im basically looking for what people think about this game.  so if any christian gamers are here wanna give their opinion on it, that would be cool.  

oh yea, if you are a parent and have thought about letting your child play this game, dont.  18 and up only.

for those of you that dont know what this game is, its the "third" version of a classic game.  i use quotes because there hvae been more than three.  

heres the basic story.  you are a marine assigned to a research lab on mars.  it is run by a corporation called UAC.  strange things have been going on there and you are sent in as extra help.  the facility is doing ground breaking research, and something goes wrong which basically opens up a portal to hell.  pretty much everyone on the base is dead instantly, you survive and then have to battle through hell, literally, to close the gate and save the day.  

its very scary, dark, has plenty of occult symbols (pentagrams etc) and massive amounts of gore.  

i suggest only people strong of mind and able to see this just as a video game play it, because it is very dark.  ive played through the whole game, i enjoyed it.  its got a great story, awesome graphics, and great sound.  

lots of christians ive talked to about this game refuse to play it and see it as evil and such, im just wondering about what people here think.  

personally, i dont find symbols and the such hurtful to me.  im stronger than that.  

what do you all think?  Smiley

No Jester, God is stronger than that.

I do agree with most of what you said.  Symbols don't bother me either. My children are fully aware of most pagen symbols and what they mean. I allow my older one to play games that many would find very offensive. Their faith is strong and they know what is real  and what is not.

I know this is not for everyone.

yeah, i posted this in the wrong place, my bad, i saw gen discussion and woops, it was too late.  lol.

but yea, its not for everyone.  now, i dont personally agree that this game is evil, it is in fact, just a game, yes there are many symbols that people would find offensive, for example right at the end, there are people nailed to an upside down cross, now yea, i can see why thats offensive, but if you play through the game you see it in context as defining that you are about to face off against a great evil.  it adds the suspence and danger factor.  

i dont see it as evil, i see it as a game.  but thats me.  

everyone is entitled to their opinion.  

GOD IS AWESOME! Grin
