I'm surprised Flatout wasn't on this list. Just watching those ragdoll physics makes me flinch.

Manhunt...*shudder* What a messed up game.

The end, where Starkweather gets his guts spilled with a chainsaw, is still one of the most disturbing scenes I've ever seen in a game.

I'm glad to see The Sims at #1. Nothing is funnier in that game than seeing sims die horrible deaths, whether you put them into those situations intentionally or otherwise.

I thought GTA4 would be worse than Tomb Raider. Mostly because of the excellent ragdolls they have now. You can jump off buildings into helicopters hovering below and launch yourself across the whole map bouncing off whatever you hit lol.

Hilarious list (especially Pain), but what about harvesting your first Little Sister in Bioshock?

Aw, I remember the good times of turning my Sim's house into a human zoo.

I HATE the living shit out of pain. Easily one of the most boring games EVER. *tick tick tick, rrrrr, floomp* ahhhhhhh *repeat*. ugh!
Shit, I had way more fun with the insurance fraud minigame in Saints Row 1-2.

from the top...

#7: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. If i had to buy a PS3 based off of one game, this would be it. also..
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

#6: wow. HAhAhAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAH. i'd feel so much worse if these things were ugly.

#5: I actually felt the pain from these after 30 seconds into the video. it's just wrong. This is the only one that made me feel it.

#4: I understand why people fell sadist for doing this, but i just don't. I chose evil from the beginning anyway. Maybe it's just one of those things you have to do to feel it.

#3: MORE HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhAHAHAHAhAhA. Ragdoll deaths ftw! loved the spikes death.

#2 Yeah, how could you have a list without this game. i was going to get it, but I decided not to. Very Weird.

#1: No Comment. I never played one of these games, and I never will.

If i had to add some, i would add...

Dead Rising. I mean, i know that they're zombies, but still... and the psycopaths were just freaky with what they did. The clown one was the best. Chainsaw deaths ftw. Of course, the Disembowerl atack is no laughing matter either.

Pokemon: Yeah, not the first thing on most people's lists, but come on. Going back to the beginning routes with your Level 100 legendaries, and meeting a poor level 2 Bidoof who's just looking for food or something. You could just run, but no. You tell your pokemon to attack with Hyper Beam. Fainted my ass.

SSBB: again, not the most sadistic game, but one thing sticks out in my mind: Near Kirby-ciding. Take a character who has a grab like move and an awesome recovery, like kirby, and get the character into your mouth, hands, etc. Jump off of the edge. now spit them out or throw them, and jump safely back onto the ground. That's just mean. ( Kirby, DeDeDe, Donkey Kong, and yoshi can all do this, and there are some others, if anyones wondering.)

I think Hitman can get sadistic IE not only the obscure methods you can pull off at times but the "repositioning" of bodies to lol!

And then theres Postal 2... if you ever played it (modded AW7 for extra effect) nuff said.

#2 is serious!

I think the most sadistic is Manhunt because the purpose of the game is to violently kill people..sims is just more fun but not required

Most sadistic moment in a game? That's gotta be from Harvester.

In the last scene of the game, you can "win" by slaughtering your defenseless girlfriend with a blade, while she cries and pleads you to stop. You then become a serial killer. And that's how the game ends.

I've played a lot of violent and sadistic games before, but Harvester is the first game that ever made me feel disgusted with myself for playing it.

Anyone else played this?
