Violence is everywhere in gamedom. From platformers to RTS games to shooters, one of your main objectives is to kill things. Bur recently, that violence has become described as “ultra.” In this week’s podcast we’re talking not only about the gore-fest that was E3 2012 but violence in video games in general and it how it works and doesn’t.
