"Critics say Christian-oriented video game glorifies religion"
http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/capress/061212/entertainment/apocalypse_video_game_1

Quote:
Critics say "Left Behind: Eternal Forces" glorifies religious violence against non-Christians. Some liberal groups have been urging a boycott, and on Tuesday they urged Wal-Mart to withdraw the game from its shelves.
FINALLY the conservatives are getting a taste of what it's like to have a video game made into a huge issue.

Sweet Mother of Joseph.

� Lead the Tribulation Force from the book series , including Rayford, Chloe, Buck and Bruce against Nicolae Carpathia � the AntiChrist.

� Conduct physical & spiritual warfare : using the power of prayer to strengthen your troops in combat and wield modern military weaponry throughout the game world.

� Recover ancient scriptures and witness spectacular Angelic and Demonic activity as a direct consequence of your choices.

� Command your forces through intense battles across a breathtaking, authentic depiction of New York City .

� Control more than 30 units types - from Prayer Warrior and Hellraiser to Spies, Special Forces and Battle Tanks!

� Enjoy a robust single player experience across dozens of New York City maps in Story Mode � fighting in China Town , SoHo , Uptown and more!

� Play multiplayer games as Tribulation Force or the AntiChrist's Global Community Peacekeepers with up to eight players via LAN or over the internet!


Still, If there was the option to play the AntiChrist I'd buy it. Or at least torrent it.

Remember all the Christian opposition to D+D because it featured demons and devils.?
