Yeah, I remember this feature on the original Unreal too (and later versions of UT), you could change the 'gore level'. Not sure on the effects it had, since I never used it, but guessing it turns off the blood, and stops you from being able to blow people apart.

While putting in this feature may help please a few people, almost no-one will turn it on, more of a PR stunt I think.
