Further clarification.
A chunk of meat is called a gib. Don't know the origin of this.
In many first person shooters, you hit someone hard enough, you "blow" their model into a rain of gibs and red particle trails that go flying off in all directions, based on the amount of "overkill" damage done. Hit somebody with a rocket when they're very low on health, and you get a nice shower. Hit somebody at 1 health with a Quad-strength rocket while carrying the Strength rune (8x damage) and they'll be picking his guts out of their teeth on the other side of the map.
"Computer games don't affect kids; I mean if Pac-Man affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music." -- Kristian Wilson, Nintendo, Inc, 1989
