Neil writes: "Blues, jazz, country, rock, punk - the Rocksmith DLC library has had it all. Today though it's all about one genre and some very lengthy tunes as the Swedish Progressive Death Metallers, Opeth arrive."
Neil writes: "Fed up with the world and wish you could head back a few decades to the 1970s? Well you can with the latest Song Pack for Rocksmith as once more the powers that be take us back in time for the Rocksmith 70s Mix Song Pack VI."
Neil writes: "There is absolutely no debating the brilliance of Nikki Sixx. But while the most famous moments of Sixx' musical career have revolved around Mötley Crüe's tunes, it is the smaller side project that is today appearing on Rocksmith. Yep, that's right, Sixx:A.M. are here and providing a brand new song pack to the fastest guitar tutor in the West."
Sounds cool. Does anyone know if the input lag is an issue at all?
I've played guitar for around 20 years and played previous versions of Rocksmith simply as a way of learning new songs (much more fun than simply reading from a score or guitar tab!) but there was a small, but noticeable, delay from fretting a note and actually hearing it being played via the console.
At times it meant that by the time you'd heard the previous note you'd miss the next due to the input lag.
(especially when basic finger-tapping was introduced !)
Having said that, to anyone looking to learn the mechanics of playing guitar I truly feel Rocksmith is a great tool and eases new players over the first difficult hurdle ..... fretting basic notes/chords and actually playing along WITH a song.
