wow, not surprising though, considering the west does have the most violent culture on earth.

It’s no more strange hearing things like that. In my country,there is the case of a lady releasing a song in which she was praising the devil using gospel soundtracks and many people are listening to it. We have to pray that God should continue to strengthen our faith and to give us the grace to hold on till the last.

Nocturne? As in Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne? Um, hate to burst your bubble John but as a JRPG fanboy, I just looked up the game on GameFAQs and hardly found anything close to what your site is claiming. The nearest hit they had was where you had to fight three boss monsters named Uriel, Raphael, and Gabriel. Knowing the Japanese though, they’re the loosest when it comes to naming things after Christian figures. Also, you don’t play as a demon. 
I might have to be wary of the Shadow Hearts series now though but I can’t help this feeling that the “God” there sounds less like a being and more like some big space battleship. :ehh:
As far as Dante’s Inferno is concerned however, I just gotta laugh. Have you actually visited the official website of the game? It’s actually quite awesome. Did you know that if you watched a few gameplay clips, you get to choose between condemning souls (you punish them with your scythe) and absolving them (you use the light of some holy cross to “cleanse” them)? I even saw one where Dante (the game’s main character) uses the latter on those “unbaptized infants” the game’s protesters were railing about.
So with that said, I’m willing to give this game a chance. What’s even better is that they’re releasing it for the PSP! Wahoo!! XD
Secondly, I have to say: What is wrong if a majority of RPGs are rated T or M?
If you want a game for kids, buy one with Ben Ten or Dora the Explorer in it. Honestly, when I was a kid, I never played RPGs because my gaming style didn’t involve anything beyond walking, jumping, beating bad guys, and collecting shinies (e.g. Spyro the Dragon and Crash Bandicoot). It was only till I got older that I realized games weren’t limited to such a simple-minded approach and started appreciating RPGs (thank Final Fantasy VIII for that one XD).
I don’t want my RPGs sugar-coated, I want 'em to entertain me in a manner fit for my age and nothing less thank you. 
P.S.
My only beef with Guitar Hero: What Jharek said.
Honestly folks, buying an original PS2 game for my console was bank-breaking enough. T_T
What’s their deal with pentagrams though? :ehh: I play Yu-Gi-Oh! on my PSP and I see them all the time. The only monsters I see are the ones I’m blasting on the screen (with 95% of them not even moving >_>;; ).

My point exactly. People who bash JRPGs in the manner described in the OPs link are always so ignorant about that to the point that it’s kinda sad. >:\
Furthermore, I’ve seen other games that are positive and can even be interpreted as having Christian undertones. (Examples: Kingdom Hearts, Jeanne D’Arc, Atelier Iris 2 are some of the ones I had played)
Well I’m more in between myself.
RPGs for the stories. Action games when I’m in a really bad mood and (in the words of Jack Sparrow) “want to shoot something”. XD
Tell me about it. What’s more embarrassing is that this looks like a Catholic source now. Usually it’s just the fundamentalists who go crazy over things like this. -.-;;
I’m just as surprised as you are with GTA though. I personally just loathe the game. If you’ve seen just how idiotically people play it over here, you’d think there was no story behind it. Then again, is there?
(Btw, this is coming from someone who actually likes to indulge in video game violence.
Just not the blatantly mindless variety as I’ve come to associate with GTA. )
