Rating:8.5
An appealing alternative to the Xbox 360's bloated first person shooter library.
Rocksmith is a refreshing change from the typical first person shooter releases for the 360. It's been well worth the $80 for the game. Although there is a bundle with an Epiphone Les Paul, I opted to buy a used Squier... Read Full Review

I cannot say enough good things about this game.
I'm 38, been playing guitar on and off for the past 6 or so years. I never really got very good and at times got very frustrated with the learning process. Plus when you have kids you never really have a lot of time to... Read Full Review

Great game. Really picks up after playing several hours. Great potential for playing an instrument. Big step forward.
Seemed kinda a dull at first but picked up rapidly after that. Great response to a real guitar. Very accurate. The steady progression of difficulty works great! Amp option is amazing. Lots of dollars in sound equipment t... Read Full Review

A teaching tool disguised as a game. You won't learn sheet music, but you'll rip chords off the guitar nevertheless!
I have picked up a number of "guitar" games, over the years, but none of them ever gave the hope of actually *learning* the guitar. Rocksmith fixes that, in spades. I have a new guitar, the game, and an XBox and that... Read Full Review

I'm totally blown away by Rocksmith. I had high hopes, and I was still amazed.
I got excited about this sort of thing when Rock Band 3 was announced, and then quickly bummed out when it turned out that you had to use their guitar, not even your own guitar with a MIDI pickup. Even though I wasn't i... Read Full Review

Blistering fun while actually learning to play!
I've had the game 1 day. I'm 3 songs in and having a blast. The progressive difficulty is extremely helpful and challenging. The interface is brilliant. Lots of tutorials and videos. Many side games and challenges to hel... Read Full Review

Surprisingly great guitar teaching tool with just a few flaws.
So far had this game for two days and am really enjoying it. I used to play guitar years ago but had given it up so I was basically starting from scratch this time around. The songs start out slow, only giving you a fe... Read Full Review

Awesome.
I have always wanted a guitar game that taught me guitar and allowed me to play some of my favorite songs with the rest of the "band". This game delivered. Some reviews have seen complain that the game is too hard or th... Read Full Review

An new take on the guitar game genre, that actually teaches you how to play the guitar!
This game will actually teach you how to play, it's difficulty modifies it self to your skill level on the fly, it only gets as hard as the song is to play, it doesn't throw in extra notes or chords. Great if you are a ... Read Full Review
