to perform the music of the legendary Aerosmith.

-Features well-known favorites such as Sweet Emotion, Dream On, Love in an Elevator, and Don’t Want To Miss a Thing.

-See if you can drum like Joey Kramer, play guitar like Joe Perry, and Brad Whitford, play bass like Tom Hamilton, and sing like Steven Tyler.

-Improve your in-game career by performing in the same venues as Aerosmith once did.

-See how you compare to a band that’s sold more than 150 million albums.

The key line in the features there is “See if you can drum like Joey Kramer, play guitar like Joe Perry, and Brad Whitford, play bass like Tom Hamilton, and sing like Steven Tyler.”

This leads many to believe that the new Guitar Hero is going for the same set-up as Rock Band currently has, with a guitar, bass, microphone, and drum support to make a full band.

We will have to see if this was an error on the part of Best Buy, or has more truth to it than fiction.
