"As the forum thread notes, we did develop and perform most testing on Windows 7 but there is nothing about the software that is unsupported with Windows 8. "Rocksmith 2014 supports the majority of Windows 8 PCs although as is the nature for PCs we may not support every possible configuration of people’s systems," said the company. I was curious about whether Microsoft's latest OS was supported though, and a quick search in Ubisoft's forum appeared to suggest that Win8 users are a bit of an unknown. Call me stuck in my ways if you like, but this review was undertaken using a Windows 7 computer. The installation process took about an hour from start to finish, including setting up the Steam account and loading in the Steam engine, the Rocksmith 2014 software and the Uplay portal. The disc installation is not a required aspect of the installation as the included game key in the packaging allows the user to activate the product and perform the entire installation and download through Steam directly."

The optical media is provided because users can install from the disc to possibly save some time if their internet download speeds are not as fast however, there is always some amount of data that is downloaded during the installation as updates and patches since the disc was pressed, are applied to make sure Rocksmith 2014 is up to date.

"Following installation it’s possible to set Steam to offline mode so that future playing can be done offline but the installation will require an online connection. "The installation of Rocksmith 2014 will require an one-time internet connection initially," Ubisoft told Gizmag.

There is a small print notice on the bottom of the package box and on the DVD case, but it might have been helpful to include the need to go online and the Steamworks info in the system requirements section. Before the installation proper began, the Steam platform needed to be installed and updated, and then a user account created. For instance, though the Rocksmith package I was sent included a setup DVD, I found myself unable to load up the game unless I had an active internet connection. I actually found much of the install process somewhat cumbersome and drawn out. Though I had been sent the French PC/Mac version of the game for review, I was offered the option to choose English as the default language during install, which I did.

The package includes stickers to mark fret positions on the top of a guitar neck As an aide mémoire these are great, but the pointy edges do have a tendency to come away and stick to palms as you slide up the neck. The package also includes two sets of stickers marked 1 - 15 that can be placed at the appropriate fret along the top of the neck.

Ubisoft says that only the proprietary cable works with the software, so even if you have a guitar interface kicking around, you'll need the proprietary cable to rock this game. Rocksmith 2014 is available for PC, Mac, Xbox 360, or PlayStation 3, and comes with or without an instrument interface called the Real Tone cable, which has a USB 2.0 connector at one end and a 0.25-in instrument jack at the other. The platform has now been refreshed for 2014, and Gizmag has spent some considerable time in the company of Rocksmtih's infinitely patient, always available virtual guitar teacher on Ubisoft's note highway to callus hell.

When Rocksmith was released in 2011, it had all the ingredients of a gaming pie capable of satisfying kings of Guitar Hero and Rock Band controllers wanting to learn how to play a real instrument in a familiar digital environment and new six-string slingers looking for an entertaining, full-featured learning package.
