what is the most violent game you ever played

Probably the God of War series.

No one has said postal 2 yet? That takes the cake, no questions asked.

Games I have played? That has to go to Amnesia.

At first the game isn't really dark or gruesome, but once you get to the torture chambers...

That and the game explains some things about Daniel himself which was a bit dark/violent to me.

I think.... MadWorldfunsohng

I was going to say Manhunt 2. But I think you nailed it with this one.

No More Heroes, Ninja Gaiden, Army of Two the 40th Day has some brutal ways to kill enemies, and Gears of War all come to mind.

Soldier of Fortune was pretty violent.

Killzone 3/Gears of War

But God of War 3 is in my backlog. Once I finish that I'm sure it'll be number one.

Edit: Almost forgot about Dark Sector. Fun but very very violent game.

Doom 3 always holds the prize in my collection of games for gore and blood

The No More Heroes games.

Manhunt

Gears 3

One of the first violent games i played was Moonstone on A500. Loved that game!

Recently, Gears of War series, easly.

Prototype, God of War, and Left 4 Dead 2.

Manhunt. So many of the finishers are still the most brutal depictions of violence that have ever graced video games.

Manhunt

Mortal Kombat back in the early 90's, gaming never saw anything like it.

(had to pay my respects)

Anyhow Postal 2 (PC), Gears (PC/360), and Manhant (Multi) are absolut bloodfests.

Gears 1 &2

ninja gaiden 2

I laugh at your fail violent games system wars. The most violent game is easily POSTAL 2!

came in to say manhunt, but it looks like you guys have that one covered.

Mortal Kombat, God of War 2/3, Dead Space 2/3, and MadWorld. However, I find myself laughing at or enjoying the violence in those games save for Dead Space, where some of it is still unsettling at times.

Haven't played Manhunt, but:

• God of War 3
• Gears of War 1/2
• Mortal Kombat
• Dead Space 1/2

So I was playing South Park on my N64 last night due to a nostalgia rush. That has to be the most violent game I ever played because while playing it all I was thinking was finding where the devs live, stalking them, kill their pets, tie them up, shove the controller in their face for implementing such horrid controls, and shove the game cartridge up their a***s for creating such a sh***y game based on one of my favorite franchises. Also, shooting giant turkeys with nerf arrows is pretty hardcore.

Any answer but manhunt is wrong. The first kill in the game is with a plastic bag for crying out loud. Sticking shards of glass in guys eyes. and chopping guys heads off all while they are blisfully unaware. That game is like sodomy

God of War 3, MK, Gears of War, Soldier of Fortune 1+2 (I actually think these are the most violent) and NG2.

I have to agree with most of the people here, ManHunt is by far the obvious choice.

Sure, games like GoW, Postal, MK, etc. had tons of blood and stuff but at the end, everything feels kind of goofy, but ManHunt has other kind of violence aside from the murders, it has this psychological violence that it just make me shiver, i mean, to even think that there are people in the world similar to the people in the game is truly frightening, so yeah, ManHunt and even Manhunt 2.

Fat italian plumber takes drugs (magic mushrooms) to make him temporarily "bigger" (in his mind) and then uses his obese weight to kill several hundred innocent turtles. No contest.

Thrill Kill,I think.

I guess Manhunt. Maybe Postal 2, but it was just stupid violence. GoW3 had some great violent moments but since most things are mythical beasts and whatnot, that kind of draws from the shock value.

The uncencored version of Vietcong had some nice gore and Soldier of Fortune 2 did too.

maybe god of war?

Manhunt and Kingpin: Life of Crime. Though they're not the only violent games out there, but they're the ones that seemed to be hinged on the violence.

God of War 3
Gears of War

I think.... MadWorldfunsohng

Madworld.

I never played Manhunt series.

The only two violent games I can actually list from what I played was Bloodrayne 2 and No More Heroes 1 & 2.

Manhunt wasn't just violent, it was it's realistic and down to earth depiction of urban violence that was quite easy to be immersed in.

manhunt,mortal kombat,madworld come to mind

Old but great thread.

I'll add Dead Island.
