Introducing the next stage in the evolution of the guitar game. Rocksmith is the first and only game where you can plug ANY real guitar into your console and actually LEARN while you PLAY.
Nothing plastic. Nothing fake. Just the most authentic guitar experience in music gaming. By plugging your electric guitar into your console, you’ll develop real skills and real styles while playing real music.
Featuring gameplay that automatically adjusts to your personal ability, and innovative game design that makes playing music visually intuitive, Rocksmith will engage experienced musicians as well as those who have never picked up a guitar before in their life.
You’ll unlock mini games to hone specific skills. You’ll be able to choose from a large catalogue of songs in different styles. And you’ll experience it all with an actual guitar. Nothing compares to playing a real guitar. Except playing Rocksmith.
The game will include the brand new Bass mode, offering players the opportunity to play bass guitar on all supported on-disc and downloadable songs.
Not only can players play the bass parts of songs, but bassists of all experience levels can also improve their skills with dedicated bass technique challenges and tutorial videos. Players can even use any 6-string guitar to emulate a 4-string bass. Tracking their learning has never been easier as bass progression is tracked separately from guitar progression. Last but not least, all songs can be played in multiplayer with one person playing the bass part and the other the guitar part.

When we say any guitar we mean any guitar
Whether it’s the guitar sitting in your attic that you have forgotten about up till now, or the guitar you are yet to buy, Rocksmith lets you plug any guitar into your console or computer. Electric guitar or electro-acoustic, as long as your guitar has a jack, you can play. And get plugged in right away as Rocksmith comes with a unique quarter-inch jack to USB cable!
Get Plugged In
Rocksmith will include a unique quarter-inch to USB cable that is the first of its kind, and will allow users to plug any real guitar with a quarter-inch jack directly into their Xbox 360®, PlayStation 3®, or PC. Developed exclusively for Rocksmith, this guitar cable is 11.25' and turns the guitar’s signal from analog to digital, allowing it to be recognised and played through video game consoles for the first time.
Real time adjustment levels: from beginner to rock god!
You love a challenge, but hate being overwhelmed. Rocksmith understands this, and knows exactly how far to push to keep you entertained. With addictive gameplay that adapts continuously to your personal skill level, you will automatically progress from single notes to complex chords at your own pace. Eventually you’ll be playing 100% of the actual guitar parts from the songs and the game will challenge you to step away from the notes on screen and play songs from memory. Imagine that. A video game that will get you stage-ready.
Bursting with Hits
One of the most satisfying moments for any guitar player is hearing yourself play your favourite song for the first time. Rocksmith has amassed an amazing library of songs from different music genres allowing players to experience those moments first hand. Whether you like classic rock bands such as The Rolling Stones, The Cure, Lynrd Skynrd or if you’re more into current chart-toppers such as The Strokes, Muse, Radiohead and The XX, we have you covered. And with our growing tracklist from metal to indie rock available for download, you will always find a song that suits your mood.
There’s always a way to develop your guitar skills and overcome your difficulties
Having troubles with the solo of your favourite song? The riff-repeater option is your saviour. It will isolate the song part of your choice, and let you repeat it over and over … until you eventually ace it!
Want to improve your finger dexterity? Learn chords? Improve scales? For all of these and more, there’s a specific mini-game that will help you get it in Guitarcade. Rocksmith will turn your guitar into a controller, for instance, while shooting ducks in the Ducks mini-game you’ll actually be learning how to shift from fret to fret without even realising!
Turn your TV or computer into an amplifier
No need for an amplifier anymore, with Rocksmith your TV or your computer IS your amplifier and will let you try and play with loads of in-game pedals, amplifiers and cabinets. String pedals together with nearly infinite combinations and tweak your sound until you’re satisfied. Whether it’s a crunchy distortion, a vintage tremolo or a psychedelic reverb, we have it covered to make sure you can achieve the sound you’re looking for.
Play in multiplayer
Plug in a second guitar to go head-to-head with friends to see who can earn the highest score, or have fun playing cooperatively as lead and rhythm guitars. Also, all songs can be played in multiplayer with one person playing the bass part and the other the guitar part.
Brand new Bass mode
The game will include the brand new Bass mode, offering players the opportunity to play bass guitar on all supported on-disc and downloadable songs.

Rocksmith
After playing this game at my brothers I decided to get it myself, it certainly advances your guitar playing rapidly. You know when you're getting good when you have a double encore! Top buy for me, was on offer too so wasn't too expensive

Rocksmithhero
I bought Rocksmith because I new what I going get. In fact it is the best guitar game on current-gen, nothing like guitar hero, its a guitar game, this is necessary. Everyone who wants to hear a new sound must buy this. Songs in game are pretty lame though.

A good game to learn how to play songs
The first game you can play with a real guitar ! This game is quite entertaining for beginners but i won't advise it to first timers. You need to have some basic knowledge because not everything is explained about your guitar, how to hold it etc... You can find everything in youtube but it's strongly advised to have someone explain the basic stuff to you. The game allows you to play better and you learn playing by a fun way : listening and playing to your favorite songs. You'll learn some tips and technics and will get used to play the guitar. You've got a score that is binded to your account, and he'll represents your progresses and will make the game harder and harder when you become better to match your skill level. There are 40 songs with the game (nice songs), and you can buy some in the store, but it's quite expensive.

Learn to play the guitar, while playing a video game
If you bought a guitar recently that's just collecting dust because you don't know how to play it, then this video game is for you. Rocksmith is a lot like Guitar Hero or Rock Band games, except you learn how to play the guitar in the process. That being said I don't think Rocksmith will be interesting for experienced guitar players but for beginners it's a blast! So if you've always wanted to learn to play the guitar, but never wanted to pay for expensive guitar lessons, then this game is a cheaper alternative.

Great fun for all, if you set it up right.
I bought Rocksmith with little prior knowledge of the game. All I knew was that I could plug my little-used electric guitar in to my ps3 and play a music game. At first I was a little disappointed. Pay attention to the recommended setup picture in the intro screens. If all you have is HDMI-out to your tv for picture and sounds, you will find the lag between guitar and output of sound intolerable. But if you rig your ps3 up to a Hifi or other, with the component cable that came with your ps3, but with the picture still through HDMI to your tv (multi-out option in ps3 video set up) and it works beautifully! It's great fun to just use as an amp with loads of effects and loads of options to create your own, if you wish. The game play itself is good too. Rocksmith quickly figures out your level and adjusts the "mastery" (complexity) to suit you. Many complex riffs and sections will be reduced to 1 or two key notes, so you won't feel totally lost. Progression through your "journey" is fun and rewarding, but how much tool enjoy this depends on your song taste. There are a few that I dread to see on the "set list" but this is inevitable, really. You can always play your favourites at any time, or practice your favourite section of a song with options for speed and mastery, though. Then there are the mini-games, which are a fun distraction that will certainly benefit players' coordination and knowledge of scales and chords. Overall it's a great concept executed very well which any guitarist or wannabe guitarist will enjoy as long as the hardware is set up correctly. The song list could be better though.

Rocksmith - PS3
Rocksmith is a fantastic guitar teaching tool. I am a complete novice and after one week I am making fantastic progress. Best PS3 purchase ever!

Excellent!!
Brilliant game. I had never even picked up a guitar before but after just one week I can play 2 songs! Can't recommend enough, perfect even for complete beginners.

Better than expected
The main reason I thought this may not be so good was time lag. That is the time between hitting the guitar strings and actually hearing the sound coming from your speakers on TV/amp. There is a slight lag but I can work with it. All depends on your set up. There are some great tunes on the disc and the difficulty changes depending on how you are playing. As a guitar learning tool I'd say it's up there with the best of them. Now I can play a video game and feel I'm also doing something constructive!
