Video: Hypno
While forcing strangers to commit suicide may not be the most mom-friendly game mechanic, you've got to hand it to Gaubatz for creating a concept with some serious edge:
Take the role of a dangerously powerful hypnotist in this dark story-driven experience. Use your abilities to cut a bloody swath through the city by ripping the intentions from one person and branding them down on others. Wherever you go, the people around you are your weapons - use them through 17 varied missions of assassination, interrogation, and mayhem as you exact your revenge on the world.
So if you're up for it, or enjoyed Persona 3 for its shock value, download the trial version of Hypno on the Xbox Live Indie Games Marketplace, or check out the game's website before you paint the town red with blood.

That was... horrific.
As I said in my impressions in the Weekly Xbox Indies article on Wednesday, it's an interesting game, but definitely not for everyone.
The trial version gives a good sense of the gameplay, but there's a really trippy intro scene that you only get to see in the full version.
