5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Fun 1 Aug. 2007
By piccolo VINE VOICE
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
I cannot describe how much I love this game- it's like playing a real guitar added with the fact it trains on on the different strings. The main screen is the same as the stings on the guitar and the shoulder buttons are the cords- you can strum the 'screen' like a real guitar and change the tone/tune by using the cords (shoulder buttons and d-pad) it also sounds like a real guitar if you plug in a small speaker into the headphone jack - you might even want to try busking in the underground ! The Demo i played came pre-loaded with a bunch of tracks (real songs) so i had a crack at playing along to Bob Marely (No Woman No Cry)- it takes you step by step on how to play then it your turn which is great fun especially when you got a partner singing with you. I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys there music and even for anyone who wants to learn to play a guitar by doesn't want to pay for expensive lessons.

3.0 out of 5 stars Portable guitar has some let downs, but a great learning aid! 14 Oct. 2008
By Amazon Customer
Fun: 3.0 out of 5 stars   
I am a musician having studied for five years and achieving BA. I have always love the guitar and been envious of others being able to play one so easy. I bought Jam sesions second hand as i'd heard mixed reviews about it. The first point to be made is this is not a game. It has been said many times but people still think it's a game! It turns the ds into a tool, so hard core gamers are out.

First, what i liked. I liked the set up menu, which states where everything is. I like the backgrounds and strings you can chose (some are said to be unlockable but they were all there), and the range of popular songs are great- Avril Lavigne to Coldplay. I was pleased i mastered Coldplay's yellow! These can be easily youtubed if you're not sure how they go, which is convinient! I loved how there was a real guitar sound- it was beautiful! It really did sound like an accoustic! One of my fave bits is the ear training. My only regret is i didn't discover this last year as it would have come in handy! Others have also complained about the sound level- this is meant to be played in a quiet area, and if you need it louder, there are cables available for you to hook it up to an amp, and it sounds fab though one of those! There are also sound effects which can be added, which will please guitarists who like effects. Some have also complained about how long you can record on it for, but remember it is a cartridge so it can only hold so much info at one time, and it is meant to be a notebook for ideas, so perfect for riffs and licks, but not so good for full songs.

Okay, the downsides. Like i said before, this isn't a game, so it will put some people off. Read more ›

2.0 out of 5 stars Define 'Jam'.. 8 Jan. 2008
By Sian Raven
Fun: 3.0 out of 5 stars   
I bought the game with the belief that you would be playing guitar along to recognisable music tracks as well as being able to create your own.
I was disappointed to find that the majority of song tracks were in Spanish, and of those that weren't, only a couple were recognisible.
Also I presumed there'd be a backing track to play along with, instead you're expected to play it solo, and this makes some of the tracks confusing as you're not always sure where you're meant to be in the tune.

When you play the tunes you're not graded on how well you've done, in fact you could make a complete mess of it and still get the 'congratulations' screen at the end.

There are many ways this could have been done better, and was a bit of a let down. I'll be trading it in soon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great fun 21 April 2010
By Merlin the Happy Pig
Verified Purchase
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
I don't see why people knock this - first, it's NOT a game. Where in the title Jam Sessions suggests that it is a game?
I have played guitar for fun and semi-professionally for over 30 years and I love this fun little tool. It's a laugh and although it takes a fair bit of getting used to I managed to create and record some very nice backing guitar with it which I can jam along to on my real guitars.
It's not going to make you Eric Clapton overnight if that's what you want but in the abscence of a proper guitar you'll get the idea of changing chords and a reasonably accurate feel for strumming. I was particularly impressed by the ability to get a realistic 'back' stroke. If you want to try guitar but don't have the confidence to go out and throw a lot of money at it you could do a lot worse than chucking three quid at this little gem!

4.0 out of 5 stars This is no "Guitar Hero" - It's a real instrument ! 1 Dec. 2007
By Mr. S. Poore
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
This is not "Guitar Hero" on a DS. In fact this is not even a game. There might be a few songs to play along with (not that you'll ever have heard of most of them) but this section of the package is light-weight and poorly implemented.

No this is a real instrument! It might sound a bit quiet - but connect it up to a real amp, get a few songs with the chords written out, and you'll be playing along like a real Guitar Hero.

Effects like Distortion and Phasing are hidden away in there for different sounds.

Not convinced? Just search on YouTube for videos of people playing this thing at live gigs!
