Not as much fun as Guitar Hero 5 Nov 04, 2009
By B. Appel Unfortunately, this game isn't as much fun as I was hoping. The songs are more "pop" than "rock" (that's intentional), but that also means that there just aren't a whole lot of great guitar riffs. In fact, you end up playing keyboard (i.e. "American Pie"), horns and other instruments on your guitar, which just seems out of place and unnatural.
There are a lot of fun songs to sing, and the drum patterns are enjoyable. It's nice to see different types of songs that what we're all used to, but the gameplay just doesn't pair up as well as the music in RB & GH does (maybe we need a keyboard hero?).
I was so pleased to see Paralyzer by Finger 11 (which would have been an appropriate song for the GH series as well) and the Taylor Swift songs are actually some of the best songs on the disk. You also get to import from your other Hero games, including GH5. In what is a nice touch, if you paid to import World Tour and Smash Hits songs into GH5, you won't have to pay to import them into Band Hero. After adding all the imports and downloads, the roster added up to 233 songs, which is nice when you're playing in a party setting.
As an interesting side note, Band Hero is touted as family friendly, so much so that they drop the lyric "whisky" from American Pie, but they include "Dirty Little Secret" whose entire meaning is less than family friendly (good song though).
All in all, it's good, not great, but mostly because the music style doesn't match what you're used to playing in a Guitar Hero/Rock Band game. So, you take the good with the bad: expanded music genre v. playing piano on your guitar.

The song selection aside... Dec 28, 2009
By K. Robertson The song selection is all a matter of personal preference; You either like the songs or you don't. I'm basing my review on the actual gameplay, which is awesome.
It's the same format as guitar hero 5, so if you like that setup, you will like this one. There's a career mode, and each song has an individual challenge with 3 levels of achievement (gold, platinum and diamond).
If you are a fan of rhythm games, which I am, and if you liked guitar hero 5, which I did, then you will probably like this game. The people who give the game low ratings because they don't like the songs, should have checked out the song list before they bought it.

Great For Non-Rock Songs Nov 29, 2009
By Cu2cool
"cu2cool"
This game was a nice alternative to Guitar Hero World Tour and Rock Band. It offers a wider variety than just rock, metal, and emo songs. I'm still waiting for more DLC pop songs that are more popular or recent than the included setlist, as some of the songs are outdated.
The pros to this game are the multiple mics capability. Some times people feel more comfortable singing with others which makes for a better party than, forcing someone to use the mic as the only instrument left. You do receive individual scores with the mics. There's also a party mode where people can jump in and out whenever they want to with the instruments. The only down side is that you can't choose the songs in party mode. Another nice option was the playlist option. Instead of having to pick songs for a playist by default like GHWT, you can turn that option on or off for Band Hero. So people don't get confused with either pressing the green button or the start button. (On Xbox360)
The cons to this game is that it follows the user interface like GHWT. Only the band leader can control the stats screen and choose songs. This gets annoying when your an impatient person and the band leader isn't paying attention to the game. Also, you can't choose your difficulty level right before each song. Instead you have to either back out to the players menu and change it there, or the individual instrument has to press start and change difficulty and restart the song. Either way it's more time wasted than Rock Band's simple difficulty menu before each song. Another annoyance for people with slightly imperfect eye-hand coordination is that Band Hero has less tolerance for error in hitting the notes. You pretty much have to hit them dead on or it will count as a miss. When I was playing I hit all the notes fine, but when my sister was playing she thought there was something wrong with all three of my guitars. Then we realized it was the game.
Overall, this game is fun to play if you're into the pop songs included. I'm sure there will be guys out there who aren't willing to sing Taylor Swift, Jesse McCartney and Hillary Duff, but it's definitely fun to watch if you can get them to do it. Good times....

Finally Good Music for Xbox360's Band! Jan 30, 2010
By Challenging Designs
"Challenging Designs Inc."
I got the Xbox360 RockBand 2 for my son for christmas because I love music and its something we can all join in on. Well the music that came with it wasn't all that hot. So I looked around. Then I saw a commercial on Taylor Swift's Band Hero. I purchased it and it's GREAT!! We all know the songs! They aren't heavy metal or punk, like RockBand. And they work great with the instruments that came with RockBand 2. I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS SOFTWARE! Everyone from my kids up to my parents enjoy joining in!

Das good Mar 03, 2010
By Floriana Walafont
"Vampseriesfan"
What a blast! Having been an avid gh player for about 4 years I am constantly looking to add to my collection. With the latest addition of band hero I have found a game with fun songs, great game play, and cool new tasks to complete. I really love these games, keep up the good work GH.
