Spotted instore in Asda - Rocksmith PS with the cable for £15.
They also had the 2014 version, and Xbox (2014) for £20
As these were standard 'white' Shelf labels, I would expect it to be a national price.
About Rocksmith:
Introducing the next stage in the evolution of the guitar game. Rocksmith is the first and only game where your controller is any real guitar.
Nothing plastic. Nothing fake. Just the most authentic guitar experience in music gaming. By plugging into your console, you’ll develop real skills and real styles while playing real music. Featuring gameplay that automatically adjusts to your personal ability, and innovative game design that makes playing music visually intuitive, Rocksmith will engage experienced musicians as well as those who have never picked up a guitar before in their life.
You’ll unlock mini games to hone specific skills. You’ll be able to choose from a large catalogue of songs in different styles. And you’ll experience it all with an actual guitar. Nothing compares to playing a real guitar. Except playing Rocksmith.
Rocksmith Features:
When we say any guitar we mean any guitar. Whether it’s the guitar sitting in your attic that you have forgotten about up till now, or the guitar you are yet to buy, Rocksmith lets you plug any guitar into your Xbox 360 or PlayStation®3 system. As long as your guitar has a jack, you can play. No jack on your guitar? Head down to your local music store, get an inexpensive pickup, and problem solved.
Difficulty settings that adapt to your ability. You love a challenge, but hate being overwhelmed. Rocksmith understands this, and knows exactly how far to push to keep you entertained and addicted. With dozens of difficulty levels, you will automatically progress from single notes to complex chords without getting in over your head.
Lots of music. Lots of styles. One of the most satisfying moments for any guitar player is hearing yourself play your favourite song for the first time. Rocksmith has amassed an amazing library of songs from different music genres allowing players to experience those moments first hand.
Play songs instead of just learning them. You want to play new songs, but you don't want to wade through guitar tabs or cringe through poorly produced tutorial videos. No problem. Rocksmith will not only present you with new songs, but will also challenge you to step away from the notes on screen and play songs from memory. Imagine that. A video game that will prepare you for international rock-stardom.

great considering realtone cable is rarely less than £25

Agreed.
I understand the cable is universal, so can be used with any version and format of the game. You can pick up cheap second-hand Rocksmith games, so a good way to start on the series cross-platform.

Have hardly any games in my asda, I doubt it'll be in there. Not voted either way.

Brill price on this, bought for the PC a couple of months back. Been playing for about 12 years and even I learn new bits and bobs. Said bye to my life when I bought the Dream Theater song pack :neutral_face:

That's great news, I didn't realise the cable was cross platform. I have both versions on 360 but may look out for it standalone on PS4 now, it's been ages since I played (and gawd knows I need the practise!)

I don't think they've done stand alone physical on the PS4, it's always bundled with the cable. If you keep an eye on the Canadian/US digital stores though, it occasionally pops up for about £8-9. You'll have to the buy DLC from that store rather than the UK, but it'll work on your UK account.

I use the no cable method as I can run it through my pedal board then, but this is a steal I will be picking one up as a back up cable!

Picked up my copy this morning, once they could find the key to the locked plastic security box it was in !
Went for the 2014 version - anyone know if the original game is worth picking up as well, as it can be got for £1 pre-owned ?

If you're on PS3 or Xbox360, then yes.*
The base (On disc) songs are better in RS1 IMO, plus you can buy an import tool in the gamestore for about a tenner and it'll bring all the RS1 songs (Except a couple) into RS2014 with nice new arrangements. No need to load up RS1 again, but have all the songs available in RS2014.
