Now that the Guitar Hero franchise is well and truly dead, a lot of artists that may have been tied in to exclusive deals are now free to do what they want with their music.
Aerosmith is one such band.
After the enormously successful Guitar Hero Aerosmith, Rock Band owners have been chomping at the bit to fret away at Steve Tyler numbers. Now they can with a mix of classic and new songs from the band.
A massive six pack will be available via the Rock Band Network this week, as well as a bunch of other tracks.
