I've been suffocating folks with plastic bags, decapitating my enemies with machetes, and stabbing gang members with glass shards. And I'm only at level 5. I'm playing this game called Manhunt. It's rated 'M' for mature, but is should probably be rated 'V' because it contains vulgar language, graphic violence, violent violence, and very violent violence. Seriously not for kids.

The premise of the game is that I am a death row inmate who has been given a second chance at life by a sick movie director. The deal is that I must get through levels by executing and killing gang members who are hunting me and he gets to film it. The game plays a lot like Metal Gear Solid, but with a lot more blood and gore. As disturbing as this game may be, I really like playing it. It's a nice change of pace from Madden or NCAA College Football.
