    Default What game would Jezus play?

    Had a good laugh with this one. Please comment and make me laugh some more.

    Test the wares, my friends:

    There's no passage in the bible that says, "And thou shalt lift lots of animals over your head and carry them to Jerusalem." Also, the way you lose in the Baby Moses game is by dropping Moses in the river which feels a little morbid for a game that is presumably aimed at children. Not only have you just drowned a baby, but you've doomed the Jews. Nice going, kid.
    Or this one:

    Winning the game requires knowledge of a bunch of obscure bible trivia, constantly completing bizarre mini games that seem to be pointless rituals of repetition, and even if you do everything you're supposed to, God can randomly take everything away from you. In other words, it's just like being a devout Christian.

    Ha! A friend of mine came across #2, The Bible Game, and brought it to a party at my place a few months back. It was the funniest video game I've ever played (all unintentional humor, of course). It took tacky to new extremes and we were all quickly rooting for the Wrath of God to strike.

    I had that Noah game on an old 386, came with one of those bundles of 1-200 games you got back then...

    It didn't work though. It worked for a few minutes, then crashed.
    Still maintain that crying on the pitch should warrant a 3 match ban

    There is a ring of truth to what the authors say:

    Not surprisingly, we found that devout fundamentalists
    often make incredibly bad game designers.
    They have the same shortcomings as the Islamic boomsky crowd: no sense of humor, no imagination, no class.

    ...And the obligatory "Jesus Saves" joke:

    Also, no offense meant to Jesus. I think he was an alright character; I just hate the people who built a crazy-ass cult up around him.

    Seriously, if he does come back, he's gonna be pissed at what the Christians have done in his name.
