I have always had an issue of buying GH on the PS3 because of the lag delay that it has with the dongle and HDTV. I'm not sure what causes it but I've heard it's the TV (I have an Sony Bravia XBR4). The thing I love about this game is it finally adds the audio callibration setting, not just the touch which makes it more bearable to play. With game mode, this game has minimal lag (still noticeable though).
The huge thing I have against this game was that it was too easy to beat and the fact that it still uses a dongle.
In my honest opinion, this is a game you would want to rent, not purchase. After you play through it a couple times, it will just rot in your pile of "games beaten and now I don't know what to do with it besides sell it on ebay for a loss."
What's great about it: Audio Callibration was added
What's not so great: really easy to beat, Still uses a dongle

This is a great sequel to the blockbuster "Guitar Hero 3 Legends of Rock". While playing in career mode, the game is great and has a extremely high replay value. If your just about to buy this and haven't really played a lot of guitar hero, this is a great game for you. It's a lot easier than gh 3 and gh world tour.
What's great about it: graphics, entertaining
What's not so great: low number of songs, when beaten the game songs get boring

The game is just "ok". It feels more like an expansion pack rather than a complete game. If you're an Aerosmith fan and you're familiar with their career, then the game might be for you, however, most casual players will find that alot of their commercially popular hits are missing. Therefore, the game feels a bit lacking in that aspect.
Other than that, the game looks pretty much like Guitar Hero III. Except it has some Aerosmith cut scenes and some CGI animated Aerosmith characters. The game is easier than GH3 but it also feels shorter and can be passed quickly. That is where the lack of popular hits shows the flaw in the game. There are so few familiar songs that you don't really feel like popping in the game anymore once finished. Like I said, Aerosmith fans that are familiar with their career may like it, but the casual game player will not find enough in this game to be satisfying.
I did get the game on sale for $9.99. I would recommend it at that price as to me, it felt like an expansion pack. Anything higher, one would have to judge based on the content whether you like the available songs.
What's great about it: Some good Aerosmith songs included
What's not so great: Some good Aerosmith songs missing

I actually think this game is ok, but I thought that it was more on the average side of things. The venues are ok, the graphics are great, and the songs are good. Would I recommend buying it? In my opinion, it's right in the middle, so I would suggest renting it first.
What's great about it: Just ok, graphics are great
What's not so great: Expected it to be better, venues aren't too great
