Jesus shreds with a Les Paul

This is what I call cashing in on a fad:  Guitar Praise, which is Guitar Hero with Christian Rock…

Grab the guitar and play along with top Christian bands! Shred those riffs or blast the bass…you add a unique sound to the solid Christian rock. But watch out: if you can’t keep up, the artists will take a break and stop the music. Crank it up and try again — you’ll soon be rockin’ with the best while praising the Lord!  Order the second guitar and jam with a friend!

Judging from the product description, it’s a clone of Guitar Hero 3, including duels where you send “surprises” across to your rival guitarist to try to trip them up.  It’s a bit pricey, though — $100 for the game/guitar, and $70 for an extra guitar.  Comes for Windows AND Mac OS-X users.

But honestly… who would buy this?  Aside from the person who has enough money that they can afford a monitor large enough that 2 players can play on the same screen.  Or the geek who hooks the computer up to their wide screen LCD… or something.  Anyway.  I’m intrigued, simply to see how well it’s gonna sell.  My guess is “not very well at all.”
