Players can use the CROSS controller to play one of 24 mini-games including Sign of the Cross, Holy Water Sprinkle and Holy Communion. The game also ships with the KNEELER accessory -- similar to the Wii Fit Board -- which simulates the real-life fun of kneeling prayers. Since violent videogames are the cause of so many problems in society, Prayer Works Interactive reassures families that they, "shouldn't be scared of videogames," adding, "just like television and radio before that, it's not the medium that's dangerous; it's how you use it." Mass: We Play is said to be scheduled for an Easter 2010 release, and pre-orders will be made available November 20th.
Tyler says: Okay, so if you can't tell by now, this product is obviously fake. In fact, if I saw this on Adult Swim I'd swear it was a Cinco Product. So no, I don't actually think violent videogames "cause" any problems in society today, and no, I don't think kneeling is actually fun.
But I do love a comedic skit now and then, especially ones that involve my favorite subject: videogames. But I do wonder if this is some backdoor viral ad campaign. Maybe this is the most recent Dante's Inferno PR stunt? Is comedy a deadly sin?
