The Last Of Us Spoiled Me With Violence

when I'm using a shotgun and aiming at a guy's head, I want to blow it clean off, none of this blood-spurt-but-the-head-is-still-intact shit [spoiler] *cough*GTA5*cough* [/spoiler]

it should be in chunks scattered across the floor

Soldier of Fortune 1 & 2 still have the best "video game gore", imo.

The violence in TLOU was important to the game's atmosphere and tone. It was important that it be very realistic. It doesn't have to be in a game like GTA. princeofshapeir

If you aim a shotgun at a guys head at close range and shoot it, it isn't gonna be intact.

Can't wait for technology to reach the point where we can see the actual brain pieces spurting out of the guy's head.

That doesn't sound good does it?

You can see pieces of brains going out in SoF II.

Resident Evil 4 also allowed to blast heads into pieces.

But i want it in all it's high graphics glory all over the wall and floor.

Yeaaaah that wouldn't fit well with GTA at all and it'd make killing pedestrians even creepier, imagine running someone over and their head popping open when they hit the ground, it'd be too messed up. I know the old games have dismemberment but that was so cartoony that it hardly counts. Plus Rockstar already topped TLOU's level of violence with the Manhunt games and look how the ratings boards felt about that, GTA's controversial enough as it is.bobbetybob

Someday the gaming industry will have as much freedom as the movie industry...

GTA is supposed to be more toned down in that regard. TLOU needed that violence to sell how hopeless and cruel the world was, I don't think watching limbs fly off as I drive into people at speed would be very nice

Don't forget wiping away the blood spashes on the wind screen like in Quarantine. ;)

I enjoy me some gore on occasion. It's cathartic. Not every game needs a lot of realism though. For isntance, Max Payne 3 seemed pretty authentic... I ocne saw a dead dude keep running for about ten seconds before he went headfirst into a wall.

But you're both talking about hitting random pedestrians.

Max Payne 3 type of violence would've been nice too.

yeah oddly enough this is one of the things bugging me the most about gta.  Even when you stab someone the gore isn't really there.  It really feels weird when you're playing a psychopath like trevor and buckets of blood aren't spilling, maybe in the PC version.
