Rating Question - Martok42 - 10-27-2010

Greetings everyone,

I have a question, what would you say the rating equivilent of this game is? I mean sinse it doesn't have a rating that I can find, would it be 'M'? Wikipedia says 'T' but I somehow doubt that.

ESRB: T to M .
However, game doesn't show anything of those what you hear "happening".
So, it would be T because of that.

However, what happens in the game (if you could see it instead of just hearing it) it would be M.

This is just my opinion.

It has male nudity. It would be rated AO in the States.

(thank you, Jack Valenti)


RE: Rating Question - Martok42 - 10-27-2010

So, wait, which one is it? Is there really male nudity??


RE: Rating Question - Yuhaney - 10-27-2010

Yes.


RE: Rating Question - Martok42 - 10-27-2010

Wait, then how in the world would this game be classified T???


RE: Rating Question - Sexbad - 10-27-2010

It wouldn't. It has no official parental guidance rating that I could find anywhere. It should probably stay that way because of the stupid reasons such as a penis that rich white people would find to rate it adults-only.


RE: Rating Question - Martok42 - 10-27-2010

Hhm, I see. Ok then. Thank you for clearing this up.

(Stupid Wikipedia, and their lies!)

The amount of blood in some areas is enough for an M rating. Plus a game being scary is enough to warrant an M. (probably something about intense violence or action that ive seen before) But the male nudity would definitely give it an AO.


RE: Rating Question - Sexbad - 10-27-2010

There have been other games with dicks such as Dante's Inferno or GTAIV: The Lost and Damned that have M ratings, though. But this one isn't as high-budget. So it's a hard thing to say.

Screw the ESRB and PEGI though. Ratings are limitations. I mean if you really need one to get it on shelves, then you should probably go for it.
