I think Christian video games can be very good, it’s just a matter of time. There’s allot of young people who feel that Christian video games do not have enough violence, but the Bible is full of violent story’s. Take for example the many bloody battles that the Israelites had to face just to get to their promised land, with the amorites, hittites, and so forth, or the battle of jericho, or the time Samson had to kill one thousand philistines. To take away blood shed from christian games would be like taking away the life, breath, and history of the stories themselves. The Bible is based on blood shed, especially the blood of Jesus Christ, as it says in Hebrews 9:20-22.
