New 'Religiously correct' game!

I was utterly shocked when I first read about it and decided that I should check back here to see if you guys knew about it already.
Seems you didn't. So here you go, have fun and don't forget to look for your asses once they've fallen off.
Their site
On a side note, I think this shouldn't be allowed to get published at all. Think we should or can do something about it?
After all, they did rant on and on about Doom, GTA and other games like that (excluding the ones that do show intestines/blood flying about).
Other than that they also claimed it was a 'good' game because you weren't able to shoot policemen ... as if they're better than normal people.

Lousy hypocrits

We have taken great care to make certain that consequences for poor gamer behavior will adequately reflect the gamers actions. Accordingly, unnecessary killing will result in lower Spirit points.
You have GOT to be kidding me.

By the way, shouldn't this be in the politics forum? At least, the other religion-based threads have.

I'll bet that none of the developers are actually Christian. They just saw the market for it and are going to profit from it. I just love Capitalism.

It's a free country and this game will probably be released to great reviews, even if it really really sucks.

I like how they try to defend the violence in the game because the player is not doing the actual killing, but instead is ordering subordinates to carry out the killing. People don't realize that DooM is THE holiest game ever created. Because the player is saving all mankind from the forces of hell. How do you get more sacred than that?

We anticipate our titles will be classified as both action, strategy and adventure genres, and will likely receive either an "E" rating (appropriate for ages 6 and up) or a "T" rating (appropriate for ages 13 and up).
Ha. E in a game with killing in it? I'd like to see that.

I've been saying that time and time again. I even used that in a debate in my english class about video game violence being bad. "How does killing demons that would otherwise destroy humanity cause bad behavior?" That shut them up pretty quickly

Heh, they forget that Sandy Peterson is a Mormon.

As for you guys saying this shouldn't be permitted to be published, you need to shut up. That's not how free speech works. These guys have done nothing except capitalize on the hopes and fears of lots of people (and a book series that does the same). It's their right to be stupid. If I found out the game was really fun I'd play it anyway. Most religious games are too preachy and no fun though.

A game about carrying out all sacraments?. Start on level 1 with baptism and progress from there .

As long as I can kill things, I can bear playing it.

The reason I don't want it to get published is because they've been bashing Doom, GTA and the like claiming "killing is bad!!!1!1!11!1!1!1"
If they'd first apologise for bashing those games, THEN I'd have no problem with it.
Again, lousy hypocrits

Yes, It's my will to get this game published. Hmm... I wonder how long it will take for mods to be released for it. I could see lots of people modding this game XD

If I dont believe in God, then he doesnt exist for me, therefor he can't touch me, thus I can ignore His will!
HAH! Now what'll you say?

my highschool principal was also a priest. he had what they now call "priest sickness". this is a fairly new term because its been so taboo to study the clergy (or atleast any "holy man" that cuts his sexual side off for "God"). it really means he has sex with young boys.
just thought i would put this here. yay for religion. come sit on my lap and repent, billy. mmmmmmm........i'll let you play my new christian video game....

Yay!
If they'd be against it's release, I'd actually start believing there IS justice out there. It's just a bit hard to find

What the friggin' heck?! I just read (it was on wikipedia so correct me if I'm wrong) that rock musicians were generally depicted as satanic in this thrown together peice of garabage they call a game.

I myself play the guitar and am a big fan of Metallica, and this is just plain mean. Why does religion seem to have problems with everything except for itself?
