Time for Jesus Inc.: Christian offerings go mainstream
The Boston Herald, USA


The Christian video game industry has a heavy cross to bear.

A small customer base, even smaller development budgets and competition from a mainstream market that sells violent games by the truckload has traditionally meant spiritual gaming barely registered a blip on the national radar.

But a growing mainstream fascination with divine entertainment has a variety of companies hoping to cash in big on Christian video games.

``Right now the . . . industry is just ready to explode,'' said Ralph Bagley, chief spokesman for the Christian Game Developers Association and often called the ``Godfather'' of Christian video games.

Christian game developers will flood the market in coming months with new products that offer a godly alternative to the blood and gore games prevalent in the marketplace.

2. "Billy Graham's Bible Blaster"

"No, you just winged him. Now he's a Unitarian!"

4. Hmmmmmm I wonder if fundie kids

are the ones really into the blood and kill video games. I mean with all the bloodlust of their parents it would only be natural. Sounds like these Xian game developers are just another in the long line of opportunists wanting to stick their snouts in the trough.

5. What if you were caught in Fred Phelp's dungeon

and the only way out was to kill his zombie minions. Wait, I don't think they would go for that unless of course they were very liberal Xians, perhaps.
