Brilliant FunAugust 1, 2007 piccolo(UK) 12 out of 13 found this review helpful
I cannot describe how much I love this game- it's like playing a real guitar added with the fact it trains on on the different strings. The main screen is the same as the stings on the guitar and the shoulder buttons are the cords- you can strum the 'screen' like a real guitar and change the tone/tune by using the cords (shoulder buttons and d-pad) it also sounds like a real guitar if you plug in a small speaker into the headphone jack - you might even want to try busking in the underground ! The Demo i played came pre-loaded with a bunch of tracks (real songs) so i had a crack at playing along to Bob Marely (No Woman No Cry)- it takes you step by step on how to play then it your turn which is great fun especially when you got a partner singing with you. I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys there music and even for anyone who wants to learn to play a guitar by doesn't want to pay for expensive lessons.
Great For Guitarist, For nubz?September 29, 2007 egg 4 out of 10 found this review helpful
I play real guitar myself, and have been for about 6 months. i get lesons and have just started making my own solos. Unfortunatly, my brother plays bass so i have noone to play cords for me as i play my solos, so i thought i'll use this as my second guitarist.
Enough about me, the game is an amazing game. It has over 200 real chords, though u nomaly only use major's and minor's. If you play guitar, and have a good nolage of chords for songs, this game is ur portably guitar that fits in your pocket. it also has a bit where you try and work out the chords, so u can try and work out chords of songs.
if you dont play guitar, this is still a great game. My friend got it and loves locking on the internet for chords of his song and then playing them.
More about me, i have a band, and last night, for fun, i played the rthem for american idiot, as the rest of them play it for real. It sounded fine, and with a bit of destorion, which u can do in the game, sounds amazing. One time on stage, ill probably play along on the ds, just for fun.
All in all, this is an amazing game, but has no objective. good or bad, its a guitarist must-have, and a non-guitarist toy.
60seconds is a Jam Session???October 8, 2007 Mr. M. G. Watts(UK) 4 out of 14 found this review helpful
Just got this game on the understanding that you can record yourself playing and recording your own material.....seem that your compositions can only last 60 seconds and the volume is poor against other guitars, Item will be in ebay VERY soon.
Define 'Jam'..January 8, 2008 Sian Raven 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I bought the game with the belief that you would be playing guitar along to recognisable music tracks as well as being able to create your own. I was disappointed to find that the majority of song tracks were in Spanish, and of those that weren't, only a couple were recognisible. Also I presumed there'd be a backing track to play along with, instead you're expected to play it solo, and this makes some of the tracks confusing as you're not always sure where you're meant to be in the tune.
When you play the tunes you're not graded on how well you've done, in fact you could make a complete mess of it and still get the 'congratulations' screen at the end.
There are many ways this could have been done better, and was a bit of a let down. I'll be trading it in soon.
