With all the violence readily available on television and in movies, is there really a market for violent video games? Of course there is! According to CNet, here are the 10 most violent video games of all time:
- Thrill Kill
- Manhunt
- Gears of War
- God of War
- Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks
- Mortal Kombat: Deception
- Hitman: Blood Money
- The Punisher
- Splatterhouse
- Mortal Kombat
Has CNet forgotten Wonder Boy? Tom-Tom was heavily armed with a stone hammer and we weren't afraid to use it. And lest we forget Drancon, he was one tough mofo. He didn't hesitate to use fireballs or lightning bolts against poor skater boi Tom-Tom.
Wonder Boy easily ranks in the top five, although I haven't really played video games that weren't sports related since I finished the Legend of Zelda.
