Any suggestions should consider what goes in the eye and so it is kind of like a Biblical discussion.

What video game would make it past the Bible?

Religion was a very large part of the Zenosaga trilogy (hopefully it won't STAY a trilogy if ya catch my drift), Devil May Cry could be considered "Christian" as you're slicing up demons, Halo tried to get into religion but it wasn't anything spectacular... If I think of any more, I will post

Final Fantasy Crystal Defenders. It's on my iTouch and it's a fun tower defense game. I play it often when I am out and bored.

Armored Core For Answer is just giant mechs with blowing stuff up with massive customization . I likes it.

If you could create a video game or give an idea for a video game, what would it be?:)

Okay.

Any particular reason why over the others? Just wondering what makes a video game good for playing that computer programmers would create more "christian" games.

Still yet to hear from the reproving camp ( if there be any) on the games mentioned.

Well, from the female camp then. What would be a good video game to play?

Guys cannot really imagine for the girls.

Example by what I would imagine:

A game called "The Thrifty Shopper". It's Black Friday and there are 12 items on the list you have to have. Plus one get "discounts" for buying impromptu great gifts ideas. The more people you buy for, the more your popularity charity giving scores. Every now and then, you will come across the last item on sale and you and another shopper spotted it at the same time. You both take off to grab it. Will one trips the other into getting that item? Will one shove the person out of the path to get the desired prize? Will they do a flying leap in the air to snatch the item like a fumbled football and risk getting hurt? Will they tackle the opponent and wrestle the item from her in getting the desired prize? Will the shopper after buying the purchased item stalk the winner of the desired item outside in the parking lot in the bonus round to achieve more points in the game before quitting altogether? Stay tune ......

Yeah... probably would fail as an idea for a christian game.:p

What would be an idea that ladies would love to play? Or is there a game out there that ladies like playing and if so, could it be considered a good christian game?

My thread got moved before we could get into the Biblical analysis of the games mentioned. Oh well.

How would you rate the game as a christian game by the Biblical standard?

Would Jesus play it?

Or would you just call it a good video game?

What do you think of Xenosaga and its comparison to Final Fantasy?

How do they both qualify as a good christian game?

Or are they just considered good video games to play?

I used to play a game called "Spiritual Warfare"

You had to obtain all of the Spiritual Armor, and fruits of the Spirit helped with various stats... 'twas a fun game for the original Nintendo system... I don't remember it too well, though
