Impulse Gamer writes: "Following the hot trail of Guitar Hero 5 comes Band Hero, Activision's latest music extravaganza that turns the humble gamer into a fully fledged rock star with personalized band to boot. Although in essence, the game is virtually a slightly different incarnation of Guitar Hero 5, the biggest different with Band Hero is probably the track listing which features singers and bands such as Taylor Swift and Culture Club which are more poppy than some of the more hardcore and alternative tracks of the aforementioned title. Even so, the game still contains some harder tracks such as The All American Rejects and classics like Devo's Whip It!"

It's pathetic how this is the ONLY band to sue over this,,,,, Ozzy, Aerosmith, Metallica, Lemmy, Slash, Van Halen, Nirvana all seem perfectly contempt. I would sue too :/ I mean if i was them then there's No doubt i'd have like no money either (pun intended).
