Spiritual Gaming for the Whole Family?

Every once in a while, a special little thing comes along that really grabs your attention.

So if you’re looking for the perfect holiday gift? How about a game with a Wii controller in the shape of a cross?

Introducing: Mass – We Pray. The video game for the whole family.

Now you can forget about going to church. Take care of all those spiritual needs in the comfort of your own home.

(Note: It looks fake, but I’m not 100% sure. According to their website, you can pre-order starting today. I smell a stocking stuffer.)

Alex November 21, 2009 at 11:53 pm: @James – hadnt seen that, but figured it was probably fake

Though, i bet if it gets enough attention, a real version will soon follow. All we can do is…
Cdinsky December 31, 2009 at 5:44 pm: i actually went to their website and thought it was for real until i clicked on the pre-order button. It came up with a “You Are Dam*ed” window. Even THEN i had to click on the “Send a Friend a Spiritual Blessing.” so pwned.

Actually, the controller with spiritual beads is a kick.

Forwarding the vid to my very devout friends. They’ll love it.

PS to Alex – really appreciated your summary of Tim Ferris’ blog post. Awesome : )

Alex January 9, 2010 at 6:52 pm: @Cdinsky – thank you for checking out my site. I think they should definitely partner up with Nintendo and develop something like that for the Wii Fit.

And yes, i thought it’d be helpful for people to read a summary of the video (if they didnt feel like watching the whole thing).

Thanks again for stopping by.
