I wouldn't mind seeing a game where you dig into the events of the Pentapolis.
In Act I, you start out as a slave in northern mesopotamia, who gets sold over to the Pentapolis cities, but on the way there, you break out of your slavery, and end up as a soldier in the ranks of the Pentapolis cities.
In Act II, you'd fight in the battles of the Vale of Siddim, and generally muck about in Sodom and Gomorrah, doing all sorts of morally questionable deeds. When in Rome..
Act III would all boil down to god destroying the two notorious cities, and you have to escape the fire and brimstone that are raining from the sky.
I dunno. Some of my bible facts may be totally incorrect aswell.

fuck yes, seriously, go read the bible, that shit is br00tal, all we need is a deicide soundtrack and we've got the next greatest thing in video games.
As long as your A. Not shoving rhetorhic or B.Evangelishing to me then fine a game based around christian mythos would be cool we see plenty of greek/roman mythos based games. Only if I am not getting a speech on morality, how we are all going to hell, how we need to be saved blah, blah.
Revelations could be a pretty cool setting for a game if not a massive mindfuck.

If the game is 'fun' then of course. I'm an athiest and I love the story's of the bible, I don't know how it could work as a game but it would be interesting to see.
When I say fun I mean good game play with depth, the game should at least try to be original in some way.

I played that Noah's Arc game AVGN mentioned, and believe it or not, I had fun with it.
Yeah, you want to kick it up a notch and make a totally awesome Bible game? Thing is, you gotta balance awesome with the craziness that is the Christian religion. (The funny thing about those mythologies you mentioned is that they're mythologies, not religion. XD I know there's a fine line there, being that mythology once *was* religion, but fortunately for Game Companies, you can do what you want without getting in trouble with anyone.)

I'd love to see it, but religous people would go crazy because of it. And it would probably get banned in almost every country, the bible has stories that are 100x worse than the sickest we have in games today. But I would love to play it. and its a perfect excuse, "No mommy, I'm just learning the bible!"(hypothetically)
no. just no. no no no. never. a long beard is enough for me. call of duty is set in the east does that count?
