Halo 3 in church? Too violent to be consistent with Jesus’ teachings (also, Aliens don’t exist, f.y.i.). But Nintendo Wii in a church? Now we’re on to something. Ever the progressives, the Mission Bay Community Church has tried something a tad bit clever to promote their upcoming Easter Sunday service: leveraging the popularity of Nintendo’s […]
Let it never be said that Activision, the publishers of Guitar Hero, hates money. Sure, every company loves money and works to get the largest amount of it possible, but who amongst us could have truly foreseen this: Guitar Hero: On Tour for the Nintendo DS.
