Learning to play any instrument though is hard work - and Rocksmith hardly makes it any easier.
But can Rocksmith - due in Europe this October - really teach you how to play?
Skull and Bones surprises with second-highest player engagement in Ubisoft's history, marking an unexpected success story.
Funny how all the clickhate was trying to spin that it was "struggling" to reach these very numbers.
Over 700 Ubisoft staff in France strike due to failed salary talks, highlighting a major dispute over fair compensation.
Ubisoft is eroding from within. They used to be such a great publisher, but their hubris, greed, ignorance, and willingness to embrace crappy business practices such as intentionally releasing broken games with a "patch it later" mentality just so they can garner Black Friday sales, their in-game cash shops to sell you virtual junk, over priced collectors editions where their price increases but their quality remains the same, giant open bland land masses to explore packed with copy & paste boring filler side quests designed to waste your time with menial tasks.
And let's not forget their employees constantly getting pissed at the executives treating them like crap, which has been an on-going problem for years. Yeah, Ubisoft had rightfully earned their title of Ubi-junk.
What a shame.
Couldn't happened to a more deserving company. Here's to a AAAA Strike for all those well deserved AAAA Salaries.
🖕 Choke on it U-beSawft.
The industry is hitting some issues I'm seeing games not selling as well, Sony projections are down, games cost way too much to make and are not hitting return on investment, and now employees demanding to be paid more.
It reminds me of the movie industry. The cost to make movies aren't making their money back yet you have everyone demanding to be paid more. The things that needs to change are cost of development including employee/contractor wages, and I'd even say to lower the MSRP on games. I know they are trying like hell to monetize games to bring in recurring revenue like mobile games, but that's not the answer. The onus is on the industry to correct this and I think the way to do it is cutting back on costs.
I don't see how employees can demand to be paid more when sh*t like Skull and Bones isn't bringing back money and god knows how much they spent on the development of that game. I think I remember seeing that after Black Flag or when Sea of Thieves was announced.
Ubisoft just announced its financial results for Q3 of the fiscal year 2023-2024 and confirmed a release window for Assassin’s Creed Codename Red, on top of a lot more information about the performance of its major games.
sounds good. i always wanted to learn guitar.
I have it, and I can play the whole song without it now,and I've never touched a guitar ever. And the way it teaches u how to play I can tune it by sound, and play another song by hitting single notes/ listening.
I can also vouch for this "Game". Obviously it won't/can't teach you theory like real lessons or classes can but having never strummed the strings on a guitar before in my life, I also can now play upwards to 10 songs now without the game. I have a much better feel for the guitar and it crosses barriers that are a thousand times more difficult to without Rocksmith. I really recommend this game to ANYONE who has ever thought about playing guitar.. And it's a fun game!
Just have to make sure you buy an optical cable and send the audio signal separately to avoid audio lag. Then it's perfect
I imported from Amazon for £50, its really good. I have been messing around with a guitar i got cheap off a mate for a few months now (looking at tabs and that Marty Shwartz dude on youtube), but Rocksmith is helping me actually become a solid guitarist. I found the most difficult part to be having to look at the screen, reading the tab thing and then playing it on the fretboard without looking at it, i often (and still do) find myslef hitting, say, the 8th fret instead of the 7th, which does cause annoyance. But i only got it a few days ago. Anyway, if you have some knowledge of guitar, like how to hold pick, strumming etc., this game is ideal. Especially if you can't afford those pricey lessons!
already can play guitar , but this seems like a fun way to practice in my own time when away from the band . when does this release in europe for ps3?
