Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - better finds else where
The product has an hand fun of problems. I received this product and found a broken foot pedal, like i wouldn't notice. the guitar is glitched. The only item that worked just fine was the mic, but it isn't really good to begin with. If you decide to purchase this game i say go some place like walmart or a gamestop/crazy and get the warranty. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS GUY/GAL!!!!!!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Way fun!
I bought this for my 17-year-old son for his birthday. It took him and his friends about 20 minutes to get it connected, and it works perfectly. He has had a blast playing it with his friends, and our family has requested that we bring it to the beach for vacation. Our one criticism is the cables. We sure wish that the instruments were wireless...but it didn't ruin the fun. Again, Amazon had the best price around.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Great, Except...
This would be a great game, but we found so many flaws in just the first few hours playing it, they overwhelmed any fun we had. First, the instructions are so poorly written they are useless, and we spent the first few hours just trying to figure out how to navigate the menus. As others note, the guitar controller is horrendous, so I won't belabor that point. The microphone sent with the game did not function at all and we will have to replace it. After reading several of the posted online comments at the game's website, malfunctioning (or nonfunctioning) controllers are not an uncommon problem, sad to say. We don't own Guitar Hero, so I can't make any comparisons.

On the positive side, when the game functions, it is a blast! The easy settings are very easy, making it fun to learn the instruments. The tutorials are good, the only exception being that when you want to repeat them, you have to listen to the aren't-I-cooler-than-you intro over again. That gets annoying if you're having to repeat a section several times (eh hem, some of us had trouble learning the drums.) Spouse and I did have fun playing together, and liked that we could have different difficulty settings. Would I buy it again? I'm on the fence. I wish the manufacturer would read the postings at its own website and fix some of the more major issues it has. You might check out that website and decide for yourself based on user complaints.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Fun, but many many problems.
While being a lot of fun this game causes much frustration setting up. Half the time we can't get the microphone to register properly with a controller. The guitar is unbelievably poor compared to guitar hero. Unlike the guitar hero version, it has an on/off switch that if on the back of the guitar. If you forget to turn this off your batteries will be dead overnight. When the guitar goes dead I can't even start a game with the vocals and drummer because I can't seem to find a way to get the guitar out of the band. This game is also a lot less forgiving than guitar hero on timing. I tend to hit notes early a lot more often and miss them from being too early. Overall guitar hero is 100x better than this due to all the shortcomings.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Game!
Love it! Great game! Either by yourself, or with a group of friends, you can spend countless hours enjoying this game. The fun never ends. Also, check out the downloadable songs, pick your favorites, and it's that much better!
