Like a Muslim game letting you play as Mohammed conquering the Middle East, or a Zen Buddhist game that asks you a bunch of goofy questions, then gives you the blue screen of death when you pick an answer. Or a Hindu game, with an instruction book 1200 pages long, and a tutorial that takes about 10 hours to get through. And then when you get to the actual game, you have to just sit there and not do anything or the game immediately ends with Kali eating you.
(No offense intended against the varieties of God-theory mentioned above. Like the makers of Assassin's Creed, my existentialism makes me think everybody is stupid but conceal that truth under a blurb of vague legalese. Cuz daddy gets more $$ that way.)
If a game is going to try to preach to me about some religion or the other, it may as well be straight up and honest about it. Nothing more despicable than a game trying to hide a subtext of converting people.
