This actually looks good. I really like the highway interface of BandFuse more than I do of Rocksmith because it's a throwback to my days of learning with the tab. Rocksmith's 3D highway is kinda weird. I still intend to get Rocksmith, but I've been too busy to play games lately. But if BandFuse comes out before I get around to picking up Rocksmith, I would probably grab this one first. Curious to see what songs will ship with the game.

can you imagine the shredders this is going to produce...I mean seriously.

writing music and having great chops really is two totally different skill sets...but still man there's going to be some sick ass guitar players of ALL ages when this stuff really takes off.

the whole thing might implode because playing well won't be a big deal anymore......pretty interesting terrain this stuff is treading....if you really think about it.

lots of people who can technically play guitar amazingly....but will this create more bands, more guitar legends.....or will it take guitar to more of a video game perception of a useless skill.

Actually, I think this game will make better, all around players with chord progressions and maybe theory (if it goes that deep) than just turning out shredders. Usually games like this, Rockband, Rocksmith are going to require you to learn the basic stuff before they will let you advance further into the game. So, the idea of jumping to "learning the fastest, meanest guitar lick" won't really apply here. Now, I'm basing this off of past games and what they have done and I don't know anything about what will come in this game as far as beginning, intermediate and advance playing. But I am very interested in this particular game.

I wish I had this type of learning tool back when I first started playing guitar because then I would have been a more well-rounded player back then instead of my stupid mentality of trying to outplay Mr. Vai.

I still feel that way with stuff...I go from zero to sixty...I play guitar 2 or 3 nights and I am already imagining headlining the 02 Arena in London and how I might have to clear my schedule because me and Jimmy Page will be working together a few weeks later.

;)

hahahahahaha

no wonder I am always stressed out.

I realized this morning I do that....the second I get into something I am always looking to the top...and then even topping myself when I get to the top...it's very strange...but something I'd like to cool down a little.

I don't want to lose my "edge" so to speak...but I also don't want to be ridiculous about things

:)

We will have to do a Battle Of The Bands / Guitar Duel.

You shred.

I play bar chords.

Winner takes all.

 that game looks amazing....it's such an interesting step in music...I am not even sure what it will bring

will be really wild to see what this all evolves into...and will there be tons of amazing players with chops for days....8 year olds playing Yngwie....Paul Gilberts that are 6.

who knows.

Out of all the games that have been released lately that are more tools than actual game (Rockband, Rocksmith and BandFuse), this one looks to be the real thing because they are using the standard Tab highway that we both grew up devouring in the pages of Guitar For The Practicing Musician. So there won't that awkward phase of trying to relearn a new highway system that RB and RS were intent on recreating.

Oh, and I'm definitely Buying this one on release day. You might not see or hear from me for a couple of months after the fact.

good to know...I saw the scroll tab and it looked like something I could get immediately.

looks promising...I am sure like any first gen game it will have some things to improve on..but it looks pretty damn cool.

telling you, there's going to be a LOT of great players from this....I always wondered what it would have been like for my friends who couldn't play guitar but could absolutely tear it up on Guitar Hero...so I guess in a short while I will know.

I checked out the link.....how many songs do you think this will come with.

That short list was pretty weak...I mean if that's 5% of the songs....than maybe it's a good start.....but I'd hope for 80-100 tracks.

This is how these types of games are advertised. They leak the song list a little at a time to keep interest in the game up to the release date. Rockband and Guitar Hero kind of set the standard here. Trust me, there will be a lot more songs shipped with the game. I'd be shocked if it didn't ship with at least 60-70 songs on disc. After that they will offer DLC. How many per week or month is still unknown at this time.
