christian games review

[petrefax]

have a look at
this

poor bloke seems to be havign a real hard time here, on the one hand he's obviously enjoying the games he's reviewing, on the other he has to "stick with the programme" & give them a slating for their non-christian values

[LoopyJuice]

*sigh* when will they learn, i mean come on "Half-life gets a score of 55% (F+)" he may as well go and do something usefull with his time like jump off a building, there is no point in slating a game because it doesn't agree with your beliefs!

I am wondering what score Black and White gets! Especially as you have to essentially "play god" in that game, oh i've just noticed the link, i'll have a look... "Black and White gets a 30% (F-)" what on earth is the point?

[petrefax]

have a look at clive barkers undying then - he REALLY hated that one!

CONCLUSION
Clive Barker's Undying is, by far, the worst game I have ever played. I can easily say that there are no redeeming qualities in this entire game. It is a game that I am certain Satan would approve of.

give him a break - after all, its all down to opinion.

Jumping off a building? thats just harsh.

[steve threlfall]

I believe in god yet have no problem with games invloving murderous rampages and/or drugs escessive violence. There are some really good non violent games out there anyway so everyone should be happy

[PanzerKnight]

hahaha!
man, Undying is prolly the best single player fps i have ever played

[lat3ncy]

UT2003 violent??

I dunno, he clearly hasn't been exposed to enough...

[Slick]

lol it is a bit sad, rather than rate the game on how good it is, he seems to rate it on how liitle violence, bad language and sexual content is in it.

hmm, not very open minded is it?

No point slating someone just because they don't agree with YOUR beliefs.

i hate religion, its legalised mind control, and causes more problems than its worth. just look at northern ireland for a fine example

[LoopyJuice]

The only reason I said what I did (wanting to kickoff a debate aside ) was because he is allowing religion control him completly, he MUST have SOME fun playing those games and yet he ignores the offhand way in which most games are put across and scores them, not as they were meant to be, but as he feels his religion would.

You cannot tell me that you would want someone like this to have any sort of power within the government etc, say hello to Hitler's Germany, my guess would be that everything would be moderated and discarded if it did not agree with his religion, regardless of what he thought of it.

I can lead a very healthy debate on religion but I don't feel this is the place to do it (some people get very angry in religous debates) so I am leaving this point alone now.

How the hell has religion saved more lives than its cost?

[Jimmy Little]

i'm a christian and i don't have a problem with most games, but some i find a liitle off putting, but only when they effect my life or give me a bad dream! for example i enjoyed max payne until it went all satanic and werid, also i used to play GT3 all the time, then i had a bad dream and knew it was related to that so i gave it up, common sence really, it's fact films and games can impact your thoughts and dreams...

[LoopyJuice]

Oh and also, I am wondering whether he should cast aside the review title and just tell people how suited the games are to christianity, because that is essentially all he is doing instead of taking the bits of the game into consideration such as graphics, plot, and more importantly ENJOYMENT.
