    For me, easily Spec Ops: The Line.

    That game took an incredibly dark turn during the White Phosphorus scene. You know those top-down camera views in Call of Duty where you shoot enemies from the sky? This game does that, too. And then, boom, you find out that you just burned a refugee camp to the ground with phosphorus bombs. And this game actually forces you to walk through the travesty you just caused, and see all of the flaiming remains of soldiers screaming for help and buildings and cars burning and on fire. But, the most haunting part of that scene is the burning carcass of a woman holding her child as the white phosphorus breaches through the gate.

    That image has been burned into my brain. 10/10 will not be playing again anytime soon

      I’m a bit surprised by this. Had you not heard anything about the game? I’m not saying I expected that but I thought it was pretty clear from the start that the game was going to be subversive

      Wait, so you’re asking about video GAMES? You somehow failed at asking that in the title, you asked for videos.
