Though I have never played Hitman, the very principle of the game seems disturbing and sinister to me. It is more than possible a game could be equally exciting, sellable and ethical at the same time. As game developers, we should keep in mind we have a community minded responsibility to create good games that will improve the quality of life for everyone concerned, not just games that sell well for us. The last thing the world needs is a game like Hitman. I personally detest overt violence in a game.

The game's first incarnation was back in 1997, when I was 17. That probably explains it, actually. The gore in this incarnation of Gibbage is primarily there for comic effect. It's <i>funny</i> to watch your various cartoon bits and pieces arc through the air and bounce off a wall. It lends the whole thing a certain charm. It's not realistic and it's not off-putting... at least, for me...! Dan I’m not sure where the gore from Gibbage came from. The game’s first incarnation was back in 1997, when I was 17.
