Perhaps an animals revenge feature next Mr. Sterling? I would love to read your take on the chickens from Zelda, Monster Hunter Tri, Zombie dogs from R.E. etc...

Man...Postal 2 would have to take the cake in my book! You can take a cat, put your gun in it's ass and you the cat as a silencer for F*** sake! And Carmageddon 2 had lots of killing animals in it too. Mostly sheep and cows. "Counting Bodies Like Sheep To the Rhythm of the War Drum" -The Pet- APC

I'm surprised that World of Warcraft didn't make this list; the animals didn't even run away, so it was really a case of natural selection. I have fond memories of running through the forest, stabbing deer and rabbits left and right, wondering why their lack of a survival instinct didn't render them extinct millenia ago.

FSJ1: Because if I included every single game that every single person wanted, it would be a billion pages long.

Why isn't Red Dead Redemption in that list?

No Resident Evil 5 either. God knows how many times I've had to restart that level in the labs because my anti-animal cruelty co-op buddy shot me w/ a rocket launcher every time I shot the caged buggers. I was putting them out of their misery, I swear!

Beautiful article. It is particularly satisfying to place like 8 remote explosives on the cows in the Saboteur and set them all off at once. It's like the 4th of July, only this time the fireworks are cow guts.

R_U_Guys_From_British: The current plan is to keep writing for as long as GR keeps wanting me to. There are loads of features yet to be published, so hopefully this a lasting relationship.

As GamesRadar's Senior Wildlife Editor, I have to say that I am not pleased with this anti-animal propaganda. For shame, non-horses. For shame.

CaptainSpatula Ironically, you stumbled on the major joke but did not get the follow-through.
