I lol'd @ "Solid Rock". How imaginative with the names.
From the website:
"Onscreen lyrics reflect Christian values. Vocalists can sing their hearts out as their friends play the guitar."
Christian values? In my Christian artist's Christian songs? Who would have thought!
It'll be interesting to see how it looks.
anyone who won't play guitar hero or rock band because of the titles of songs or lyrical content is a nutbar
lol My friend admitted to listening to Newsboys way back in middle school, and played a tape for the class during a presentation. Needless to say, we ridiculed him mercilessly, even years later.
I always get a kick out of those Christian rock compilation CDs that they advertise on TV. Some shit will be playing like "Open the Eyes of my Heart" (how the hell does that work?!), with a kid closing his eyes dramatically and staring skyward. So fucking funny.
"Key Features:
Record keeping lets players store high scores per song and unlock new songs in sets of six as they progress through the game and post their scores online."
WHOA NO FUCKING WAY! REALLY?!?!?
For Christians who've always wanted to dabble in "Guitar Hero," but can't bear the possibility of having an independent thought, finally, there's a video game for you!
Where's the song "Believe what I say while I beat you over the head with a bible" HUH?!
Oh wait, I guess this is for all sorts of christians... not just catholics...
There had better be some Stryper songs on that bitch or Imma be pissed!
Unleash your inner rock go...oh wait.
I'm glad I'm at an age where my parents don't try to shove christian game knockoffs anymore, an hour of trying to play Bibleopoly is enough for a life time.
@Richard Blocker
I'd totally nail that chick on the left on a cross.
While I won't be playing this, I think it's quite ignorant to put off all music that has a Christian affiliation as bad. August Burns Red, Norma Jean, FlyLeaf(who are in rock band), and Demon Hunter are just a few of the bands that are good(imo) but also considered "Christian music".
Also, This was already c-blogged yesterday.
@USEDTABE
Sufjun Stevens is really good actually.
im not gonna judge anybodys taste in music...
but
the lyrics on screen in a guitar only games is actually a pretty good idea IMHO
@Holyetheline: My comment was more of a general statement, not really directed at you or your article. But I, along with anyone who has a broad range of taste, know that there are good bands/musicians in every single genre of music on earth, regardless of how watered down it may appear in mainstream media representation. Like in high school, I used to think I liked every type of music EXCEPT country, til I dug a little deeper and found that there are even some kick ass country tunes out there. It's a relative, but you get the point.
@USEDTABE
Yeah dude totally.
Most the music I listen to is Radiohead, Neutral Milk Hotel, David Bazan, Wilco, Margot and the Nuclear So and So's, Neva Dinova, Ladyhawk, M. Ward, Nine Inch Nails, and so on...
Wilco/Uncle Tupelo is amazing country.
I would like to add that I would download and play any song by "Faith + 1" that rock band had available
I'm a christian and i wont be buying this
because...it looks balls
but i am partial to a bit of tobymac
if there was a 'christian' song pack for rock band or whatever...then id be interested.
as i live in the uk, this will either never come out...or be £1000
All they need to sell it is songs that are harder than "Through Fire and Flames". It'd sell like hot cakes because the GH Elitists will be shitting their pants just at the thought of more challenging note charts, not even caring about what the songs are or sound like.
Newsboys are awesome.
Suck it.
WTF??? Skillit is a christan rock band NOOOOOOO!!! They made my FAV dragon ball z music video using one of their song :( NOOOOO
