We've got Christian Guitar Hero, why not Jonas Brothers?
Somebody just sent me this link to a GameDaily story about a new game that is, essentially, "Guitar Hero: Christian Rock."
I'm sure there's enough Christian rock fans out there to potentially make "Guitar Praise: Solid Rock" a hit, though the game will of course be limited by the fact that it only works on PC and Mac and doesn't interface with the "Guitar Hero" or "Rock Band" instruments.
Which got me thinking about how even though MTV and soon Activision are adding new downloadable tracks at a furious rate, they're really just scratching the surface of all the music they could be making playable.
And rather than make a company like Digital Praise come out with its own competing game, isn't there a way to work with them? Assuming they could ensure quality, why not let partners come out with their own special edition of "Guitar Hero" or "Rock Band" with songs curated for an audience they know best, like Christian Rock or kids songs or bluegrass or whatever it might be.
Letting these companies advertise to their audiences that they have their own special edition disc or downloadable track packs would probably sell more copies of either game, thus essentially making Activision and MTV the Microsoft to all these companies' Dell,
Gateway, Lenovo, etc. (The hardware-software metaphor doesn't quite work, but you get the picture).
On a related note, how long is it going to be until Disney (owner of Hollywood Records) comes out with some kind of Jonas Brothers videogame, either for "Guitar Hero" or "Rock Band" or maybe for its own upcoming "Ultimate Band?" Music videogames and the Jo Bros are two fads that I bet a bunch of executives are drooling over the possibility of joining together.

I am so happy to get some hero gold and the hero online gold is given by my close friend who tells me that the hero online money is the basis to enter into the game. Therefore, I should buy hero gold with the spare money and I gain some hero money from other players.

Ben- Thank you for writing respectfully about this, rather than ripping on it like many sites. I am both a more-than-casual gamer and a Christian. I am also a worship leader at my church and we play a few of the songs on this set list. A lot of people at church know I'm a gamer, and they've often asked me if there's a "Christian Guitar Hero." This may not be the biggest market, but it certainly would have some decent sales if made available.
