We got this game with the Guitar hero 5 special offer, and have a nice long time with it before it was released for everyone, and it ROCKS! My Dad loves it, says it is his favorite Guitar hero next to the fifth installment and plays it a lot! The graphics are nice, average graphics for a band-titled GH. The song selection is superb, some wickedly awesome songs out there. The way Van Halen performs on stage is very cool and realistic and makes you feel like you're actually there.

Pros: Awesome track-list, great Van Halen presentation, it includes character creation, fun to watch, a real competition to the normal Guitar Hero legends.

Cons: Average graphics, weird non-Halen people.

Overall, this game rocks, and is defiantly worth at least a rent and a buy for Van Halen fans and if you haven't' heard of them, it s till worth a rent, its a fun!

Guitar Hero: Van Halen is the third and final band specific game in the series. Rather then dance with details, I'll jump right to the Pros and Cons:

Pros:
Decent Soundtrack (especially if you never really listened to VH)
Decent Graphis (If you enjoyed the GH: Metallica engine, this is no different)

Cons:
I only found two Con that made me ship this game back a day later.

And the lack of replay value in the songs. It seemed like a drag to go back and beat them again.

The unplayability of Drums and Guitar on Expert+ and Expert respectivly with Rock Band controllers. Having owned Metallica, I know Rock Band eqipment can lead to sucess, having beaten that game on Epert(+).
