This is the new up and coming game "Death Cargo" that is similar to Mortal Kombat, a fighting game where you kill your opponent in the end. Except that this looks EXTREMELY realistic this time. Is there a point at which violence in video games is too much, too realistic? You've been warned, these videos contain explicit violence:
No, I don't think they'll get too realistic. If it starts looking like real life then more people will be disgusted by it. You show someone those videos you posted and they might think it's gross. You show someone some of those al-Qaeda beheading videos and at best they'll feel very disturbed, at worse they'll probably vomit.
RapeLay - Yuuko's Body Preview (HD) - YouTube - RAPELAY: This video game got peoples panties in a big wad a few years ago. Sexually suggestive literature and multimedia are purportedly fairly routine in Japan (they are really into their cartoons over there - as it is the source of at least a dozen cultural fads, hentai being just one of them), but in more reserved countries, it's taboo.
There are very few circumstances under which video games, movies, tv shows, radio shows, or any other form of entertainment, would go "too far," under my broad standard of free speech.

Would you say the same thing about film or literature? Although, in this case I find it more comical, than realistic.

Meh, nothing worse than what you see in movies. Whether a game/movie/whatever is too violent should be up to the individual. If it's too much then don't play it.
Those clips all look like some high school kids filming in an LA back alley then souping it up with a cracked copy of After Effects. Fighting games are inherently silly and the gore is supposed to be over the top for comedic effect, like Time Killers. It's obviously juvenile fantasy going on with those games.
What's far worse are the military glorification shooters that do more to dehumanize 3rd world people than a hundred years of boot camp brainwashing could ever accomplish. The last Modern Warfare game had you gunning down civilians in a Russian airport and running through a Brazilian favela mowing down "bad guys" indiscriminately before torturing one of them. The only one of those types of games that isn't little more than pro-US military propaganda is the Red Orchestra series.

Yeah, I used to be pretty liberal, but then I played a video game where I infiltrated a terrorist group in Russia that shot up an airport, and now all I want to do is kill those dirty commies!
Oh, and whenever I go to Rio, I make sure to rent an armored car and go shoot up Favelas - I can't stand those dirty third worlders! They're animals!
