About the Game
Band Hero is a karaoke/rhythm based game, similar to the Guitar Hero games , but directed at the pop loving teenage crowd, as well as a more group based party game (unlike with guitar hero, full band instruments are included from the beginning of the series). The instruments are the same as in the more recent GH games.

You can either play alone on any of the instrument careers, or you can play with up to three friends on one console or online to compete with other players and bands from across the world.
Standout Features
- Songs featured include Duran Duran's Rio , Don McLean's American Pie , Evanescence's Bring Me To Life and Queen's Crazy Little Thing Called Love .

Player support includes Co-Op.
Presentation & Atmosphere
If you are doing the vocals for your band, you have to sing along in time to the music, matching the pitch as closely as possible.
