OK, it's adult, 18+, but the advertisers show in game images, magazines and websites show in game images of decapated humans, people mutilating each other and in the case of The Punisher, heads being drilled or sawn (or fed to piranahs etc.). I find it distressing to see but I've grown hardened to it, but what about kids or unstable people - do we want them to see it?
OK, we have the likes of Halo and GTA, but the worse you get to see is a bit of blood and a scream. Not humiliating disembodying. I mean you must be seriously disturbed to want to invent these kinds of game - let alone want to play them. What happened to the time where you could turn on your computer and relax by kicking a ball around, racing in cars, playing as a comical dragon or bandicoot? Just tell me your opinions. I'm not anti-violence, just I think game designers/developers have taken the violence too far.
I never got interested in "The Suffering".
Go watch Braindead.
