2000 · TV series · 22 min episodes · 1 season

God strikes a wager with the Devil: if just one person can convince him that the world is worth saving, he'll spare humanity from destruction, if not, God will scrap all of creation and start over. The Devil is allowed to choose the candidate, and true to form, he picks the least likely person to determine the fate of the world--self-centered, slow-witted Detroit autoworker Bob Alman, an icon of mediocrity. Reluctantly, Bob accepts God's challenge, and has to live a decent life with no hints from God and constant temptation from the Devil. Caught between the forces of divinity and deviance, with the weight of the world on his shoulders, there's nothing left to do but laugh.

    So, that's a no, you didn't actually play/review the game itself. Also, is the character making first attacks against others, or vice-versa?

    I've seen many attempts to shut down TV shows, games, and any number of things from both sides of the political isle. From "God, The Devil and Bob" which was a really funny show, shut down by religious zealots who protested the show without ever seeing it, to this.

    I cannot access the game's site from work, so I cannot give feedback. And when asked for specific feedback, you spew out a bunch of third party references that aren't even part of the game.

    In the end, even if the allegations are true, making noise only feeds the beast, so to speak. And all I'm seeing is a bunch of echo-chamber bullshit. I don't care if it's the left trying to shut down anything they disagree with, or the right. It's fucking bullshit to parrot a bunch of crap without any personal critical thought.

    I may be down-voted to oblivion on this. I am against censorship in general. By shutting down any chance at conversation, there's no way to learn. Pretending shit didn't happen does nothing for preventing it from happening again.
