this game gives people the idea that they can really play guitar, which is great, because jam sessions really DOES make it easier to play music (on a virtual instrument). unless you have a knowledge for notes, chords, and progressions on a real guitar, then you probably wouldnt have much fun playing this game.

this means that its good news for people who really know how to play guitar inside and out, and have a thorough knowledge of theory and ear training to go along with it. the recording feature is nice, and can come in handy often. the customizeable effects that are included in the engine are good as well. however, through all of the distortion, reverb, and flange you can still hear the subtle sound of an acoustic guitar playing a full chord. this isnt really realistic, considering that a person wouldnt play acoustic chords on an electric guitar with distortion.

the controls are awesome... it gives you the feel that youre actually playing a guitar by strumming the simulated string on the touch screen with the stylus, and holding down the buttons on the d-pad, to simulate holding down the right strings on the proper frets to play a certain chord.

next time, they need to work on the visuals and how they present the game... the interface was very bland, making the game look incredibly cheap.
