Spec Ops: The Line and Dying Light are two dark, gorey games. The linear military shooter and the co-op zombie freeroam, both great games in their own right, both boasting some brutal blood effects and sick little details in the environment. Both rich in story too. I think they would make for entertaining reviews, and they're new enough to net you some views.

Also, Manslaughter 1 is still the most globally banned game I think, due to its content and the time period it came out. There were some badass ways to kill people in that one. There was also an old Painkiller game where I remember feeding a guy into a circular saw or something. Was pretty good. Just some ideas to think about.

From what I remember Spec Ops didn't have any gore to it, but I just played the demo a long time a go. Also never heard of Manslaughter (and googling it didn't provide any real results).

I'll probably get Dying Light at when the price drops, it looks like fun.

Yep, Manhunt, that's the one. The second Manhunt wound up censoring all the kills because the first one was so banned that they didn't make any money off it. Spec Ops isn't overly gorey but there are some nice, grisly melee finishers and the blood spatter from guns is nice. It gets progressively gorier and desperate as you near the end. Also, what about Postal 2?

From what I remember Manhunt isn't that gory, it nailed the animations and sounds aspect (intense executions) but every other aspect was 'meh' at best.

Postal 2 is definitely on the way, just played it a few days ago. The things they did with an antique engine (Unreal 1.5) are amazing.

If you're running out of material Metal Gear Rising : Revengeance might provide something for a short video. You can chop someone's legs off before slicing the body into 256 pieces with some blood splatter assuming it doesn't despawn first, or off with the head, then hands and then the other leg or whatever you fancy. Other than that it's fairly limited on gore department.

Jaws Unleashed had some pretty good gore! :p
I remember that game, definitely goes on to do list :D

I got a really long to do list, don't see myself running out of material any time soon (got a few ideas for video articles that aren't related to gore reviews). Watched a gameplay vid of that, the disappearing blood and bodies really looks like a huge buzzkill.

State of Decay is such a **** game though. I played like 20 minutes of it then wondered why I spent my money on it without doing more research.

I just watched one of your videos. At the end of the next one, can you say this?
"I should be on that bridge. That Klingon is still out there and I'm the best weapons officer the Keptin has."
It would be hilarious.

Good attention to detail but sometimes you nit pick a bit and some of your complaints aren't really that valid. Like in the chivalry video I saw a few things that were done on purpose for gameplay but you said they were serious flaws because it wasn't realistic.
