9. Splatterhouse (2010)
Splatterhouse the 2010 game not the original 1988 release is one of the most broken games I've ever had the misfortune to attempt to play. Not because of its swimming pools of blood which I'll get to later but because of its awful controls that feel like the game is fighting your commands, a camera that is less interested in the game than I am, and frame rate problems straight from the masked demon himself. Now for actual gory content, I feel pretty comfortable in saying that Splatterhouse is the bloodiest game I've ever played. Everything exposes thick red plasma at a mere glance probably because the blood effects are the only redeeming portion of Splatterhouse so touching an enemy will cause them to fire red goo at you like some strange blood-powered cannon. I do think the developers were trying to create a title that was gruesome for the hell of it, but failing to program simple gameplay mechanics makes Splatterhouse feel very juvenile.
