CAIRO — An influential Islamic group branded an online video game depicting religious figures fighting each other as offensive to Muslims and Christians and successfully demanded Tuesday that it be taken offline.
In the game "Faith Fighter," caricatures of Jesus, the Prophet Muhammad, Buddha, God and the Hindu god Ganesh fight each other against a backdrop of burning buildings.
God attacks with bolts of lighting and pillars of fire while the turbaned Muhammad can summon a burning black meteorite.
The Saudi-based Organization of the Islamic Conference, which represents most Muslim nations, said it should be removed from the Internet.
"The computer game was incendiary in its content and offensive to Muslims and Christians. ... The game would serve no other purpose than to incite intolerance," an OIC statement said.
Game designer Molleindustria told the Associated Press the game, which had been around for more than a year and played millions of times, was misunderstood, but had been removed.
"This was meant to be a game against intolerance and against the one-way Islamophobic satire of the Danish Muhammad cartoons," Molleindustria said in an e-mail message. "So if a respectable organization didn't understand the irony and the message, we failed."
Islamic law generally opposes physical depictions of the prophet.
When a Danish newspaper in 2005 printed 12 cartoons showing negative portrayals of Muhammad, Muslims around the world were enraged.
Deadly protests erupted from Morocco to Indonesia, with rioters torching Danish and other Western diplomatic missions. Some Muslim countries boycotted Danish products.
The style of the game, with characters jumping, kicking and knocking each other out, mimics the martial-arts arcade games popular in the 1980s and 1990s.

I just played it and had Jesus whoop Muhammed’s butt.
The Flying Spaghetti Monster hovering in the background was a nice touch! LOL!
i’m alright with it, if only God gets the God-mode cheat.
He definitely should!
Even a moron or one that cannot read can understand a cartoon..
Even the brain wash that most all muslims go through in their youth is eclipsed..
CARTOONS are pictures of ten thousand words.. or more..
Political religious and cultural PORN...
Muslims HATE THAT..
Oh, there are many possibilities here. Moses could also call down swarms of locusts, rivers of blood, flaming hailstones - good stuff.
Maybe they'll plug that character into the game and delete Mad Mo, thereby alleviating the Muslims' concerns.
Yeah - just treat Mohammed as though he is nonexistent... irrelevant. Surely the mooselimbs wouldn't mind *that*. < rolls eyes >
THANKS!!!!
IM CRACKIN UP!
Gotta have it!
Thanks for posting that site. Never knew I could get bacon laced ammo ... LOVE IT :)
“The game would serve no other purpose than to incite intolerance. . . .”
No place for just plain fun in the Islamic world, I guess. Probably why the Taliban forbids music too. I wonder if they prohibit hot bubble baths as well?
What our military really needs is the S (Slamnation) bomb which would amount to compressed air and flash-dried pork ground 1000 times finer than the flash powder used for flintlock rifles i.e. something which would ensure that nobody in a 100 mile radius could take a breath of air without having pork in their bodies.

Does it have to be one or the other? Why not both?
Mohammad: Yes.
Jesus: Do you kill children and innocents?
Jesus: No.
Game over.
thanks for the link! My original reply was understandably deleted. I apologize to the mods - I’m just tired of these people getting offended over everything on earth.
Muslims HATE THAT..
