Mind you, I'm non-denominational Judeo-Christian, but I feel proud that I actually have some knowledge of the old testament!
So in some twisted way... I want this game...

Haha, the PS2 version of this game was hilarious at E3. I loved how you got to throw stones at sinners as one of the minigames.

Oh, I played that already in Black & White. If there was a town of nonbelievers, I killed them all, man, woman and child, and repopulated the town with those of the proper faith. It said I was an evil God but I wasn't evil towards my people, just those that attempt resistance (funny, my pet was the epitome of goodness)!
Remember, you're killing them to save their souls.

Every minigame started with a Game-show style announcer going "LET! THERE! BE! LIGHT!" as a form of countdown. And it was hard to play after rolling around on the show floor laughing.
