Line 60:
* In the Japanese ''Rockman Zero'' series, robots give out a spray of red oil when killed with the saber. This is censored for some bizarre reason in the American ''[[Mega Man Zero]]'' localizations.
* Possibly done in ''[[Mario Party]]''s Horror Land board, where there's a red bloodstain type puddle, which is just about shown coming from a huge overturned ketchup bottle that's been held by a gravestone.
* In ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'', when fighting the [[Hercules (Disney1997 film)||Hydra]], the heads being chopped off lead to leaking smoke instead of blood. In [[Hercules (Disney1997 film)||the movie]] and the Japanese version of the game there's slime instead.
** [[Kingdom Hearts]] kind of seems to like using darkness as symbolic blood, actually. The {{spoiler|remade version of the Deep Dive scene}} in [[Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days|358/2 Days]] has a moment where the dark smoke from the Heartless he just slew flies in front of his face like he was in some kind of samurai movie. The best example, though, is when Terra {{spoiler|shot Braig in the face}} in ''Birth by Sleep'' - {{spoiler|the reddish smoke fountaining from his missing eye and dark splotch where his scar will be}} might not necessarily ''be'' blood, but they sure do look like it, and the game never really bothers to make sure you realize it isn't.
* [[Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots]]: Raiden's [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|white cyborg blood]] on [[Depraved Bisexual|Vamp's]] [[Freud Was Right|crotch-knife]]. [[Squick|Do Not Want.]]
