Power Gig: Rise of the SixString is a rhythm music game developed by Seven45 Studios and released in 2010 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Rather than relying on the simplified button-based controllers common to the genre, the game ships with a functional six-string guitar that doubles as a game controller, bringing its note-matching mechanics closer to the physical experience of playing a real instrument. This approach reportedly drew interest from professional musicians such as Eric Clapton, Dave Matthews, and Kid Rock, who had previously avoided the genre due to its reliance on simplified inputs. The game also includes the AirStrike, a motion-sensing drum controller. While broadly comparable to guitar-focused rhythm games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band, Power Gig distinguishes itself through its emphasis on hardware that bridges the gap between gaming and actual musical performance.
