Graphic scenes of gunshot victims spurting blood and a jailer urinating into a prisoner’s cell are included among the 10 video games that some media warns should be avoided by kids and teens under the age of 17.

A scene from Assassin’s Creed depicts an attacker plunging a knife into his victim’s back several times. A jailer in Manhunt 2 taunts his prisoner by urinating into the man’s cell. A fallen victim’s body is riddled with gunfire as blood spurts across the screen in The Darkness.

All of the games listed above are rated M – for mature.

“There’s an endless stream of new games that will never be suitable for children,” said Rep. Betty McCollum, D-Minn..

“M” is a rating by ESRB (Entertainment Software Rating Board) which is intended for players 17 and older.
