Rocksmith

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I like the sound of this.
I don't have a console of any sort but I'm tempted to get one.
I hate the concept of these atrificial guitar games but at least this encourages the yoof of today to actually learn the guitar.

Ummmmm yes, my other half is thinking about this too for Xbox - might make a change from him shouting interminable rubbish during Black Ops or whatever it is. Didn't bother with the Guitar Hero stuff but this looks interesting as you can play your weapon of choice - guitar or bass, some half decent songs on the basic list, I'd have a go at:

"In Bloom" Nirvana 1991
"Breed" Nirvana 1991
"Go With the Flow" Queens of the Stone Age 2002

It's a nice game.
Lame graphics, but fun to play (pretty much a Wii Game haha).

Just an advice - If you try to play it using Only the HDMI (Console-Hdmi-TV) you gonna have a bad time, for some creepy reason, this game have a HUGE Image-Sound Delay with HDMI, so put your PS3/360 on a Optical-Audio-Out - Or Crash and Burn.

Still, nice game, need more 80's and more cowbells.

Now, i'll waste my time with Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition.

My non-musical housemate has ordered it. He's asked me to join him (as a bassist rather than a singer, heh) so I'll report back.

Not holding out hope!
