Has anyone been following the progress of the Left Behind videogames? The company has made a real-time strategy game called Left Behind: Eternal Forces based on the evangelical apocalypse books.

I'm amused by one of the features listed: "Conduct physical & spiritual warfare using the power of prayer to strengthen your troops in combat and wield modern military weaponry throughout the game world."

Basically, they're advertising one of the main features will be that Christians can kill non-believers. It seems like a public relations nightmare waiting to happen. To be fair, you also have the option of playing as the Antichrist and killing Christians in the online matches. I'd love to see the server division of forces on that one.

It'll be interesting to see if the groups who get tied up in knots over video game violence will defend or reject this effort. I imagine the defenders will discuss "context," as though the violence in Grand Theft Auto had no context and simply happened in a vacuum.

As excited as I am about upcoming games, (Twilight Princess!), I think this one could shape up to be the more interesting to watch from a news/cultural standpoint. From a gameplay standpoint, I'll reserve judgment until it's actually on the shelves... I may be an atheist, but I'll play anything if it's fun.
 
In the name of Christ, die mother fuckers.
 
Do I get to kill Kirk Cameron if I play as the Antichrist?
 
Is Pat Robertson a boss?
 
Do the christians use machine guns, or do they throw bibles? And if so, is there a code to get Infinate Bibles?

lmao I read this, and decided to pirate the game :biggrin: It actually isn't all that... to be honest... it sucks. The Christians have guns and what not, bu the game is queer as hell! lol they have like, 'prayer' powers to kill the non-believers (pretty much Jews, Atheists, ect.) and they like, run around killing random people. HDFBJKGJFDSFJAFJGASJLFGLGFAJGFAJSGFL! I should kill the creators of this game for wasteing 15 minutes of my life with this shithole of a game. I can guarantee God would've wanted it with the Christians having tanks, missles, jeeps, bazookas, and what not. Not guns and small gun shit. And then the devil would have nukes... god damn they should've gotten it right.

You're thinking of "Billy Graham's Bible Blaster," which is available at TheSimpsons.com Look in the Rod Flanders file to play.

The only problem with the game, if it is based on the books, is that all of the true believers are already gone from the earth. I think that was chapter 1 or 2 in the first book of the series.
 
Well no wonder why he TK'd you! When you sit there saying you wanna fight with the Anti-christ, I think he would tend to turn his bow a little bit so it would hit your head :biggrin:
 
lol It seems like a pretty gay game in general. It'll piss off alot of Atheists and other non-Christian religons prolly >.>
