Unless you have an economics degree and are fairly educated and intelligent you won't be getting far with this:

Gangans

On the contrary, no economics but I do enjoy a game of Hearts of Iron here and there! Sociology and Political Sci FTW!

and that game looks almost identical! :o

Not even close. No offense but Silent Hill 2 was one of the most brutal games I have ever played and many of it's deranged elements blended together in a disgusting and offensive way. What was more is that the game had an amazing story and a disgusting and hoorifying way of telling it.....seeing Maria geting speared on that upside down crucifix thing still haunts me lolSiiSsy

The subject matter is just, if not moreso, "mature."

If you're commenting on visuals and and blending mechanics, then that's different.

The undertones the game carries are expressed through poetry, graffiti, letters, street names, etc etc.

Very much the kind of game you would expect Poe to write if he was tripping on meth.

I think what makes Silent Hill 2 the most mature to me is that it's subtly disturbing, and dare I say, beautiful at times. Horrifically beautiful. I won't deny that The Suffering has many of the same elements, but it's not quite as personal and real as Silent Hill 2, if that makes sense. Many people chose Shadow of the Colossus because of how much emotion was portrayed through it (also an amazing choice, I might add), and I feel Silent Hill 2 gives off the same emotion. It's quite a crippling game to go through if you let yourself become absorbed in it.

[QUOTE="munu9"]Possibly "The suffering"? Meh, I don't know...jetthrovegas

Ties that Bind dealt with some pretty dark social issues... I may agree...

God that game was confusing, and I still cant tell if the main character is black or white.

agree with TC, Killer 7. That game is really not meant too be played by kids.. Got everything that could be classified as mature.. Even a storyline that no 12-ear old would even be close too understand.. Also,I would say Myst is a very mature game.. Not many below 20 that would actully bother with that game for more then 20 minutes..

And too all.. A violence doesn't equal maturity.. Ffs... anyone stating GTA or postal are mature games is most likely a retard those games are as far from mature as possible, shooting thing for fun is not mature.. lol...

Postal and Postal 2. There was a man in a weiner costume named crotchy who is the mascot for a children's amusement park, and the point of the game is to either wait in line for fifteen minutes to cash a check (or other tedious things) or go postal and kill everyone, by decapitation or any other gruesome means.

Juggernaut140

you get to kill gary colman with scissors if you want. i mean, common.

or you can shoot kittens out of a shotgun. postal gets my vote.

Killer 7 is a good choice. Another truly mature game was Fahrenheit / Indigo Prophecy.

Don't. It sucks.

Yes, the story was excellent. A real mind-twister. But without cohesive and good gameplay, there is no motivation to actually carry on playing the game.

Unless it's ten bucks or less, don't get it.

I just want a original story that makes me think, and has an emotional impact.

Like SoTC, MGS2 and 3, HL2 - and now Bioshock.

I almost bought it on PS2 a few times (cheap) but didnt because its a 'rail shooter'. Might pickup the cube version cheap if I can find it

What is the most "mature" game ever created?

Mature can mean a lot of things to a lot of people. So, in your opinion, what is the most mature game that you have ever experienced?

---

Mine? Is going to be damn near impossible to top.

Killer7 is filled to the brim with things that even a lot of adults can't come to terms with. Killer 7 deals with the darkest sides of politics and the human psyche. Also, it has plenty of other very mature topics as well, such as child smuggling and sex. The game itself has a great deal of blood, gore, sex, and profanity. Also, this game is so scary that it makes resident evil 4 look like daily news. Still scary, but ignorable, unlike killer7, which will never allow you to fully get the imagery out of your head.

Still don't believe me?

This video has MAJOR spoilers. Don't watch it if you are even slightly interested. It will kill the whole experience.

Later in the game you find out that he *the killer* has been using the organs of slain girls to create more Heaven Smiles. Heaven Smiles, are people who literally explode, killing themselves and anyone around them.

You walk by several rows of bodies hanging from hooks. There is no blood because they are completely cleaned.

I think some people are getting 'mature' and 'immature' mixed up.

Games with maximal levels of violence, sex and swearing are more likely to be immature than mature.

Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines, for being both intelligent and having mature theme. Most of the songs in the soundtrack where written by bands that I listen to.

For those who care, the music in Asylum is Isolated by Chiasm.

The 'Postal' games are the anti-thesis of mature, they are the most pathetic, childish and inane creations around. If you find them amusing then you are probably the sort to find 'Shoot Osama' flash games funny, no doubt whilst watching cartoon porn in another window.

For me, I agree with the TC that Killer7 is truly mature in both content, delivery and subject matter. I also find Eternal Darkness: Danity's Requiem to be one of the most mature games around, aside from the grisly combat and themes the game also has some of the most accomplished scripting and narration to be seen in a game. I have been playing Hotel Dusk: Room 215 on DS, that is also an intelligent and truly mature titles.

Those who think 'maturity' in a game equates to gratuitous violence are sorely mistaken.

He didn't describe the Heaven's Smile too well - they're basically normal people, forcefully turned into invisible suicide bombers that laugh maniacally as you blow away their limbs with your assorted weaponry.

Oh, and the victim in that vid was hardly a nice guy. While the guy who killed him is into kidnapped/orphaned girls, Pedro prefer boys. ;)

..yeah, Killer7 really was one ****ed up game. Awesome, but crazy.

Actually, not all of them are invisible, as seen in the opening video. They have the ability to do so if required.

Yes, Curtis and Pedro worked together. Pedro apperantly betrayed Curtis and thus was killed by him.

IMO, some random Japanese dating sim games, if players actually read the story, have pretty mature themes.

Memories off 3 - you that become a memory, ever 17, would be fine examples.

Been playing it and games like it since I was a kid.

Violence = adult. Fact. Kids don't understand, nor are they allowed to view, violence in any form so it must be adult.

The FF games can be like that also. Some of the story go a little off track and you have to pay close attention to what going on to understand everything.
