eh? i haven’t read the article yet but my initial thought is.. how is that possible?
Instead of beating someone down, you ask them for the money or what?
This type of stuff is lame.
Spend some time on getting into the word and speak the word, please stop making crappy things like this please?
this is exactly the kind of “gimicky/lame” stuff that in my opinion actually pushes people away from religion.
Reminds of this.
I actually like this guys outlook on the subject.
And the rest of you should actually read the article. He talks about how GTA is popular because it is fun and “IF” his company were to do an open environment game that would be their first concern.
I totally see it now……
A guy in a three piece suit and a wicked good smile drives the streets in his converted Ice Cream truck now dubbed the “Jesus Mobile”. Instead of throwing bottles or rocks he picks up “Tracts” and hurls them at nonbelievers, sometimes knocking them down (they’re heavy Tracts mind you). When he parks the Jesus mobile, he starts “running” the streets in his spit shined leather shoes, passing out bibles violently, sometimes knocking over pedestrians. For his weapon, he carries a microwave emitting weapon known as the “Holy Roller” that literally rolls people over. It’s a non lethal weapon that knocks non christians on their butt, allowing enough time for Mr. Christian to slap a tract on them. When he cruises the “seedy part of town” (Bars, Strip Joints, Clubs), he turns on the Jesus Blaster in his Jesus Mobile and literally blasts the glass windows right off their frames on the intended establishment he is trying to “reach”. Once the Jesus Blaster is fired, everyone inside the “seedy” bars or clubs comes running out allowing you just enough time to either slap a tract on them or fire the “Holy Roller” in their direction. For main bosses, you have the EMOtater, an Emo obbsessed boy or girl that rules the streets with their black ensembles and black eyeliner. Their weapon of choice is the “Cry Baby” gun that fires musical notes from the latest My Chemical Romance album at you. No worries, all you need to do is fire up the Holy Roller, gather up some tracts and get out your “Super Bible” for some good smackdown fun. Once the EMOtater is defeated, you’re given 1 minute to convert him or else he gathers back his full strength. You can convert him in two different ways: Max out your Holy Roller Gun and fire a special attack move or get out the “Holy Springs Water Bottle”(Glass bottle would be too violent) and throw it at The EMOtater. Once he is “converted”, he is given a three piece suit, leather shoes, black tie, and a wicked good smile. His hair is cut short and the makeup wiped clean. He is now MR. CHRISTIAN. The same moves can be made on all the main bosses like PUNKtastic, METALman, or RAPadoodle. Slowly, one by one, your army grows with these newly converted followers. You can easily switch positions with any of the newly converted and take on their personas (each one has a distinct flavor). Stay tuned for an update on the music soundtrack…….
The soundtrack in game consists of over 100 specially selected tracks. Here in your Jesus Mobile, you can press the “radio” button and tune in to Worship101, playing the hit worship tunes of today. You can tune to inContemporary, playing todays top contemporary songs. Or you can unlock the special “Devil’s Radio” option where it will play today’s hit rock songs (edited for today’s young gamer). Most of the so-called “Christian Rock” will be playing on “Devil’s Radio” because rock music is of the Devil! You can’t change the suit but you can accessorize with different touches like the “Wealth of God” gold watch, the “WWJD Bracelet”, the large diamond encrusted cross necklace, etc. For guys there are no earrings because that is only for the gender bending non Christians and we don’t want any of that rubbish in our game. Girls can accessorize their characters with differing hair (in this case, mostly differing kinds of ponytails), gold accessories like watches, earrings, necklaces, etc are also included. Some of these items, especially the WWJD bracelet, offer a POWERUP when your Spiritual Energy is low. All in all, it’s a pretty fantastic game with many of the pitfalls and perils of a standard Christian life. Rated E for Everyone!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
Brandon for the EPIC win!
At first I thought Brandon was trying too hard. Then I read:
“All in all, it’s a pretty fantastic game with many of the pitfalls and perils of a standard Christian life.”
LOL.
i would SO play that game Brandon! lols. i think you should be writing the story for it! also what tracks would you guys like to see in a decent Guitar Praise game. heres some of mine that i posted on the guitar praise post.
Haste the Day- The Closest Thing to Closure
The Human Flight Committee – Shes a car Destroyer
I am Terrified – Some Glad Morning
Inked in Blood- Lest i sleep the sleep of death
Letter Kills- Don’t Believe
Life in Your Way- Threads of Sincerity
War of Ages – Battle On
no wonder why people say christians just take everything from the “world” and turn it into a “christian” thing…
PLEASE just make something original pleaaaase..im a christian but i’m ashamed of christians copying lots of things
I STEAL YOUR CAR IN THE NAME OF JESUS!
Hahahahaaha..
this is hilarious. I cannot stop laughing
I always thought it’d be cool to have an Oblivion like game only you are David and you have to fight all his battles, since he had so many. Of course Goliath would be the training fight of sorts and you’d spend a good portion running from Saul but it’d be fun to play as him when he chases down the enemy to get all their wives back. :-P That’s an open world game too so you can do other things but the further away from God’s will you get the more trouble and wars you have to fight.
Justin, a lot of things are popular, doesn’t mean I want to copy them.

I remember my mom bought me some Christian Nintendo game when I was young. I forget the name of it but it was old school. The graphics and gameplay were horrible.
all we know how to do is copy the world and spin it.
Brandon, I remember an old Moses game for the Nintendo. You had to find all the animals in the level for the ark before you could move on and there was evil animals or some sort of enemy and obstacles that hindered your progress. It was actually real fun I remember, wish I still had it, haha.
i like crappy christian stuff!
my best friend when i was a kid had this one nintendo game and all i remember is that you had to get holy spirit points, which resembled a dove, kind of like the hearts you would get on zelda. tell me you wouldnt wanna play that!
super noahs ark was amazing
^yeah, it looks like DOOM or Wolfenstien 3D for Christians! hahaha
actually wasnt the left behind PC game designed with GTA in mind?
Yeah I guess it was similar.
