Rocksmith 2014 Edition - Xbox One

I owned this game for PC before I got an Xbox One. It was fun on the computer but much better on the Xbox. I can't honestly say it has taught me to play guitar but I have enjoyed pretending I could play by using the game.

This game is AWESOME! It's a game yet you're actually LEARNING an instrument?! I think alot of people will be disappointed if they have never played an instrument before. This is not guitar hero, you are actually learning how to play the guitar. It comes full of lessons starting from how to pick, sliding, to learning chords. My best recommendation with this would be, give it time. Keep playing 30 minutes to an hour a day. Don't get discouraged after a 2-3 weeks if you've never played before, you'll start to play songs and then something magical happens while you're fumbling through a song and you get it. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to learn guitar, whether they have played another instrument or not!

I bought this after my I got a nice guitar and figure I could use some nice tutorials. This game is great and has really helped me move around the fret board more easily and better understand how to play my guitar. Its fun but at the same time challenging! It also bring the cable which important to have in order to connect your guitar to the game.

It's fun AND you learn how to play the guitar. I picked up a used guitar from the pawn shop, plugged it in, and was learning from the start. You start off learning all the basics and slowly move up. This is great for beginners and experts alike because you can also skip ahead to more challenging portions of the game. This is a great way to get kids interested in music. You learn so much in such a short amount of time. 5 Stars doesn't even speak high enough for this. I would still recommend picking it up when it goes on sale. 80 bucks is great for the game, but saving a little on it to spend more on a guitar is better.

Rocksmith 2014 is so much fun and makes it much easier to learn songs. The upgrades to the in song tools make it easy to learn parts you struggle with and it takes you at your pace. Plus it let's you get all the songs from the previous game, sadly not for free. If you have an electric guitar collecting dust, or if you just got your first beat up six-string from the second hand store, or bass guitar, Rocksmith 2014 can teach you more songs to impress your friends. It also has a studio option that allows you to make your own tunes, but when I tried that it seemed a bit clunky. Another improvement on this latest version is it allows you to choose to play lead or rhythm guitar so you can learn the parts of the song you wanna learn and improve the techniques you wanna improve. Deffinately worth every penny, if anything just for the cord alone!

The game does exactly as it is advertised. I had some experience playing the guitar when I bought the game and thought I would breeze through it, boy was I wrong. This game has helped me fine tune some of my shortcomings from being self taught and the lessons are well organized. I gave it a four star rating because I did and still do have a had time understanding some of the settings.

I love this game! It has a lot of great songs with more available for download. The game let's you work on drills or attempt songs. The game will recommend portions of the song to practice and suggest other drills to help you improve. As you learn more of the song additional notes are added. The only thing it doesn't do is put the practice time in for you.

This game is pretty neat in that it uses your actual guitar as the controller. I like how it starts out teaching you the songs with basic notes and chords but increases the complexity as it detects how well you're currently playing. I've played guitar for years, not sure if I would necessarily use this to learn guitar, but it''s still fun.
