Rocksmith Unboxing (PlayStation 3)

2011-12-16
what's up guys it's Lou from unbox therapy and today we're taking a look at Rocksmith the authentic guitar game for your PlayStation 3 it's also available for your Xbox 360 or PC retails for around 79 bucks and the claim to fame here is the ability to plug a proper electric guitar with a quarter inch plug into your console or PC now the reason you might want to do that is to become a better player this is not your parents guitar lessons isn't the kind of thing they try to enroll you in to learn I mean it's supposed to be more interactive a little more fun a little bit more competitive so maybe just maybe you become a rock star just kidding but anyways the first thing you're going to notice are some decals some little stickers that go along the neck of your guitar now I assume that these stickers are going to make following instructions via the game a little bit easier now in the game case along back you're going to notice there are a couple of different gameplay styles as well as a number of different effects that you can choose there's over 50 current and classic songs you can see here everything from Radiohead to Nirvana to something newer like the Black Keys etc I'm sure you're going to find something you want to play on there now it also features a split-screen multiplayer mode so you can get it on with your pals so as you notice here one to two players only takes up a little bit of hard disk space and it's only 720p a little bit of a drawback not major that should be fine so let's go ahead take a look inside the game case and see if there's anything unexpected or if it's bog-standard while the game disk is pretty standard just straight black matte black finish and then we've got our manual and a little bit more paperwork on the left-hand side now this is not exactly a full-featured manual just a couple of pages here in French and English but I'm assuming this game is going to have a pretty nice tutorial attached with it it's going to have to because it's it's unorthodox unusual for a video game they're going to have to tell you how to get everything connected how to get it up and running and how to how to play I'm hoping at least because I don't know at this moment so here's this poster like page that says before you get started gives you a couple of different interfacing options the best you can see on the far left they want separate audio going out to your home theater system so you can get better audio of course this game is going to be audio heavy and then your HDMI cable into your TV the better situation not the best but the better situation is component cables and of course the worst is just going into your TV with no audio system there they're not happy about television audio they want better quality so even though some TVs these days have decent speakers so here is where the magic happens this is the cable that converts your quarter inch guitar connector into a USB that your console can understand there's a little module in in the line there it's a pretty long cable I'd say about ten feet so you could be a little distance from the console and still rock on if you know what I'm saying so anyway guys if you enjoyed this content then hopefully you can like and favorite this video if you want to see me plug this thing in and play it and figure it all out let me know down in the comments as well and if you haven't checked out the new website yet please go ahead and do that it's unbox therapy com I'm doing a lot of work over there I'm going to be adding some some cool features and aren't even there yet so if you haven't checked it out yet please come and do so I'll put a link right down in the description anyway guys as always want to thank you for watching and I'll see you on the next one alright later
