It is a blast!!! It is literally just like playing Rockband or Guitar Hero, except it it Christian music!! That is all I listen to, unless I am on the job site. Otherwise, its all Christian Contemporary, and so this is perfect!! These are the types of games that should be in more homes! What a great way to spend time together as a family! :) This game was very easy to install into my computer, and setting it up. I like how the game gives detailed results of your game play as well. Highly recommend!!!

Pro's- It feels like a regular Guitar Hero or Rock Band guitar. The buttons are similar and the tactile feedback is identical. The game loads relatively quickly (its a PC only game. its not for game consoles:( bummer) As for game play if you have played the other versions its pretty much the same old stuff. The music slection is pretty good with possible expansions coming out in the next year or so. The guitars in the game not only look different but also play different. they have different sounds and characteristics that other guitar games lack. Its hard to explain if you dont play a guitar, but they all sound and play different and GP does a good job of capturing that. You dont get boos and cat calls if you mess up. you get the distinct sound of a buzzed chord and the sound goofs up for a second, but if you recover the band recovers. If you keep losing it the song stops and you get to start over. No negative feedback at all. Con's- It only for the PC. I understand that its expensive to get signed onto a big label for game consoles, but it may have been worth it. Especially for the Wii as its a more family oriented console to begin with. The background isnt as interactive as some of the other guitar games but its more customizeable. Is that a word? OVERALL- Some people claim to have a bad time with the reciever for the wireless guitar. No problem here. Just so you know, SPACEBAR IS THE PAUSE BUTTON!!This is a good game for christian families that want their kids to be able to play video games but not worry about what they are being exposed to. Its worth it, buy it!!Read full review
Guitar Praise is just plain fun! Parents don't have to worry about bad language or negative influences. This game is for all ages. My nephew (age 14) has it and I recently bought it (age 49). I can't wait to get together to play against him. He'll probably kick my butt, but it still is great fun. Digital Praise has already released a 5 song addition for only 5 bucks. And according to their customer service rep they'll be releasing a 25 song upgrade in the next few weeks (spring '09) My advise? If you're looking for a game the family can share, this is it.
Awesome game, Better than Guitar Hero and Rock Band both. I just wish they would make another one of these Guitar Praise games!

LOVE this item! I used it at church with my 2nd Grade Sunday School class. Gave them the warning that I was not to hear "You stink" or "You suck" to anyone who wasn't going well. They totally came together and were cheering each other on. Their hands were too small to strum and do the riff thing at the same time. They were working together to do that while other kids were yelling out what colors came next. It was an awesome team building time.
