Gameplay Trailer for Mass-Murdering Shooter Is Beyond Brutal
I honestly think this is in such poor taste...
More about the game and the controversy its causing...Polish developer Destructive Creations has released the first gameplay trailer for Hatred, an isometric shooter where you play a cold-blooded killer on a mass-shooting spree.

I don't think I would feel comfortable playing this at all.
Nothing shocking really, I recall Postal and Manhunt where brutal and equally violent yet they did very well and gained a cult following of sorts.
*edit*
Yes I will play this, and yes I did play the MW2 Airport scene and enjoyed it. Does that make me a mass murderer? Not in any way.

That's rather morbid.
I'd like to give it a try. See what the extent of the AI and the killing animations are. As for the game being tasteful - definitely not.
Good way to generate traffic though.

Not my kind of game, but I wouldn't really call it "shocking."
I suspect that given today's climate surrounding this sort of media, it'll likely face all sorts of battles to even see the light of day.
Essentially, I don't oppose controversial games but I can fully see it being blamed for everything under the sun on release.
lol Eugean don't be a wuss
Yeah, You Gean you!
Meh, this isn't my kind of game.
I don't think you can compare this game to Postal. Postal was first and foremost a comedy/satire. Never played Manhunt though...
Man hunt was so bloody awesome!
Manhunt was awesome, but you generally weren't killing innocent people begging for their lives. You have to be pretty twisted to get any joy from that.

I'm with Glordit on this one. MW2's airport scene did not effect me at all but rather enhanced the sense of urgency in the story imo.
I think really graphics scenes of violence or abuse, when done incredibly carefully and respectfully, can enhance the overall experience of a game. That being said I wouldn't jam Hatred, I'd rather play Transistor again
