Power Gig: Rise of the SixString

Power Gig: Rise of the SixString is a game focused on rhythm guitar. While the game is similar to guitar-based games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band, Power Gig comes with a unique guitar controller that acts as both a standalone six-string guitar and a game controller for note matching. Because the controller and gameplay are very similar to a real guitar, the game has attracted musicians like Eric Clapton, Dave Matthews and Kid Rock, who previously shied away from music games because of the simplicity of the button-mashing concept. The game is also distributed with the AirStrike, a drum controller that works with motion sensors.
