I purchased Rocksmith 2014 ( XBOX 360 version) for my boys for Christmas.
I've found myself playing it as much as them ( never played a guitar in my life. )
The issue is this ( long winded ): I had a launch 360 that RROD, was fixed by Microsoft, RROD'd again I paid to have Microsoft fix it, had the power supply go out ( I bought a used one from GameSTop), RROD'd again and paid a kid on Craigslist $30 to put it in his oven. That last fix lasted about 2 months before it died again and I put it in the garbage.
Late November, a guy at work bought a newer 360 and offered me his launch 360. I took it, it worked and thought "Rocksmith would be great on the TV. I'll buy it for the 360; Rocksmith can't be too taxing on the unit and give it a nice life."
Two days outside of Christmas, the unit won't read the disc ( was able to copy to HD shortly after ), freezes, won't read the disc (even though installed ), freezes and in general is dying and bringing out my rage.
It's convenient having the game on the living room TV - it makes it easy for people to get to and use.
But it's also on the PC.
And the PC isn't as convenient, because I may be using it to play BF4 while one of the boys wants to play Rocksmith.
I have 2 options:
1) Find a newer, 4GB XBOX on Craigslist for $100 and solve the issue.
2) Cut my losses, buy it on the PC and deal with it there. The small bonus I see with the PC is that the DLC goes on sale, so that would save me money in the longer run.
Anyone have a suggestion here ?
