Though suspiciously similar to Guitar Hero 5, Band Hero still offers fun rhythm/party action.

GameSpot 8.0            

Band Hero makes fake plastic rock easy to pick up, family friendly, and a whole lot of fun.

 

GiantBomb 6.0            

It's Guitar Hero 5 with different graphics and a more diverse setlist. If you like these 65 songs, you should probably get Band Hero.

This charming rhythm game is especially good for first-timers, but it's a little light on content.

Because you needed your Rock Band to be more adorable, right?

Plastic doesn't resonate.
