Aerosmith will feature in the new Guitar Hero game.

The game is released this summer and will include 30 Aerosmith songs.

Activision Inc who make the game told Billboard that: “It's just a completely new way to interact with this music and with Aerosmith, and we think there's more opportunity to do that in the future.”

They went on to explain that 'Guitar Hero: Aerosmith' is “going to cover the 30-plus years of the band, from high school all the way through the rock superstardom of today”.

I'm not thrilled about this although it will be nice to play all Aerosmith hits. I mean, can't they just release the songs as downloads for the 360 and spend some time figuring out how to innovate the GH series? Rockband is already out there eating a large piece of the pie, the guys from Activision should worry about getting the groove back.
