The rise of Christian games developers

Video games are generally free from religious agendas. But that may be about the change. This Gamespot report looks at the growing number of Christian developers. If there's such a thing as Christian rock music or even Christian heavy metal, it's not surprising that Christian games exist and will become more prominent. But is that a good thing? We'll just have to wait and see.

It must be thousands of times a day that holy warriors use the combined forces of prayer and giant hammers to bring the hurt to the forces of evil--but while most gamers are only interested in smiting the devil to get that coveted suit of rare armor, a growing sector of the games industry is taking it a bit further. These new Christian gaming studios are taking the religious undertones of games like Diablo II and bringing them to the forefront of the gaming experience.
