to be honest, i do think the esrb does go overboard with some of their ratings such as halo and CoD4. Batman is a great game and it is very far from an M rating. It is violent, but if violence is the only thing that makes a game “M for mature” then shouldn’t all first person shooters have an M rating on the front of the box? Batman has a more mature storyline and may be frightening for 5 year olds, but I highly doubt a 5 year old will find this game enjoyable simply because it may be too hard for them. Although violent, Batman doesn’t have any gore, and it has very mild blood. You don’t have characters bleeding all over the place with an arm chopped off. T is the perfect rating for this game.

Just like the rating E10 I think the ESRB should make a new rating such as T15. Not all Mature games deserve the rating imo, such as half life 2 and all 3 halo’s

Well, the reason that Mass Effect got it’s M rating was for sex. If there was not sex it definitely gotten a T. As for Halo, that’s probably more tradition than anything else because the first one was rated M for its time.

If you look at it i found it quiet clear as why it was rated T. Not does batman not kill people there isnt a single drop of blood in the game. Now games i was surprised that were T more were recent PSN title fat princess and also Uncharted drakes fortune as both thesse games contain lots of blood and more then M games Mass Effect and Halo.

Jack doesn’t understand what I did here.

Jack, lets go through this slow. YOU are at the only site on the Interest featuring a Virtual Violence and VideoGame EXPERT who is PRO-Videogames. I also seek to help parents. The only lines I make in the sane are that GTA and Sanits Row and Manhunt – are adult enough to be Rated M. Some war games like Call of 4 could be rated M. And Batman should probably be rated M.

Other than that I lke to let the parents decide their opinion by giving them info and the ESRB the right to rate games as they see fit.

That’s it. I said Halo-1-3 should have been T
I’ve argued thta Left 4 Dead and Cal of Duty could be T
I’m glad Batman is T

It’s a fine game – go play it! Just understand that im helping you.

Oh and a KO doesn’t equal violence? Seesh! Come over to my house, I know a Teen, Golden Gloves whol’ll show you just how violent a concussion really is. He’ll do it without Fight Night 4 btw.

for god sake this game is not violent i played the demo it is not violent there is no death and this game is a great game if your over the age, that is why they have age ratings.
There is a big difference between dead and KO’d one is violent one is not.

please stop ruining games.

I agree with you on this subject. The difference between dead and KO’d should be moot. Whether or not they’re actually dead doesn’t make the violence any less brutal or bloody.

Awesome. I was gonna skip this originally, but now I’ve seen it recommended left and right, so I’ll have to give it a try.
