The Mass: We Pray video and website are fake so save all your anti-christian vitriol mother farkers.

It's a viral campaign for the EA game Dante's Inferno.

Those gold Zelda cartridges are the sexiest thing ever produced by man. To this day, whenever I see a picture of one I want to kneel down and blow into it.

On the upside, the Angry Video Game Nerd need not ponder what game to insult next.

more americans, as a percentage, go to church now than they did in the first 100 years of this Nation's existence.

but that is good for the Owners of this Nation.

My Southern Baptist church has a video game. It plays music while you sit on the couch and don't dance.

Yeah, I kept thinking "What's that name of that law I'm thinking of? No, it isn't Godwin. I finally got 'Poe' just before the vidja ended."

/But yeah, you know who else disliked Catholics?

I guess you'd have to equate Obama to, ironically, "Black & White." Lots of pre-release hype followed by meh.

You act like we only voted for Obama because of his Hopey McChange rhetoric. Little do you realize that most of the Obama voters you meet will never vote republican, ever.

No, I might vote Republican again, as soon as they stop antagonizing my friends and family and blackmailing me with that WE ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT CAN PROTECT YOU FROM THE BROWN MENACE rhetoric. Oh, and don't biatch about the deficit during the worst recession in three generations after running it up like drunken sailors.

Obama isn't great by any means. But as a voter politically starved for decent governance and a metaphorical well-grilled steak nowhere in sight, I picked the guy offering me moldy bread hidden with a layer of peanut butter over the guy saying I'll get shot if I don't eat the steaming pile of dog poo.

Yeah this pretty much sums up my opinion too.

I never understood the church thing. You go there to listen to some guy read the bible to you. We all know how to read, can't you just sit at home and read it? They spend so much building these gigantic ornate megachurches, couldn't their money be better spent feeding the homeless or something?

It just seems like trying to make a statement moreso than actually making a difference.

/my 2 cents

Is Bill Gates and Micro$oft behind this religious revival?

To be honest, there's actually a lot of material to work with in the Bible that would make a great game. It's certainly not hurting for lack of story. "Shadow of the Colossus" is arguably inspired by David vs. Goliath.

What cripples the chances of any Bible game is that it has to be uncontroversial to the most backwards and thin-skinned demograph in America, many of whom really don't know what the fark is in the book in the first place.
