![]() So...
About a year ago, there was a small debate raging about a certain game that had certain religious overtones in it; certain people expressed their strong dislike for this game b/c of its religious nature. Having noted several games that possessed religious overtones, I decided to start this thread in order to: A. Give a list of games I've either heard of or played that had religious overtones (slight or heavy [and none Christian in nature]) B. For anyone else who may have an interest in either discussing this very interesting concept of religious gaming or posting a list of that particular genre of game(s) or both. Ok here is my list... 1. Prince of Persia series 2. Might and Magic series 3. Simon the Sorcerer series 4. Ico 5. Shenmue series 6. Nirvana 7. Myst So why these games? Well... Ico and P of P go hand in hand b/c both games teach Zoroastrianism Might and Magic and Simon the Sorcer series teach witchcraft Shenmue teaches Chinese (or was it Japenese?) religious traditions Nirvana and Myst teach Hinduism (or was it Buddhism?) That's my list--what's yours (if you got one)? There's more I could have listed but I just decided to start with those seven; I'm going to be gone for about a day just so you know just in case you wanted to reply directly to my post. I will read it when I get back on-line and let you know what I think. Thanks (and I hope you have some fun with this one!) ~ JD |
