The folks from Activision sent word on a special pre-order promotion going on with Guitar Hero: Aerosmith. Guitar Hero: Aerosmith features songs spanning their long chart-topping career as well as hits from their favorite groups like The Clash, Cheap Trick, Joan Jett and The Blackhearts and more. Pre-ordering will give you access to a special bundle which includes guitar, the exclusive Aerosmith faceplate, an Aerosmith tour book and of course, the game. (and don’t have a panic, the Guitar Hero III axe still works with GH: Aerosmith so you can simply buy the game alone)
Pricing is as follows:
$99 for Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii, $89 for PlayStation 2 wireless and $109 for the two-guitar (wired) PlayStation 2 bundle which includes both a black and silver guitar. I’m not sure if the pricing or bundle will change if you don’t pre-order. I’ll see if I can find out those details. That faceplate is rather sexy but I think I’m good without it.
[Update] I confirmed with the folks behind the news and the Aerosmith faceplate will not be sold separately. The only way to get it, is to pre-order. And the pricing is also only a pre-order bundle deal.

Now that sounds like a good bundle and one that I just might get. I love Aerosmith and am anxiously awaiting this game.

No offense to anyone, but “yawn.” I can see a Led Zeppelin-based GH, but not an Aerosmith one.

Oh Led Zepplin would be cool. Sorry but I’m going to pass on the GH line and just stick with Rockband. Now if GH starts letting me us the Rockband controller, then I’ll rethink things in that area. By the way, that Aerosmith guitar looks cool, but not cool enough to hook me.

RB is a great game, but to ME, GH3 has much better music. I get too distracted with all the lights with RB. I love Aerosmith, one of my favorites, so this game is a must get along with: SW:Force Unleashed and Aliens: Colonial Marines.
Got my new Alice Cooper Face Plate and I am loving it.

I haven’t played GH yet at all. This might be my entry point.
Only after GTA4 though.
