Pick a random episode of south park or quentin tarantino movie, there's a good chance you'll find gory violence surpassing even the worst video games.
People just choose to stick their head in the sand and ignore how much ultra violence pervades all our media, and really I think it just serves to undermine video games as a whole to try and spread the perception that developers need to "play nice and tone it down".
Instead of shrinking down the pc resolution, why don't they blow up the ps3 and 360 pictures? A lot of people play these games upscaled on their 1080p televisions anyways. Makes for a comparison that is actually accurate.
