Too gory perhaps? Just think of it this way -- that's not actual blood, it's Kool-Aid. Besides, this is the only screenshot in this new batch that's like this. The others are well-tamed. Have a look at those pics in the gallery below, and then check out a video clip showing off more in-game environments after the break. The environments still look so-so, but hey, can't win them all.
Latest Project Origin media will make you explode

That might be an overstatement, but at least for one guy (the unlucky soul pictured above) it's truth. We've been bashing Project Origin on at least two occasions in the past, but this time we're not going to. The above picture is impressive. If such graphical detail of fluids flying in the air can be pulled off in the actual game engine, then we're going to have to change the tune we're singing.

That's not Kool-Aid. That's grape drink.

I'm sorry Project Origin?
I thought you meant, generic post-apocalyptic FPS number 86.
Video could have fooled me.

Call me a loser or a wuss but I don't want to play a game like that. Violence is one thing but we don't have to see blood spurting everywhere. One reason why I think Ninja Gaiden II can bite dust for all I care.
Just because you can show a brutal decapitation with blood and parts flying everywhere doesn't mean you should. I think it destracts from the game and allows publishers to be lazy knowing that pubesents will buy it because of gore instead of gameplay.

That sure is a lot of Kool-Aid.

That 'high res' shot is neither 1280x720 or 1920x1080, therefore its useless.. more misrepresentation of the actual look of the game.
Why do we still get this junk?

Project origin is basically FEAR3. FEAR was a great game though the PS3 port wasn't that good.
