Also in Phantasmagoria (around the end) if the beasty catches you, he rips you in half. Very gruesome stuff Slarti. It's FMV, so you get too see the real thing.

I've never seen anything gruesome in a game before, unless you think unconscious people are gruesome.

The only scene in an adventure game that I thought was gruesome involved a cat in Midnight Nowhere. I thought the game was pretty good otherwise.
The only game that I have been completely put off of because of gruesome content would be Silent Hill 4.

I have to say that the first Silent Hill and the first Resident Evil totally freaked me out. I don't think I would have played them alone in a dark empty apartment at the time. Unfortunately I've been tainted on stuff like that now and haven't seen anything since that's affected me like that.

PS: Slartibartfast, thought I would comment on your cool name as I am just finishing up reading the whole series again.

I agree.

Yes, definitely the last part of Phantasmagoria 1 if you fail the final task - but I was shocked to see the graphic images in Post Mortem

I have to say, it bothers me most when Its MY body, or person I am playing getting the sword in the eye, or the head cut off, just finished black mirror, ICK!!!!!!!!
not my fav game, i was GLAD IT WAS FINALLY DONE!!!

I think I'm odd! I don't watch gruesome/horror movies (except by Mr Tarantino) and yet gruesome pc games don't bother me at all. I wonder what the difference is. But the death in BS3 really moved me and shocked me and like George I needed to compose my self afterwards.

Hi aretha, some of Mr Tarantino's movies include some nasty scenes - Reservoir Dogs is not exactly light! I hate to think what you would call gruesome!
