Sunday Comics: Dead Island The Christian set has a message-filled, re-skinned doppelganger of almost every form of entertainment these days. The most recent, relevant to our interests? Guitar Praise: Solid Rock, the Guitar Hero knockoff with a positive message from Digital Praise, maker of all things fun and biblically inspired.
Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet: praise Him with the psaltery and harp. Praise Him with the timbrel and dance: praise Him with stringed instruments and organs. Praise Him with a cheap plastic guitar with five coloured fret buttons and a whammy bar. (Psalm 150)
MTV Multiplayer has taken delivery of Guitar Praise: Solid Rock — the Christian Rock-themed Guitar Hero knock-off — and performed a solemn unboxing ceremony.
The box itself makes some pretty bold claims of UNPARALLELED GAMEPLAY, informing would-be players that they can SHRED the riffs, THUMP the bass and BLAST that solid Christian Rock.
They say that the Devil has all the best tunes — ‘they’ are noticeably quieter on the subject of who has the most original video games, however. (Hint: it appears to be the devil again)
The description for Guitar Praise: Solid Rock seems a little familiar – Two guitars can be connected at the same time, so two guitarists can play together – either on the same track or one on lead, the other on bass. Players press the fret buttons and strum on the strum bar in time to the colour-coded notes as they scroll onscreen.
I’m sure I have heard that somewhere before — almost as though someone has been coveting his neighbour’s gameplay.
Anyhoo, GP:SR lets you strum along to the very best in Christian Music – bands like Thousand Foot Krutch, Relient K, the faintly sinister-sounding Whitecross and many more who I am sure actually do exist, but have yet to make it to the secular radio stations here in the UK.
Guitar Praise is out for the PC and Mac in September, lifestyle sold separately. Guitar Praise: Guitar Hero for Christians [via Boing Boing Gadgets]
