With torture, mutilation, and gruesome surgeries, Metal Gear doesn't pull any punches when it comes to gore. The 11 game series has plenty of praise for its story and gameplay, but what about it's violence? Is there a hidden purpose behind it, or is it just bloody fun? On this episode of Game Show, Jamin looks into Hideo Kojima's brainchild, and explains why violence in the Metal Gear series could be a statement for much more.
