As a Christian I am generally wary of video games, especially RPGS/MMOS since there is a lot of anti-Christian messages to them!
Yet I have found one that is good for all Christians to play!: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/
The game is called "Diablo III" and in it, you play as a warrior with powers who fights evil demons and monsters!
It is a metaphor really, for what Christians are called to do in this life: be a "Warrior" and call on God's power to fight demons, in whatever form they may be.
True they aren't as apparent as they are IRL as they are in the game, but tehy exist, and IMO, this game reminds us of how vigilant we should really be!
You do know that Blizzard Entertainment's success rides on their creation, Worlds of Warcraft, don't you? WOW has been called anti-Christian by many loonies. You also know that Diablo is Spanish for "devil", right? Be careful, dem demons are gonna possess you if you play!

Wasn't there this one where you have to fight lions in an arena? Or did I imagine that?

Not sure, if joking, Poe or troll. This isn't meant to be a christian game, just a game and certainly not an RPG, since it's all about hack and slash.

Diablo III is far too fucking awesome a game for it to be a Christian game.

THIS is what christian video games look like:
LOL - Xtians can't do anything right. Christian rock - sucks d*ck. Christian hip-hop - sucks an even bigger d*ck. Christian movies - deep-throat d*ck. And christian video games - well, that's an equivalent of a**-to-mouth.

Seriously, guys, Poe.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
