The music aspect of Rocksmith 2014 is praised for its diverse soundtrack, featuring a mix of well-known and lesser-known songs that cater to both beginners and advanced players. While some users find the downloadable content (DLC) expensive, the game's ability to teach guitar through playing along with licensed tracks and its customizable features enhance the learning experience. Overall, players appreciate the nostalgic joy of jamming to their favorite songs while developing their musical skills.
“Playing along to the licensed songs brought back the days of jamming to my favorite albums -- I’d forgotten how much fun that could be.”
“The fact you can play along to some of your favorite songs is great, but Rocksmith not only teaches how to play it but it also helps you re-tune the guitar to match the tuning of the song and it automatically uses the necessary effects to match how the band really plays it.”
“Rocksmith 2014 is the definitive guitar game which caters to pros and beginners alike; the soundtrack features something for everyone and the diverse training techniques are enough to keep music lovers busy for a long time to come.”
“The DLC is expensive as one song costs £2.49, but they have a few packs. They did in fact give away 8 Jimi Hendrix songs for free in December after they cost a massive £23!”
“Having said that, although it is very clever software and fun to play along, this method of learning does not seem to cement the songs into your head like more conventional learning methods do.”
“I'm not really into the rock music that accompanies this game, so I will have to purchase more from the Ubisoft website; however, I think that is part of their strategy.”

Not just for newbies, Rocksmith 2014 presents enough diverse play styles that guitar players of nearly all skill levels will find something to learn. Playing along to the licensed songs brought back the days of jamming to my favorite albums -- I’d forgotten how much fun that could be. It’s also the first time in a long time that I had the feeling of reaching a challenge that seemed insurmountable at first, only to conquer it and move on to the next. The technical issues are merely hiccups -- putting a real guitar in your hands with songs that you already know and love, Rocksmith 2014 might really be the best way to learn how to play guitar today.
