I believe this cable is platform independent, so the cable you get with the console version will also work with the PC version etc.

So the requirement is that the guitar has a 1/4" jack. So an accoustic without a pickup won't work with this game, but an accoustic with a pickup and a jack to plug into an amp will work. But they recommend an electric guitar.
Seriously, who would play such a game with an acoustic guitar? Someone who's gay, that's who.

The trailer makes the game seem quite stressful. Looks like you really need to know your tabs to play it well. Also the way they show the tabs is quite weird. They show it vertical, like in Guitar Hero, but guitarists who are used to practice with tabs are used to practice it horizontal, which makes sense as this is normally the angle you hold your guitar....
