Rocksmith - Canadian TV Spot (Oct. 2011)

[guitargodz1001]

what song is this?

[sweetgyy]

i bet the parents will be pretty pissed off when they get back home!

[xfrl]

I only watched because of the hot girls.

[williamkendrick]

more like cocksmith

[WAP2319]

@williamkendrick HOHHOHOHO OMG UR FUNI

[WAP2319]

@williamkendrick Hey, that's not nice.

[iamCoorpse]

Anyone can play, even women.

[toymasheenSH]

Wow there's this gay fucking program called Rosetta Stone and it teaches other people LANGUAGES I mean what the fuck I went to university to be a linguist and now it's totally cheapening the hard work I put in over the years!

[puddingpimp]

@toymasheenSH , I've completed several Rosetta Stone language courses through to Level 3, and while beneficial, it's nowhere near language competency training, and putting in the hard work to master a language. I see Rocksmith as much the same, I am a music teacher and semi-pro guitarist and am really looking forward to getting my hands on Rocksmith, but it's a complement not an alternative to instrumental tuition. More likely I think it will inspire more people to take lessons.

[toymasheenSH]

@puddingpimp I'm glad you agree with me. Seems like all the kids that play Avenged Sevenfold have a real issue with this game

[xblackb0x]

stupid shitty game.. just learn to play a real guitar

[TheLestijn]

@xblackb0x This makes it easier...

[xblackb0x]

@TheLestijn so what, it is ruining the art of playing guitar, all these little kids will be like woah i can play guitar while they actually cant to shit

[GTadamisthe1]

COME OUT IN EUROPE ALREADY!

[GodlessManitoban]

What a cocksmith.

[ImSoOffended]

breaking the fourth wall has never been so epic

[brobro565656]

" Anyone can play ? "

There is NOTHING in this world that each and everyone of us CAN ALL do. This includes sex (amongst many others ) and "learning " how to play guitar through Rocksmith.

Therefore, the marketing line " Anyone can play " is in itself false advertisement.

[puddingpimp]

@brobro565656 I would assume the definition of "Anyone" in this case would be people with two hands and an electric/jackable guitar.

[Phuild]

"Anyone can dance around alone in their living room playing a game that they should most likely be drunk and with friends to play. ROCKSMITH!"

[hhellohhello]

if ur playing a real guitar why still play a game??

[tgdwarf]

@hhellohhello cause playing teh guitar is awesome... playing a game is awesome most of the time because there is a score... so playing the guitar with a score = more awesome

most inventions in life really is about increasing the amount of awesome

[Emiliethebest]

K so this is just a rip off pretty much from the rock band 3 pro guitar.

[uberretroglam]

Yank soldiers ruined the ad.

[PoorDummIdiots]

people complain about adds on youtube all the time and here you guys making a add a trend video fricking hippocrits. lol.

[TheBlindSound]

WANT WANT WANT WANT

[RetardedxVideo]

wait so this is out now???

If so im buying this instead on an ipod touch.....

And a question i really need to know befor i do is: Does this game support Bass guitar? Cuz i dont have a guitar, only a bass, which iv been practicing for the past month just for this game and because its awesom. So can someone please reply to me if this game has Bass guitar. Thnx.

[jocomat9]

@RetardedxVideo only guitar bud and its good

[RetardedxVideo]

@jocomat9 really?! thats soo gay!! why do people not care about us bass players! This means i have to buy another guitar.....$200 down the drain.

[Turatle]

@RetardedxVideo

i have a guitar and a bass

started with guitar... i like bass better its more fun

i say its actually worth it 2 get both guitar and bass... both are quite fun 2 play... and u might like 1 better then the other

[snow4life987]

why so many dislikes?

[wiinterthebutcher]

dont know why anybody thinks this is a bad thing O_O as if we're all getting fucking record contracts anyway?

this shit gives prospective guitar players a place to START remember then you first looked up guitar tabs for your favorite songs or tried to learn chord formations?

Yea, everybody needs to start somewhere... this just makes it FUN rather than overwhelming.... you still need actual talent and experience to WRITE music.

stop crying hippies.

[1AmDaFunnyMan]

guitar is something that people are supposed to learn perseverance and passion not something that can be sold on a video game...

[A7XBFMVRA]

as long as people don't brag about being good at this, or that they can play guitar, after playing this, I'll be okay. If ANYONE thinks they are fucking cool after playing this, I will rip them a new one. this might be the fucking death of real guitar players. If you play this, dont rub it in my face and I'll turn a blind eye.

[toymasheenSH]

@A7XBFMVRA can I rub my balls in your face instead

[EFSpartan]

LOL Why on a Canadian TV spot we have American Soldiers, WHY?! CANADA has A MILITARY TOO!

[11eggs]

Dramatization. Do not attempt.

[TheSniperRises]

@11eggs To late.

[demonwx10]

Correction: Anyone can play guitar, but not everybody becomes good at it.

[adrianondiano]

LOL they make it seem like "anyone" can play guitar and these people who think that learning guitar is as easy as they make it look will get this game, try it out and get frustrated and go back to playing cod. learning guitar takes ALOT of patience, and hard work.

[racewalker9999]

Anyone can learn guitar? Challenge Accepted.

[Nicholosity]

The first guy looks the main bad guy from inglourious basterds.

[itworks225]

@TheWhitePartyHat i agree...musicians work hard to make our music and now they just ruin it my making stupid ass people think its easy to play the guitar.

[wolvx1x]

OHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHH!!! ---Kool aid guy ! i can alwredy play and rip it... but its stupid how they say its easy...no its not it takes years and years of practice... i still cant wait to try it . hopefully its real chords/notes

[redXfire14]

I hate this ..... i worked hard for my skill and its sad to see how there just belittling the beautiful art that is guitar.

[LiamsayWHAT]

@redXfire14 Belittling? It's a tutorial with in game achievements that teaches people how to play the guitar. If ANYTHING it's a technological breakthrough

[1slug2]

they should have put the cool-aid guy in there...now he knows how to break walls down haha

[Rombocky]

lol bottom right dramatization do not attempt

[HardBreakProduction]

what is the name of this song..?

[toymasheenSH]

@HardBreakProduction Stone Temple Pilots "Between The Lines"

[SingularRalugins]

I hated the part where that chick brushes her hair back while watching her BF kicks a lick and a wall at the same time...

[JuiceInABox1]

Rocksmith Game: $79,99

Wall repairs: $75,000

Learning Guitar: In this case, it it not priceless

[williamkendrick]

@JuiceInABox1 submitted to your grammar sucks.

[Snubway]

Roadhouse.

[alastairmctavish]

Lazy fucks learn to play like us normal people, pick it up and learn scales and chords and look up tabs for songs you enjoy

[MissingINo]

@alastairmctavish Your comment managed to make absolutely no fucking sense.

[secondrule]

@alastairmctavish

What are you talking about? It's fun, fun, fun. It can't hurt to play it. It's great that it's getting more people interested in guitars. Scales, chords, and "tabs" might come later for these new players.

Rock on "rocksmith rockers" :-)

[misterMEEZY]

Lol @ bottom of the screen.. "Dramatization. Do not attempt."

[AwsmeMS]

my foot got stuck in my wall ): MUDAH BISHES!!

[killroy870]

DAM THEM PEOPLE SURE HAVE A SPARTAN KICK!!

[Solja2010]

so breaking walls suppose to be badass?

[kh2blondelli]

ill just stick wuth my real guitar.

[dib327]

ill just stick with my guitar hero

[tama14crazy]

Anyone can play Guitar but Not everyone can make it sound good.

[Netlocd]

@tama14crazy This.

[brittjd1992]

I WANT THIS.

[miko589]

I'd honestly rather just use online guitar tabs, and plug my guitar into an actual amp and crank it up, sounds better.

[ListedProduction]

"Anyone can play guitar"? Go fuck yourself

[AspiringRocker729]

@ListedProduction Well, technically, anyone can; they just need to own a guitar, amp, and be willing to put in hours to practice. How well they can play it is a different story, but in the strictest sense, theoretically anyone could play as well as John Petrucci.

[ListedProduction]

@AspiringRocker729 Touché

[toymasheenSH]

@ListedProduction Not a fan of Radiohead?

[secondrule]

@ListedProduction

LOL, just keep practicing, and maybe you'll get better. Plus, anyone CAN play guitar if they spend the time to practice, and barring any medical condition. Heck, I even see an video on youtube of a guy playing with no arms, just with his feet, and he is great.

[DuskCrunch180]

is it compatible with a Bass? :3

[Pudsy440]

what does playing an instrument have to do with dancing in front of your tv like a douche?

[toymasheenSH]

@Pudsy440 Well practice for making it in today's "music industry" for one

[Pudsy440]

@toymasheenSH I know ... haha. :) Well played sir.

[mrdudeacough]

oh please. guitar games are so 2000 and late

[toymasheenSH]

@mrdudeacough I'm on that next shit now "Rocksmith"

[ThunderwolfX]

I don`t know where one would get the instinct to kick down a wall while playing guitar

[TheSantaKruz]

I love how commercials like these the hands of the people playing guitar stays on the same note the entire time, even though there are like 10 different notes playing.

[akomni]

dumb commercial. good game.

[MissingINo]

It's not a rythm game. The reason alot of people here haven't even heard of it yet is that it was marketed towards musicians instead of gamers. It was created as a learning tool instead of a game. Although this commercial doesn't tell you shit all.

[theitube101]

@TheWhitePartyHat Yep...

[SilentxStryker]

LOL really ubisoft? These type of games died about 2 years ago..

[toymasheenSH]

@SilentxStryker music education will never die.

[SilentxStryker]

@toymasheenSH lol sitting infront of your tv with a plastic guitar is not music education. You want to educate yourself with music? Go but a real guitar and take some real lessons.

[toymasheenSH]

@SilentxStryker I'm sorry but do you see any plastic guitars in this commercial?

[detBits]

@SilentxStryker Lol do you know anything about this game? Study up before u talk shit. its real guitars only...

[TommyBShow]

well its gonna have to wait until I get sick of Skyrim in 2016.

[JimmyJSmits]

2008 called they said rythme games were dead back then

[Vincebandicot521]

The last time I heard about this was last year... They weren't kidding, it actually looks awesome

[skexee]

What if you have been playing guitar for 20 years. Can you play a piece and then rank yourself world wide.

[rivengle]

@skexee check freddiew. :D

[toymasheenSH]

@skexee No- only Guitarcade has online leader boards. However Scorehero might do score tracking if you want to see how you stack up.

[skexee]

@toymasheenSH thanks

[Jarr3tt882]

False advertising, ROCK BAND 3 HAS REAL GUITAR, therefore Rocksmith is NOT the first.

[toymasheenSH]

@Jarr3tt882 *Any real guitar

[Jarr3tt882]

@toymasheenSH Dam you and your technicality toymachine haha :p

[KickStandLFS]

@Jarr3tt882 Also rock band's guitar is a heavily modified version OF a guitar. While it works in an amp and in the game, it is far from what musicians would call a REAL guitar.

[Jarr3tt882]

@KickStandLFSThe Squire is a real guitar tho, sure it has electronics in it and stuff, but it is a real guitar none the less :) Either way, I think this game has a lot of promise. Good for RB3 to have some competition and maybe they will increase their pro guitar chart output. win/win all around. I might pick this game up myself, just gotta wait for a price drop.

[ChaosmanEXE1]

@Jarr3tt882 fan boy

[xblackhawk17x]

@ChaosmanEXE1 trollll



[ChaosmanEXE1]

@xblackhawk17x that to

[Jarr3tt882]

@ChaosmanEXE1 Troll.

[raphaeljesussr2]

great game...

great ubisoft...

beauty girls...

[DeimosStation]

They should have hired toymasheen for this ad, anyone agrees?

[toymasheenSH]

@DeimosStation I could use the money lawl

[Dogmatic2120]

A Canadian ad featuring US Soldiers. Cool.

[thnetwork]

Full setlist, now ? :D

[DaMeisterToo]

@thnetwork Tuesday.
