And you will know them by...

their horrible video games.

“Left Behind: Eternal Forces,” which debuts today at the expo, features plenty of biblical smiting, albeit with high-tech weaponry as players battle the forces of the Antichrist in a smoldering world approaching Armageddon.

The player's choices prompt intervention by angelic forces or unleash demons who feast on the faithful. As players progress through the increasingly difficult levels, they see Scripture passages presented as secret scrolls and hear inspirational music.

In multiplayer games, participants can choose to command the Antichrist's forces.

...their keen ability to exploit the culture's obsession with violence by marketing a money making scheme that is centered around shoddy biblical interpretation? *hopeful, blinking, student-like eyes* heh-I just now noticed that you answered your title in the first line. I simply jumped to the story. Heh.
