    Jesus Versus Zelda

    While Game Revolution's Jesus versus Zelda fanboys is a genius idea, (the site reviewed both Twilight Princess and Eternal Forces and then collected the hate mail) it sounds like the Eternal Forces review may have been deliberately over the top.

    Still kinda interesting concept.

    In rapid succession, I posted my review of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (which I gave a B+), and then donned my Lightning Rod Hat and set out to break the world blaspheming record with my review of Left Behind: Eternal Forces (which I gave an F). I knew I was in for some serious hate mail in both cases. I received fan mail for both as well, but hate mail is what we're here for today, and a selection is, of course, provided.

    So, as I see it, only one question remains: Who has the most hardcore zealots for fans: Jesus or Zelda? Let the competition begin....

    The collection of emails they get are equally insane and rambly, though I believe, as does the site that this one takes the cake:

    And The Winner Is... Subject: Hey, Duke? From: Alex <**********@hotmail.com>

    You are a dumbass. Lets look at why you're a dumbass, shail we?

    First off, address your attention to gamerankings.com. Now, find the overall review section for Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. You see your review? The one at the bottom? The one that's even lower than the disgrace of a review written by the dick of dicks, Gerstamann? That's why you're a dumbass.

    Hey, I don't care whether you have some agenda that Twilight Princess is somehow NOT the greatest game of the year, nie on the greatest game of all time. Maybe you did the cop-out and chose to simply rate it very low to drum up a lot of traffic for your website. Or, maybe you're just completely retarded.

    You'll probably get a lot of this, and it's for a good reason: you have no right to rate a game that low when that review actually matters to said games perception on gamerankings.com. You have just joined Gerstmann on a list of people I plan to kick in their balls. I'll probably carve the triforce in your chest and the rating you gave Twilight Princess on your forehead. You'd be surprised how nimble gamers get with a scalpel after playing Trauma Center.

    If you value your life and website, let someone do a serious impartial review and not from some dickhead jaded asshole who's too busy felating his Xbox 360 for the most overrated game of the year, Gears of War. Then again, you just might be another Sony whore like many tools out there. You did buy a PS3... so that's probably proof enough right there.

    Sincerely Yours

    The Internet.

    Sorry Jesus, turns out nobody is crazier than Zelda fans. Insults, direct threats of violence and torture, vulgarity and obscene suggestions - this mail has it all. Plus it's from the entire internet.

    WINNER: ZELDA!

    So there you have it Zelda fans are more hardcore than Jesus fans. Direct all hate mail to Game Revolution.
