Aerosmith's "Dream On" Free for XBOX 360 Guitar Hero

"Dream On" was the first major hit for the rock band Aerosmith, appearing on their debut self-titled album in 1973. And now, avid Guitar Hero™ III: Legends of Rock players will be able to try out their chops on the power ballad, by downloading it free of charge from Xbox LIVE® Marketplace. The song track will be free for a limited time only: Saturday, February 16, 2 A.M. PT (approximately) to Monday, February 18, 2 A.M. PT (approximately).

So... if you are not firing up your newsreader over the weekend, you are too late ;) I LOVE LOVE LOVE Guitar Hero (and Rock Band for that matter), and am downloading this as we speak.  The free download is a promo for the upcoming Guitar Hero®: Aerosmith® game.

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith will be the first music-based game to feature a single band, and gamers will be able to experience Aerosmith's GRAMMY® winning career, from their first gig to becoming rock royalty.

Alright... you can tell by the number of ® and ™s in this post that I copied liberally from the press release.  I hate it when people do that ;)  The press release does include a quote from Steve Tyler with a few words that I probably wouldn't repeat to my kids, so go check it out.

I wasn't able to find out a whole lot about the game itself at its website, other than the fact that you can preorder it. It will probably have an animated guy with a big mouth, Joe Perry, and some rockin' tunes.  I wonder if Liv Tyler will show up at all ;)
