Band Hero is in many way exactly like guitar hero 5. but what sets band hero above the rest is it use of modern day music. now by no means im i a hillery duff or taylor swift fan. so when i saw they were on this game i had my doubts. the good news is u dont HAVE to play those songs. and around those ones u got alot of quality songs both pop and rock. the other great feature of this game is that is rated E for everyone. all the songs are good for the younger kids and the ones that are iffy are a little censored. but not to a point that is totally noticeable. they did go a little far with the censoring tho. when playing American pie by don. they censored whiskey?!?! but u gotta do what u gotta do for a E rating i guess. anyway although this game is a tad more girly than its sister games its by far the best songs and graphics for a music game yet.Read full review
I want to say that this is possibly one of the best band games out there period! Band Hero has it all guest apperiances, interactive bacgrounds, and totally cutom characters and instuments. plus you have to think who was out first hmmm.... Guitar Hero the same makers that make Band Hero so it has to be great. I decided to buy this because i played it over a friends houseand it was great. In closing i just want to say it is a great game overall and is fun for the whole family. Oh and by the way, Rock Band instruments do work with this game. I know cause i tried.
Band Hero was the first GH game I have ever bought. I was quite impressed with the graphics and the fun gameplay. After a couple weeks, I found that I was scrolling up and down through the song list only to come out with a giant frown on my face. Yeah, the songs are bologna. They are really random. There is some stupid pop-ish stuff, country, rock-ish.... blah! The guitar parts are not even for guitar in some songs. Like have you ever heard the awesome guitar in YMCA? I sure haven't. It is really weird. The drumming, I have to admit, is pretty fun. Compared to GHWT, it is not as repetitious rather than just having two pads and a bass pedal to play on. All in all, it is a good game. If you are concerned with good lyrics or are a huge fan of some of the songs it has to offer, go for it. It does get old really quick... but it is pretty good. An AVERAG3 game overall.Read full review

If you are a fan of the music game genre there is really no reason you shouldn't like this game atleast at its core. Its a bit more American Idol/pop/family fun feeling than some the other ones (other than Lego Rock Band). I personally am more into the Rock Band series of games but will gladly say if the price is right pick it up especially if you are into the GH:WT or GH5 games.
