    Power Gig: Rise of the SixString

    I know we have a good number of guys here that like Rock Band. Not sure if those people have heard of a new game from Seven45 Studios called Power Gig.

    I don't really play Rock Band or Guitar Hero, but a friend of mine worked on the design of this game so I figure I might as well let the crowd know about it.

    Power Gig: Rise of the SixString, the first band videogame for which the guitar controller is a functioning six-string electric guitar. Power Gig: Rise of the SixString will be available for the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system and Xbox 360 videogame and entertainment system October 2010.

      Power Gig: Rise of the SixString will be the true evolution of the band videogame experience when it arrives this fall with a genuine six string guitar as wireless controller. The guitar features Seven45's proprietary technology that can distinguish and recognize gamers' input all along the guitar, making the guitars as easy to pick up and play as any other band game button controllers. The unique dual-functionality of the SixString allows for use in-game as well as with any standard guitar amplifier. In addition to traditional beat-matching that will be familiar to fans of the band game genre, Power Gig also introduces the option to switch on chording, which presents the added challenge of playing the game using chords that require specific finger placement on the neck. As players progress through the game, becoming more comfortable with a genuine guitar and challenging themselves to play real power chords, they will find the byproduct of playing the game is coming away from it with real-life guitar skills.

              I even searched. I fail.
