How did the Gamecube miss this killer ap?

[UncleBob]

Because GameCube is tehkiddah and this game is Matchure 2-da XXXtreme!

[King of Twitch]

IF they were to put the book on the DS, with various translation versions and a concordance, that would be a good deal.

[Infernal Monkey]

Pfft, no pegging apples at various animals until they fall over on the hard wooden floor and never get back up again? It's no Super Noah's Ark 3D!

Announcer: "Alright Kids, this one is from the Old Testament!  When invading a country, what do you do with the babies after you slaughter their parents?
A: Raise them as your own.
B. Turn them into slaves.
C. Teach them the True Religion
or D. Grab them by the ankles and dash them against rocks."

Jenny:  "D!"  

Announcer:  "Correct!  You get two points!  Next Category: How to sell your brother into slavery!"

When I was young I had bible teachings at home with a nice Jehovah's Witness lady.

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...

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)!

[Dasmos]

Destroying other villages makes them believe.....that was my method anyway..

LET...THERE...BE...LIGHT!

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.

[Avinash_Tyagi]

Slavery, rape and Murder...all in a days fun when you play the Bible game...buy it now or face the eternal fires of dammnation, you infidel heathens!

Remember, you're killing them to save their souls.

...please tell me you're kidding!  

[Deguello]

Ben is most certainly not kidding.  I played it with him and he is very much telling the truth here.

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.

I think this is an appropriate place for something about Jack Thompson,.

[Kairon]

Well darn, I don't need anyone selling me my scriptures, I just want a no-nonsense way to enjoy the most shoplifted book in existence!
