The 25 Most Brutal Deaths in PC Gaming

David Murphy at Maximum PC takes a look at some of the most brutal deaths found in PC gaming.

Just how gory do PC games get nowadays? Spoiler: Get your umbrella. There’s a great crop of titles in the PC gaming universe that are guaranteed to make you squirm—either through a combination of their bloody mayhem, the actual method you go about killing someone (or being killed yourself), or the creativity a game puts into your hands and the decision it forces you to make about another character’s life.

Are all of the games on our list blood-spraying fountains of mayhem? Nope! But each and every death we’ve highlighted comes with its own special reasoning as to why it’s particularly brutal to watch. It goes without saying, but the videos we’re featuring are not for the squeamish! You’ve been warned.

I also enjoyed this, the phantasmagoria feeding scene at the end of it's video yikes hah. I have the second one from Gog.com. It's like 9 CDs.

Phantasmagoria... I played that for the first time when I was a kid and had NO IDEA what I was getting into. While it seems a little tame compared to some stuff out there now, it really freaked me out back then.

So, of course, I bought them both again as soon as they were released on gog.com

The Fallout Anthology Edition is coming to PC very soon, and is packaged with some very S.P.E.C.I.A.L. bonuses.

They included physical disc back then

EA Shoots Down Dead Space 2 Remake Rumors: 'No Validity to This Story'

EA has shut down rumors that EA Motive considered a Dead Space 2 remake before shelving it due to low sales of the previous game, saying there's "no validity" to the reports.

XiNatsuDragnel7d ago

Sure.... right.... at least remake dead space 3 w/o microtransactions bs.

XiNatsuDragnel6d ago

I sometimes I wished I didn't Ngl lol

Knightofelemia6d ago

Why not remake DS2 whether shot down or not it's still my favorite game next to DS1. As much as I hate EA I would buy or would have bought DS2 day one.

MeteorPanda6d ago

No validity XD "Guys guys, we cant possible make a good game or cater to the gamers wants, stop"

I don't know if sales met their expectations or not. I just know that the high review scores received my attention so I was interested in buying it, but its price stayed high (50+ bucks) for so long that I simply never bothered picking it up.

Tacoboto6d ago

Doesn't pay full price
Doesn't pay *any* price
Ponders if sales met expectations regarding an allegedly canceled sequel.

Gee...

Yi-Long6d ago

Well, for starters, I'm sure there are plenty of games I never bought which did, somehow, still, meet their sales-expectations.

Concerning Dead Space; I never played and thus cared for the original. It's in multiple genres (shooter, sci-fi, horror) I don't particularly care about so it was barely on my radar pre-launch. I was never its target-audience.

When reviews hit, and it was scoring big, it gathered my interest, so while it wasn't in my field of interest, it mrans that I wanted to give it a fair shot and at least give it a try, as I do with many games across different genres; I tend to just cherry-pick the good stuff and see if it's for me or not.

But, I do wait for sales on those games I take a risk on.

Kornholic5d ago (Edited 5d ago )

Lol, you are a huge part of the problem. If a very high-quality game is not even worth 50 bucks to you, then what is?
