Transcript of controversial video games
In 1991 gaming started to become a normal thing, violent games was at a minority and the closest thing to dying was dropping to
the floor and disappearing but in 1992 Mortal Kombat released and it started a huge war between two tribes : the political world and the world of gaming and things were never
the same the main thing for all of this is MK’s fatality’s which included a guy ripping hearts out, uppercutting a head off and my favourite,
grabbing their head and ripping their spine off, its controversy made the ESRB rating.
Here is a montage of mk 1’s fatality’s
• DOOM has been one of the most influential games of all time and is also one of the most
controversial, through its high level of blood and gore and sparked more controversy through the columbine massacre in 1999 after it was found
that Eric Harris and Dylan Kebold, the two responsible, were avid DOOM players and made
a site hosting designed DOOM levels, while planning, Eric said that the killing would be like DOOM and that the shotgun came straight from the game, the game’s has a massive legacy and
is arguably one of the best games ever
