        Shit like this really pisses me off.

        Look i’m a catholic and i believe in God and all that, but come on man, bitching about moaning about a game that Includes satan, fuck that. It’s entertainment.
        If they want to ban this game they they need to ban every other game, movie, song and book that talks about the devil and includes acts of evil such as Murder.
        Thou Shalt not kill is one of the 10 commandments, so why don’t they get every single action movie ever made banned. Whether it be a good guy or a bad guy killing someone, it goes against the teachings of God. Therefore it is a sin an act of evil.

        People need to get a grip and realise that the world won’t ever be a peaceful place and there will always be evil in it, whether it is in the name of religion or not.

        We need good entertainment dammit.
        I think it’s evil for these people trying to stop us being entertained. Fuck them!!!

            Not only did I not see them outside but I don’t remember seeing Dante’s Inferno in the convention center (I was too busy playing Madden 10 at the EA booth). There are soooo many videogames that have mention or show imagery that is demonic in nature. They need to be protesting Guitar Hero, Devil May Cry, and all those other games as well. Its hard to take people seriously who haven’t really vested time in educating themselves thoroughly on a topic.

              I like how his answer to every question is, “I don’t know.” I agree with space and i think this has been an issue with the majority of “old people” protestor groups no matter the object of their protest (rap music, TV shows, etc.) In general these ppl jus have no clue what the subject matter is really about nor do they understand the virtue of artistic expression and representation. I guess the bottom line is the only people taking these things seriously are the protestors. Get a life losers or start working on an Easter Egg hunt game for the Wii.

                I wonder if they would play a Jesus videogame? Not to sound like a joke in God’s name but they would probably protest that too.

                      Well it got us talking about it so I guess it works. I still think that was lame though.

                            Something about that one guy in the interview seemed like it was staged but I believed it anyways

                                  This kind of reminds me when Kevin Smith protested Dogma

                                  War.
