    LAG MAKES THE GAME UNPLAYABLE.
    I did try (as recommended by manufacturer) HDMI for video only and a digital optical cable for the audio (through my Bose sound system). There is still too much lag to play. I visibly have to hit the string earlier so the system will recognize at the right time. If playing freely, I'll be playing the 3rd note when the system is recognizing (and playing) the    LAG MAKES THE GAME UNPLAYABLE.

I visibly have to hit the string earlier so the system will recognize at the right time. If playing freely, I'll be playing the 3rd note when the system is recognizing (and playing) the 1st -- so you just can't play it. (I am not a fast player.)

The problem is that the game has sound and lag issues for some people and Ubisoft support is the worst customer support that I've ever dealt with. The game used to work fine, then one day I started having audio issues that make the game completely unplayable. I experience very loud crackling noises that overwhelm anything that I try to play. Ubisoft just treats me like an idiot and expects me to spend more money on a solution that doesn't work. The lag and audio issues just seem to come and go for people with zero help from Ubisoft. They refuse to acknowledge the issue and therefore have no accountability to fix it. Could have been a great product but Ubisoft refuses to support it beyond continued dlc that tries to take your money. Save your money or you'll just end up with a broken and frustrating experience.… Expand

    From the little tweaks like the menu being cleaner and more responsive, to the adding of modes that are useful and not superfluous, Rocksmith 2014 is as excellent a prospect that it could ever have been. So if you are interested in picking up a guitar for the first time and can’t afford tutoring, it is really hard to not recommend a purchase here.

    Rocksmith 2014 Edition is the perfect way for both non-gamers and gamers to master the guitar on the PlayStation 4.

    A fun way to learn the guitar which compliments existing methods with a comprehensive set of tutorials and a superb feedback system that challenges you to improve.
