What's BLACK or WHITE and RED all over?

Folder: Aesthetic Lists
Must contain BRIGHT RED. Not maroonish. Not pinkish. Muted red accents don't count. Other-colored accents, background colors, colored characters, colored text, or too much orange are disqualifications. Recently removed off-white titles and grayscale images with red text.

Mirror's Edge and Mirror's Edge Catalyst?

@Drax I'm currently debating just how strict to be with skin tones (Hitman Absolution, RDR, and Wolfenstein II are currently on the chopping block), but definitely no blue skies. This list was like twice as long this morning lol trying to keep it tight and uniform.

Fair enough! Also, I realized that Carrion's cover art probably fits the bill better as is.

@Drax Nice, adding Carrion!

Quake iii arena

They look sweet all together like this. I would add:

The Ascent
Carrion
1979: Revolution
Red Faction
Max Payne

I think an argument could be made for Superhot 2 and Metro 2033 but I would understand rejecting them.

@elkmane Thanks for the Quake reminder!
@cowboyjosh solid recs, The Ascent in particular is perfect! I actually removed Max Payne already because of the yellow tape, if it just had the red/white/black it'd fit right in.
@zn0 Some of these are great! Didn't use the ones with yellow or orange, but that Godzilla art owns

On a hunch I went through @Elkmane's logged games and found like 15 more lol

@drax Red Steel was a good pull!
@HylianBran ooh there are a lot of Ninja Gaidens that might fit, I'll have to see if there are any without extra colors, good idea!
@LordDarias That fits perfectly
@DeltaWDunn Great picks

Okay, we've officially passed 100 games! I'm gonna keep this list at a single page, so it's time to start being even stricter with the criteria and swapping out games with hints of other colors. Thanks to everyone for all your help!

@DeltaWDunn Thanks for the second batch! Some great stuff in there.
@FallenGrace All 5 of those work really well, thanks so much!
@HylianBran Those still had some other colors beyond B/W/R, but I appreciate the suggestions!
@Jackier HOW did I forget about Carmageddon. Thank you!

Just did 6 more swaps, having to get REAL nitpicky about how much extra color is too much now. Devil May Cry and God of War III might be gone next...

very smart list. It's interesting seeing how disjointed independent design choices cohere together to create a nearly flawless gradient from white to red to black.
