A partial listing of the 40-plus tracks contained within Neversoft's upcoming music title Guitar Hero: Aerosmith (PS2, PS3, X360, Wii) has been revealed, detailing a number of songs from Aerosmith as well as other groups that are, in one form or another, close to Steven Tyler and crew.

In addition to expected Aerosmith hits such as "Sweet Emotion" and "Make It," the game will also feature Mott the Hoople's "All the Young Dudes," Cheap Trick's "Dream Police," "I Hate Myself for Loving You" by Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, and a cover of The Kinks' "All Day and All Night."

While most tracks unveiled thus far have been master recordings, GameSpot reports that Aerosmith was forced to re-record several songs, including "Making It," as the master tracks were missing. According to the outlet, the game's tracklist will be roughly 60% Aerosmith, and 40% other bands that "either inspired Aerosmith, played with Aerosmith, or are liked by Aerosmith."

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is expected to arrive on PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Wii this June. Read on for a full list of the known tracks at this time: ... Read more

Activision today announced that it will continue the Guitar Hero craze with Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, due out in June for PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii.

The game will put you in the shoes of the five member band, following their career from the first performance up till Aerosmith's current status of "rock royalty". As with Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock, the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions will be developed by Neversoft, with Vicarious Visions behind the Wii edition and Budcat handling the PlayStation 2 iteration.

"Not only is songwriting a bitch, but then it goes and has puppies," commented Aerosmith lead singer Steven Tyler. Reports of an Aerosmith-centered Guitar Hero appeared last fall, with Activision recently confirming that three new Guitar Hero titles are due out this year.

"We've put a lot of ideas into the game so that fans can have fun interacting with our music, getting inside our body of work and learning about the band's history," added guitarist Joe Perry.

To commemorate the announcement, owners of the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 editions of Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock will be able to download the Aerosmith song "Dream On" for free from the Xbox Live Marketplace and PlayStation Network Store between February 16-18.
