Play an 8 player "$$$F4st C4sh$$" free for all map with only zerg...then try to calculate the gallons of blood spwed out by hundreds of dying units during the course of the game. With the way the rating systems are becoming less and less lenient, ecpect an "A" rating by the end of the quarter. :roll:

who knows, they may find the reproduction of zerg offensive and slap on a big ol' Ao rating.

this is a dum questing but A rating?

 

[DeadDogNoGoWoof]

adults only.

PEGI rules

I think it may vary from country to country, as my copy of SC is rated for 15+

does it matter? you could make a humourous cartoon and gore in it and it would be rated mature as well.

 

[Insane llama]

well thats public rights for ya screwing everything up they think well stab people at the sight of drawn blood :lol:

 

[Doodi]

Hmmmm no need for "M (Mature) " i think lol! Many games have Violence & Blood & ther rated "T (Teen)" lol!

 

[qwerty]

its not only blood and gore which contributes to it. abusive language also does.

I thought star craft was rated T xD lol

 

[iplaystarcraft]

it was i guess... but now it's "M"

 

[Almost_there]

Thats strange... :?

 

[Afronight_76]

i doubt the language really makes it M since ff7 had a whole bunch of swearing and it was rated T
