Coming from someone who isn't a music game fan because i CAN play an instrument.... I'm also extremely interested..]]>Mar 9th 2010 9:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/Mar 9th 2010 10:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/Thats what I'm thinking.]]>Mar 9th 2010 1:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/
I think this'll cost more than a decent guitar starter pack, and you won't learn as much about music and guitar with this game as you would if you got a decent guitar book or a teacher. ]]>Mar 9th 2010 8:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/
No wayz. You mean, you know that this won't rival self learning through books? I trust you know what you are talking about, since you've used this product already.....right? And you know what you are talking about? You aren't just one of those people who posts things against instrument video-games using the same old "buy a real guitar and a book" argument right?]]>Mar 9th 2010 12:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/
There's no way this game will cover music theory, scales etc. From the article, it says it will teach you how to play SONGS on guitar - not play the guitar. There is a difference, and a big one. That's the point I'm making.

While this game will allow people to play songs, you hand someone a guitar who's played this game as a means of learning the instrument and say "improvise a solo using the E Phrygian scale", and await the blank look on their face.]]>Mar 9th 2010 1:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/Mar 9th 2010 8:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/Mar 9th 2010 8:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/
I always wanted to play guitar and this might be a fun way to learn it.I wonder if recognizes slides,bends and other advanced techniques.Probably not but one can dream...]]>Mar 9th 2010 8:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/Mar 9th 2010 8:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/Yes I have the same question, didnt see you post it first.]]>Mar 9th 2010 9:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/

Shame that Guitar Rising failed on marketing their product (their idea has almosy 2 years), now they have other players in the market.]]>Mar 9th 2010 9:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/
As far as music/controller games go... hasn't that ship sailed? I believe it's captain was DJ Hero and the first mate was Tony Hawk. Their expedition started last Xmas. They might have hit an iceberg and sank by now though. Oddly enough, no one cares.

Peripherals = Always a fad. 30 years of gaming history has proven so!]]>Mar 9th 2010 10:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/
Really? Rock Band/Guitar Hero would like to have a convo with you...]]>Mar 9th 2010 10:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/Mar 9th 2010 10:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/
Think this is a great idea. Look at the comments: a guitar player loves it, a button masher video game player loves it. Best of both worlds.

Can't wait to hear the report from Engadget on how well this thing works.]]>Mar 9th 2010 11:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/Mar 9th 2010 12:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/Mar 9th 2010 12:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/Mar 10th 2010 5:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/Mar 9th 2010 1:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/
Les Paul is no longer with us... Just making sure you knew.]]>Mar 9th 2010 2:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/09/seven45-studios-ups-the-ante-for-music-games-intros-guitar/

Those guys have made a game/teaching tool that is promised to work with real guitars and real tabs! Looking superb.
