Most gruesome football game trailer ever: Blitz: The League 2

Stop whining about busted bones -- there's a game to play
The Blitz series of football games have never been known as football simulators. They are kind of the anti-Madden of the football games. Definitely arcade action is featured over realism -- and this is certainly the game's major strength.
In these two clips, the Blitz: The League 2 brings the entire injury system up a notch, this time around. This gamer personally likes what they've done with it: they've made busting bones pretty entertaining (bursting your buddy's spleen through a well-timed body slam sounds like fun to me.) They've also made a sort of sports trainer mini-game out of injuries as well.
If you have a good aim with a needle, or are able to jam arms back into shoulder sockets, then you just might be able to get your star receiver back in the game.
Blitz: The League 2 is coming for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 on October 13th.

The game pacing and moment to moment is so much more like the original Blitz in the arcades, except evolved. Never a dull moment. Never...
Agreed
