Mass We Pray - Church Video Game???

[friexxen]

It came to my attention today that a company called "Prayer Works Interactive" is working on a church related game titled "Mass We Pray".

I'm leaning in the direction that this game is simply just a joke (I sure hope it is). The whole concept is just... well, it pushes the envelope of stupidity right over the edge. I really hope this is fake but quotes from the trailer such as "Now you can go to church everyday without leaving your home" or "The more you play, the more grace points you collect" send a shiver down my spine of this gamer.

Supposedly the game is available for pre-order November 20th on thier website. Maybe then we'll get confirmation if this is fake or not.

Ah damnit. I scrolled through a few pages and didn't see a thread about it.

Anyway, have you got a link to a source that confirm it's fake? I've looked but can't find anything to confirm it.

Bah. Neo-nazis play nazi games, women-beaters play women-beating games, why can't bible thumpers play bible games?

But theres no gameplay to prayer, so im not surprised its been called fake.

For the joke incapable: "wii play" > "we pray"

the wii mote is a crucifix

How fitting.

Trying to be a flame-inducing douche, are we?

How can you have a link that confirms the non-existance of something? I can tell you that you wont find a website for the company, nor can you find it listed in the phone book for Boston. Where supposedly the company exists.

You got me there. Let me rephrase that into asking for some more evidence that it's a fake. I'm not somebody who points fingers inless I know for sure.

Anyway, I did come across this quote on

"Further digging provides little evidence that Prayer Works actually exists and reveals that masswepray.com was just registered by Portuguese company Domain Discreet on November 3, 2009."

Little evidence as it may be, it does spark some curiousity

No, but thanks for your concern. If anything, implying that I'm a douche is flame-inducing. Hypocrisy in a religious thread? How fitting.

Have a sense of humor.

No, he's right, you're flaming, and if you flame, there's a very strong chance you're a douche, so I'd say he was just playing the odds.

OT - These things already exist, which is why I'm not so sure this is a hoax. We Pray is actually quite tame compared to the linkes of Guitar Praise and Captain Bible in the Dome of Darkness. Every Christian game out there is, frankly, really funny - and that's coming from a Christian. I'll have to dig it out again, but somewhere there's a Doom mod where you smite down demons with different prayers that actually looks more offensive to moderate Christians that Doom ever was and is also fucking hilarious.

Yep.. You can't prove a negative.

Unless you can show all possible alternatives simultaneously. But since i can't send an infinite number of links, and you can't prove i sent them all to you, then basically yeah.

Exactly, a company gets started, buys studios, gear, and employees without registering a business to the federal government. (which i might add is probably illegal). They run in the dark for two years before creating a website and advertising a month before launch by sending emails to the editorial staffs of various new sites like the Escapist. Whom i might add are not their primary demographic.

Either these people are so far beyond "fucking stupid" that they register on an entirely new graph of stupid which we will name after them. Or they're just a couple guys with 3DS Max, making a joke.

It's a joke, go to the website and spend 5 minutes looking at stuff and it becomes clear as day.

My comment was drenched in sarcasm. Sorry, I forget about the limitations of the internet sometimes.
