Stairway to Guitar Heaven

For those of you have wasted your life developed amazing hand eye cooridnation trying to emulate rock gods on Guitar Hero. But have always worried that worshipping at their alter will lead to your damnation, or at least, to sore fingers and thumbs, worry no more.

A Christian version of computer game Guitar Hero is set to be launched in the US. Called Guitar Praise it forgos the mainstream to feature Christian rock acts. Probably mainly acoustic based, with a lot of tamborines, "you'll soon be rockin' with the best while praising the Lord!" declares the blurb on Digitalpraise.com. Hallelujah!

Uncomfirmed reports have Slash, star of Guitar Hero 3, quoted as saying, "It will probably sell more than the next Guns N' Roses album. If it's ever released." Enough said, especially if that last quote was true.
