I was looking for more Christian video games, and found this write-up in Wired for a game that apparently was never released:
Imagine if kids were able to play such a disgusting, anti-Christian game!
No doubt Team Obama will release it to all public schools in 2013, if he steals the election again.
A University of Virginia graduate student is hard at work on a game that gives players a chance to "stop the spread of Christianity and Islam by murdering Abraham and the authors of the Bible, before beheading Muhammad," reports Virginia’s WSLS television news.
While the report lacks crucial details — the name of the title or its creator, for instance — it does provide a phone interview with the man explaining his motivation for tackling such a controversial subject:
Still, you can be sure we’re looking into this further, if only to see for ourselves whether or not this game is actually as inflammatory as the news report makes it out to be.

Atheists have never really had anything to speak for them like this.
It’s the general atheist premise that the world might be a better place without some of those religions… It’s the idea of being able to go back in time and sort of nipping the problem in the bud.
The game’s premise, not to mention its depiction of violence against widely revered religious figures, is guaranteed to drive intense levels of controversy. So much so that we’re tempted to believe WSLS may have missed a crucial detail (either purposefully to drive ratings, or out of neglect).It’s the general atheist premise that the world might be a better place without some of those religions… It’s the idea of being able to go back in time and sort of nipping the problem in the bud.

Waiting to unleash a revised version into American public school history classes via Obama 2.0 starting in 2013!
