I mean, sure, it looks good and it sounds like it could be fun. But do I really want to watch a cartoon character play a guitar from all possible angles? Will this really teach me how to play guitar?
I believe that what you need is someone to show you how to hold your guitar and how to use your pick and your fingers, but after that all you need is some good tablature and you’re set to go. The quality of lessons depend on the material of the lessons and not so much on presentation.
I think that if I would practice with iPerform3D, I would spend 90% of my time rotating the little guy around and only 10% actually playing. So in my opinion, if you want to learn to play a guitar, pick up your guitar and practice. If you want to have some fun, go and get iPerform3D.
