From demon worshipping to alien conspiracies to leaders turning their followers into zombies, religions in games are a scary thing. But what are the memorable, or craziest, or most corrupt ones? Gamesradar have listed the Top 7 Religions In Gaming. Go to the source for the full list.

Religion. In real life, it’s all kneeling, self-reflection and guilt. In games, it’s all alien conspiracies, demon worship and craftily put together cults designed to rob us of our readies. The following faiths might all be deceitful, money-grabbing or just downright homicidal, but at least they’re exciting. And hell, adopt a positive attitude, take everything they say at face value and follow their orders blindly, and we might even make it through one of their sermons with all our limbs. Hallelujah!

    I'm quite happy to see a mention of St.Eva Church!

    That Epsilon site gives me the creeps.

    St. Eva should have been number one.

    wtf?! Yevon was a major factor in FFX's plot, and probably the #1 religion in any game I vividly remember...

      I'm surprised Yevon isn't up there too...

      Another one that comes to mind is the Church of Martel in Tales of Symphonia, but maybe that's just me trying to drop in oh so subtle Tales references.

    Unitology's pretty hardcore. To embrace a necromorph with open arms takes cojones.
