The disappointment!
Damn. BoingBoing had a story about the Left Behind video game, all but implying that the game had been released. No such luck. It still sounds as awful as it did in March, but they’re still promising a release date of late 2006.
What a let down. But there is an interesting fear piece on an anti-religious right website. It doesn’t say much about the game, other than intimating that it’s the role of the player to convert or kill non-Christians (including Catholics and those wussy mainstream Christians).
Of course, when pressed, the author of the article kinda mumbles about it being a Left Behind game, so of course there’s going to be bigotry, etc. Which is funny, because the original BoingBoing story made the bigotry sound like the most interesting portion of the game. It’s easy to see how the National Post can make those silly mistakes.
