Shambolic on 19 October 2007
I do get tired of the one-upmanship that seems to exist between game developers when it comes to things like violence. Creating the goriest game seems to be the major marketing point rather than creating anything of substance.
Sure there's a market for it so of course these games will be made and some of them are very good, I'd just like to see some diversity between shooters.
It's not that I don't like seeing gore, but people are so de-sensitised to it anyway. And the most disturbing scenes in films that I've seen usually are not the goriest, if video game makers want to have that effect on people they should take a look at what films do.
