Has anyone had experience with Rocksmith 2014 Edition specifically for PC? Is it useful for people who already know many techniques and are there any major p...

I really wanna get this, maybe this month.

But I don't have a console and I DON'T want a PC version of the game. (I hate gaming on PCs)

So: Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3 or PS4?

The only other games I'd play would be Mortal Kombat X and possibly driving games.

And, if it helps, I'm a Linux/Android guy. Dunno if that would affect Xbox VS Playstation.

Thanks for the tips! I have no idea what's good out there.

Mmmmm, not sure this helps as I'm not a gamer, but I somehow ended up with Rocksmith on both my PC and the PS3. Always use the PS3 for some reason even though it's not necessarily the most convenient.

MS vs Sony - on your own ?

If you want to go last gen, get the 360. Otherwise I would say get a PS4. I must just say I have it on my laptop which I then connect to my tv, which is very nice to travel with as well.

Have they updated their amp sims at all?

I couldn't handle the terrible sounds the game producers... for a relatively big budget game, you would have thought they could get some decent developers in to produce a half decent sounding amp sim. I shelved the game because my ears started bleeding.

That reminds me, another reason I got it is because you can use the cable for guitar rig easily and quickly.

BTW guys on steam there is another tool (wouldn't call it a game) you could get and with the editor you can do your own songs.

I have used it to practice with scales, finger exercises it works with any audio interface. It doesn't have amp modeling and all that jazz.

Thanks for that. Will check it out.

Quick update: I picked up a second hand a Macbook Pro last week and it's great. Really loving it compared to my past machines.

It's pretty high-end (i7, 16Gb RAM, SSD) so I'm just gonna get Rocksmith for Mac and use it like that.

Thanks to the guy that suggested that. Don't remember who exactly ?

If anyone knows someone selling a Realtone cable and/or a used copy of Rocksmith 2014 for Mac, please let me know.

Vikster

This ~~must~~will go on my birthday list. Who stocks the game with cable in Pretoria?

NorioDS

@Vik, you can get the cable from Takealot.com for R316. Free delivery I think.

And the game for PC/Mac from SteamPowered.com.

Not sure about console but I think some of the music stores stock it.

Vikster

Thanks Norio. Did you get your copy? If so what did you think of it?

NorioDS

Sadly not yet brother. Need to budget for it. Hopefully will get my dirty little grubs on a copy in May.
