Guitar Praise, the Christian alternative to Guitar Hero

United States
May 1, 2009 2:14pm CST
May 1, 2009 I know that gaming systems are as common as cell phones and laptop computers. Many families have Guitar Hero for entertainment in their home and kids are hearing songs that parents enjoyed a few years back. Although I love music I have to think about what my kids are listening to and Guitar Praise has better lyrics and the music rocks just as hard as anything Guitar Hero has to offer. If you have never heard of Guitar Praise then let me enlighten you. Check out my article on Associated Content. Tell me what you think about it. http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/1702407/guitar_praise.html?cat=2

I've never heard of it and haven't read your article yet but I will after I post this. Guitar Praise sounds like a very good idea for people that don't listen to the music that is on the Guitar Hero game.

I read your article it's very good. But, take that for what it's worth because I don't really know much about the topic and I can't play Guitar Hero on the easiest level LOL

Oh wow, this is one of the weirdest thing I've seen in the gaming history. The reason people like guitar hero is because of the popular bands. I don't recognize any from the praise except Skillet. But then again I'm not into christian music. Maybe if they'd sell it without the guitar, someone would buy it.

I think the whole point is the action but its more about the music.

I love music, and that sounds like a good system. I do not know if it is available here in Winnipeg, I am more into piano though, but if the lyrics are better, it would be good for someone who is learning to play the guitar without anything offensive. So where can you get this?

The link for Guitar Praise is at the end of my AC article or you can go on line and type in Guitar Praise and find a dealer and have it shipped to your house.

Guitar Praise is a guitar game with a guitar controller and a game that you play along with. I've been on myLot a lot, I just haven't been posting any discussions because I'm writing for other sites.

Hi gitfiddleplayer! I actually saw one of these at a Christian book store at the mall about two weeks ago. I haven't heard any of the music but I would think it is a nice alternative.

Hey Jen, the music rocks, I would put up against anything currently playing on radio.

What a great idea. The only problem is that they have came out with this product so late into Guitar Hero's career that everyone has already bought one. So parents probably don't want to spend another $100. Great product idea though.

They could always take Guitar Hero back and get a refund.

I will probably send your link to my daughter and son in law, as well as my brother. The son in law, and the brother are into gaming and brother is a minister. Shoot, my son in law and my daughter both have ministerial degrees as well. Son in law works with a church youth group. I think you are right on target. Thanks.

My kids are grown and have families of their own, so I'm not much into gaming systems but they have them for their kids. I don't know whether they've come across Guitar Praise, but I'll have to ask. Brightest Blessings.

I didn't know you were on Associated Content. I will check it out I have not heard of this particular game but it sounds nice. We play Guitar Here all the time as a family, it is something we can all enjoy doing together, but to have more family friendly music would be really nice. I will check it out.

I checked out your article. It was great. I didn't know about this before. I am going to check it out. I like guitar hero, but some of the songs just aren't for me. I think guitar praise would be more to my liking . Thanks for recommending it.
