This is a partial list of songs to get you off and running once you fire up Rocksmith. The full list can be found here. I wasn't expecting a strong list to begin with. The makers of the game have to wait and see how successful Rocksmith turns out before they can start shelling out the big bucks for the bigger hit songs. I'm hopeful that this game is a hit so we can get a lot more of the better songs as soon as possible.

Well if all the people that like it on Face book they'll have atleast 163,000 copies sold. I can safely say most of the announced songs and bands I've never heard of but thats what these music games do really well, they introduce different music to a new audience. I may just pre order this at my local GS and get it with BF3 and then find a nice shiny coin to flip to see what one I play first. BWAHAHAHA! No it'll be BF 3. I may just use this on my 360 in my bedroom which I used to practice in anyway and I have a chair to plop down in.

It's pretty funny seeing Paul Riario reduced to that of an amateur player.

Went into pre order today and the girl behind the counter said "You know this requires a real guitar right?" I said "Oh yeah I know, I have one.". Its amazing what the though of a guitar player does to women. I really should learn to play this thing better. LOL

Whenever I see a real musician like that play a music "game" I just remember the guys from Rush being set up with Rock band and trying to play one of there own songs. I would love to see Alex do a Rush song on this. Is obvious that a simplified version confuses people that really know how to play the whole song. Sort of like throwing an expert rb or GH player into an easy or medium setting of that game. They know the rhythm and timing and having a quarter or 8th of the amount of the notes even though they are in time throws everything off.

I'd pay to see Steve Vai forced to play one of his own songs on Rocksmith (when his stuff is released that is), and watch him look horrible at it.  ;D

Added Guitar World Plays Rocksmith Episode 6

Dawn Of The Chordead looks to be the best of the Guitarcade games in that it can really speed up the process of learning basic, simple chord shapes to more advanced shapes while keeping your practicing entertaining. Man I wish I had something like this back when I first picked up a guitar. It would have made those long practice sessions more bearable for me.

Bah!!

Well I spent a little time with Rocksmith tonight and really like it. Of course this is coming from an extreme beginner. I read Joystiqs review and the guy hated just about everything about it except the tech that is the guitar chord. He of course was "an accomplished" guitar player but thats really not what this game is targeting. I did notice though there where a couple times it wasn't detecting the right fret I was on it was telling me to be on 5 and I was and the arrows where directing me to move my fingers as if I where on the 6th fret. Maybe I was planing to close to the 6th, but thats where you are always told to finger the fret, closest to the next fret and not in the middle. I'll have to do some experimenting to see. Right now though I gotta go be Batman.
