Torah Hero - B&T wants you to be a "Bar Mitzvah Bad-ass"

In a great post, B&T of the Bridge & Tunnel Crowd blog, imagines the game Torah Hero. The game riffs on Guitar and Band Hero, but focusing on Jewish music. As he says...

"Hey kids, ever wanted a cool way to practice your Bar/Bat Mitzvah prayers and Torah portions? Then Torah Hero might be just what you need. Here's how I'd design the game as a parody of the Guitar Hero and Rock Band videogame franchises. Neither the people nor companies nor places mentioned have endorsed or agreed to the game...yet. And as you know, now that it's posted here, I own the copyright to the idea...suckas!"

It's not just the concept I love, it's the detail that he put into it. 4 difficulty levels (Reform, Conservative, Orthodox, Chassid), 12 game tiers (including Shabbat, Passover, and Debbie Friedman), and create-a-shul. Each of the 12 game tiers is linked to 8 to 10 well chosen YouTube videos. You could spend an hour just listening to the tracks he links to. In fact you should. Get going....

(I promised B&T I'd come up with a list of Orthodox and Chassid videos for him, but I haven't had time. Sorry)
