Instead of the health and weapons points used in other role-playing games, players collect love, hope and faith points to power their missions. When they meet foes, instead of fragging them as in Halo 2, the disciples earn their halos by praying for them or using the "finger of God" to convert them.

You are a heathen and must be tied to a stake and burned for your witchery. Or...listen to Dave Matthews Band CDs for 2 straight weeks.

Which punishment do you want?

That wasn\'t -10 for you...it was for the boring idea for a game. They had a game like this back in the days of the NES. It was interesting.

I totally want that game.

Also, need to get on Ebay and finally buy Bible Adventures for NES. I met a kid who had the whole damn Bible series for NES - and he wouldn\'t give it up!

Bastard.

God damn him.

Pick your punishment for giving this holy game a -10. \'tis blesphemy to have a negative opinion for this game. Burn at the stake...or listen to Dave Matthews for 2 weeks.

Super religious kid. Do a search for "god" and his name either Clowd or alliswell and you\'ll see plentya fighting.

I actually read the article today and I don\'t know why but it made me angry, especially about the one where the humans battle the dinosaurs. Funny considering the dinosaurs lived 64 million years before humans even existed.

You got to be kidding

I don\'t play video games to convert people

I saw a preview of something like this.  Some guy put a spell or something on somebody and he bent down and started praying

It\'s so corny its unbelieveable

I have 0 interest in this game

There is another religious game coming out that has you playing mini games like spit the red seas etc  it is a better take imo

Super religious?  If you think I\'m super religious you don\'t go out much

What article did you read?

clowd, the threads I was referring to were a couple years ago when you were going nuts over science vs. religion. Its 11:30  and I had a cup of coffee so I\'m not going to sleep anytime soon so I searched the threads.

Those just name a couple. The way you went overboard is how I got my assumption that you were super religious.

How can I be the only one who finds this so incredibly entertaining?

I actually hope this becomes available near me.

Come on. Magical converting wands! (Dissimilar from what priests use for small boys.)

I did go overboard at points, yes

But you seem to ignore I was either called ignorant,  stupid,  a kid, moron etc 1000+ times in those topics.  If you count the amount of flaming I was responsible for maybe 15% of it,  while 85% of it was directed at me.

Oh and that topic http://www.psx2central.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=22481&highlight=evolution

That is my best post ever

I did lose my temper quickly later in the topic,  as I am prone to outside of chat rooms,  but my first post in that topic pretty much tells you why I believe.

Eh, a lot of words there clowd. I\'m too lazy to read, lol. You haven\'t lost your temper for a long time so I do have to give you credit for that.

He called me a tool not too long ago, although I have this sinking feeling I deserved it.  Oh and LIC, you ever going to admit to stealing my insult?
