Rocksmith is a great way for people to pick up guitar. Personally, I haven't really used my guitar for a while, so I can use this as an excuse to start guitar playing again. The game is designed to encourage players to keep building their skills and even has fun guitarcade games. The main problem with this game is that the game has no way to give you the full guitar arrangement of a song for experienced guitar players. Everyone starts out playing only a few notes of a riff and it takes a while to add more notes to the full part.

Lots of songs on disc and a ton more available via DLC. Game scales difficulty based on your performance, so its always at just the right difficulty level.

This is a nice program and great for what it is - a fun introduction to guitar instruction. This game will not take you to levels that a hands on instructor could, of course. But it's a great tool to use to introduce one to the guitar and to determine if guitar is something interesting enough to actually spend time and money on lessons fore.

I really love this game. I have been playing guitar for 20 years, and I still found this game fun. You play along with songs and use a real guitar, unlike Rockband and Guitar Hero. The soundtrack of the game itself wasn't my cup of tea, but there are lots of great DLC tracks. The biggest draw back is the long load times every time anything needs to change.

Rocksmith is a great tool to help learn the basics of guitar. It's easy to navigate and any age can use this game to help them learn by making it fun. I definitely like that it helps you to tune your guitar as well. This is a very useful and entertaining game. I would recommend this to anyone who is interested in learning the basics.

Great product to help you learn to play real guitar, while being layed out into a game. Great songs with many more downloadable tracks via xbox live. Overall a great game if you like music games.
