Gory Game 10 (Medal of Honor)

     Medal of Honor is a first person shooter that came out October 12, 2010. It is a rated M game and it is a game based on the war that is going on in Afganistan right now. The violence in this game is very high. As one source I want to use a video. The link to the video is here. The ending is pretty graphic so descretions is warned. The ending of the video is what I want to talk about. you are on a cliff, with a 50 caliber sniper, and the scope reaches really far. You find a bunch of Afganistans and your mission is to snipe them. The first man you snipe, your superior officer says to, "Bust him...", then 3 seconds after, you shoot, when suddenly you see the enemies head your shooting at explode! How much more graphic can you get in a video game. You are the controller and you're controlling your character to shoot at this character with a bullet the size of my hand, therefore taking his head off.
     But not just that, from another source, the violence is so high in that game, and it is rated M, but there was an upcoming court case on whether or not, the rating for this game, should be compared to the same level as pornography! To be compared to that, is pretty bad. It was also to make the selling games to kids underage topic, a more serious matter in the US. The gore reaches high levels in this game, to where you choose to shoot a bullet at an Afganistan up on a cliff, and blow his head off, while watching it happen. That and the fact that the game is probably reaching the same level restrictions as pornography, makes this game , one that should not be experienced.
