If this were just a joke, it would be one thing, but it isn't. This game deliberately takes a major story from the Bible and corrupts it. If it were attacking a minority (other than Jews apparently), it would get lambasted, but because it attacks Christians and Jews, people laugh it off and say it's no big deal. I don't like political correctness either, but there's a difference between joking around and attacking a group.

So? They're free to do so. What difference will your offending make? People get attacked all the time through comedy.

The Bible does the same thing when it comes to Pagans.

The bible is already corrupted by man. (Simple comparison the earliest known examples of it with what is in it today).

The sermon of the mount was ripped off something that was done much earlier. (I suppose there is the possibility Jesus read the story and decided to actualise it).

This guy seems to think even that original story was changed.

I'd buy The Binding of Isaac on 3DS for the portability factor, it was fun and the story was actually well done.

I wouldn't call BoI a comedy. Besides, even in comedies, there's a line between joking and attacking. If BoI was a joke, it would be like a "your mom" joke making fun of a terminal disease your mom had. It takes a serious situation, twists and distorts it, and says "it was just a joke!" It would be completely reasonable to be upset by such a "joke", even if you could try to ignore it. As for what taking offense will do, it probably won't do anything, but it might keep the offensive material from getting somewhere (the eshop in BoI's case), and it might make others realize just how offensive the material is.

I am the TrueWiiMaster! Those who call the Wii casual BEWARE!

You aren't alone. I feel the exact same way... People laugh at things that make fun of Christians/Jews, yet the whole world gets in an uproar if someone does something that offends other religions.

I hope it does come out. First of all, it's a game. Give people a choice and warning before they play it. Similar to the airport level in one of those Call of Duty titles where you can kill civilians. Give people the choice to buy it. If it offends you, don't support the developer. The game is genuinely fun, let the people that want to play it on their portable device play it, instead of calling for it to never be released because it offends you personally.

Yeah I find the game horribly unfunny in its offensiveness, but it can exist and was seemingly made by smart human beings so whatever.

@Operative,

It can come to the 3ds but if it does then I expect to see noak's ark 3d - snes & the bible game - gba on the virtual console for either 3ds or wii u. Also I have zero intension on ever supporting that game for the meer fact it mock's the bible. You can have your occulttic game that mocks the bible but I expect to see two virtual console releases if they truly put that garbage on the 3ds.

Super Noah's Ark - SNES
The Bible Game - GBA

Happy Gaming! (^_^)

Nobody owes you parity. Make your own damned game that promotes your ideas and get it put on the eShop.

I want this game BAD, by the way.

Lets use some forms of common sense both those games would be a licencing nightmare to get on the VC with practically no interest and neither the SNES or GBA are currently even supported platforms for the 3DS VC..

Not to mention that at least one of these games was a bad knockoff that was sold illegally with no license from Nintendo at all.

@Jazzer94

Quite frankly i don't care how big a licensing issue is. If they put Binding of Issac (trash) on 3ds then they can put bible game- gba & super noah's ark -snes on 3ds as well.

Nintendo has put christian games on there consoles/handhelds in the past. What would be the big deal now? What nintendo is ok with letting games on 3ds with demon's in them like demon king box but not christian games?!

@Stu13

I never said anyone owed me anything. Look I have just as much right to defend my faith & religion just the same as anyone else on here. So back off.

Happy Gaming! (>_<)
