While we're on the subject, what viking games are their? Literally my favorite mythology. Admittedly, if for some unforseen reason I had to become a different religion, I'd become norse. Then, I have a reason for going down in a hail of gunfire.

I'm a Christian, but my ancestors were all Nordic and I think it's a really cool culture. Them vikings were tough.

Viking or Norse mythology themed games? Now that I think of it, Valkyrie Profile 1 and 2 are the only games I know of that do the mythology justice. Although it deviates wildly from the source material, it's really very good. You need to play them both anyway so get to it! Odin Sphere ostensibly has something to do with it but most of it is made up using only Viking movies and fantasy novels as indirect sources. Awesome game again but it won't scratch your mythology itch. There are also some viking Dynasty Warriors ripoffs that aren't very good.

Well, I still need a translation of Snorri's stuff, but while we're at it viking-themed games are welcome!

It doesn't neccessarily have to be close to the mythology, just "viking" feeling. I guess barbarian could fit into that too.

I'm Christian. But remember, the most feared and viscous vikings were Christian. I was joking of course, just to be sure. I may or may not have Norse ancestors, because we have North German/Some Dutch. We also have Irish, witch could be to an extent.
