Description
You've got the rhythm, raw talent and drive to shred the axe, wail on the drums or scream into the mic — so why not unleash your musical talent while embarking on an epic journey to save rock 'n' roll? Power Gig: Rise of the SixString thrusts the opportunity for real musical simulation into your hands by giving you a chance to step up your game and play chords on a guitar controller that can be used as an actual guitar when you're looking to rock out on an amp or to the music in your head when not playing the game. Power Gig features a massive list of songs — most have never been featured in any video game before — providing you with exclusive artists like the Dave Matthews Band, Kid Rock and Eric Clapton in addition to a slew of other great musicians, including upcoming indie artists. Power Gig knows you have what it takes to become one of the greats, so why not learn from the greats?Rise of the SixString blends great music simulation with great storytelling — when you play, you're following an incredible storyline as enthralling characters while you climb to the top of the rock 'n' roll food chain. Whether you're looking for the challenge of playing chords or the fun of hitting the notes at just the right moment, this game gives you the choice. Just ask yourself one last question before taking the stage — where do your shredding loyalties lie?

Trying to capitalize on rock band n guitar hero may sound like a good idea but we've been over saturated wit it. The price is the only positive wit some a decent playlist.

At this price you can't really complain too much. It gives you a reason to dust off the old guitar hero guitars and give a fresh game a whirl. If nothing else, get a few achievement points. Don't expect something on par with GH/RB.

If you're bored and don't want to spend a lot of money purchase this game. I paid $2.99 and played for about 2 hours. Money well spent.

Bought this for my 14 yr son. He played it and he didn't like it. He said the graphics suck and it takes some getting used to. See he has all the "Rock Bands" games and he is pretty good with them. He said he will only play this one like once a year to give him something different but other wise stick to his regular ones.
