I also think that once this RockSmith game comes out, it will offer a way for many more people to get into playing...it's always best, IMHO, to learn playing the songs you like.

I will pay a lot of money for that game if its as good as it looks, its like guitar hero but with a real guitar so i can plug it into an amp instead of an xbox when their are people i want to impress hanging around

Yeah, I wasn't "pimping" it for no reason...looks good, has potential. I'll buy it, for sure, just because it is what it is...

Yes, it does. Before every song you tune up, play some simple stuff, then it's time to rock. I think if you played it each day for a month, by the ned of it, you'd be able to tune up fairly well by ear. I still use a tuner, even now, jsut as force of habit. Picku pthe guitar cold, play a bit, you need to re-tune beucase the strings have warmed, and stretched.


I'll shut up about it now...check thier facebook page for more vids. I'll definitely be picking RockSmith up, I guess I'll have to post some vids when it comes out in the fall. I am more eager for this game than BF3, even.

Hah, that's cool. I was actually gonna say that most of the people who got into it for reasons other than the usual probably had their parents start them at a young age or were otherwise immersed in guitar and music in general.

lol drum-wise for me it was when I first saw drums as a kid and wanted to badly play with it at a church and no-one would let me, I guess that desire I had stuck and developed overtime. I got my hands on my first kit during highschool which was around 6 years ago but then it was an acoustic so neighbours complained alot and I didn't get to play as much, it wasn't til I left high school and got a job til I was able to afford my own electric equipment and since then I can't stand not playing at least an hour each day.

When I have kids I definitely try to get them into music asap, I'd prefer them to have an open mind about music genres though. :toast:

My kids do. Shouldn't be hard...they'll find thier own faves, of course.

I had a phase of listening to nothing but metal throughout high school and thought every other genre of music was rubbish created by the media to brainwash people into buying their products :roll::roll::roll:...

Anyway, rocksmith looks great I've always wanted to try learning guitar what better way to do it than with a game :rockout:
