Note that we offer two alternatives for each game, one for younger players and one for older players. The thing is, instead of saying no all the time, we think you'll be more successful if you say, "Wait," and offer kids alternatives in the same genre that are a little less violent and more age-appropriate. A lot of them are well-designed gameplay experiences, but they're definitely not for kids.
Below, we've gathered 10 of the most extreme titles to come out this year. Many parents whose kids ask for these games (or set up a line of credit on game sites such as Steam) may know that the games are violent, but not the specific kinds of violence they contain. But research shows that heavy exposure to violent media is associated with aggressive behavior, desensitization, and violent thoughts. The impact of violent media on kids is still being studied - especially as game violence jumps from the screen to virtual reality. The truth is, the majority of the hyper-realistic, hyperpopular games are best left to mature players. Marketers advertise the excitement, the depth of realism, and the cool gameplay - but they often don't tell you exactly how violent the games are. Trailers, demos, blogs, and more air on TV, go viral on social media, and are discussed endlessly on game sites.

How is he still alive, and worse, how are you ever going to escape if you have to kill him again and again? You should go, but as you get to the door, it swings open, and you're face to face with the man you killed minutes before. You take a break in an upstairs bathroom to catch your breath, but something doesn't feel right. What's worse, it looks like you're on your own, because a sheriff's deputy was killed in front of your eyes. You've been shot at, bludgeoned, and stabbed as you try to escape this life-or-death situation. You've just escaped from a sprawling mansion deep in the Louisiana bayou.
