I can give you teen games that are surprisingly not rated "M." The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, being the flagship among them. You can fucking cultivate and smoke crack in that game! How did it only get a teen rating?!

I never understood why the Halo games were rated M.

Perfect Dark should've been rated T if Goldeneye was.

The M that Mass Effect got seemed a bit harsh.

No, The 12+ it got here in the UK seemed far more appropriate.

Oblivion was re-rated an M shortly after its initial release. Don't you remember all the fuss about it? It had more to do with the nude patches for the PC version than say, murdering people in their sleep. I'd say Halo is pretty silly getting an M rating, personally.

In America sex is evil. It deserves that M rating.

Not really. Perfect Dark was brutal at the time. Blood everywhere, there was so much blood on the walls. It was certainly a hell lot more violent than its mediocre prequel-sequel Perfect Dark Zero.
Now that game deserved a T rating.

Crackdown is another one that garners an M rating, which definitely doesn't deserve it.

I find it weird that the first Ghost Recon games were rated M.

The Halo games are pretty tame. They should have a T rating, it's not like kids aren't getting their hands on them anyways. Shadowrun was also a really weak M rating.

If they toned down the swearing, Black would've easily been a T game, but I like the excessive "fuck"s in that game.

It's the exact opposite in Europe, where violence is evil and sex is pretty much accepted. That's why nobody in the UK is that offended when you say they're a bit "camp".

To go the other way, Uncharted got a T rating and I think it should have gotten an M rating.

You can shoot people in the back of the head, execution style, in cold blood. Not to mention multiple sex scenes. I'm not saying those things are bad, I'm saying that a mature rating is completely warranted.

In our rating system, i'd think giving that an 18 or even a 15 would be a bit much. It's not particularly explicit, from what I remember.

Oh, I'm not saying it's incredibly graphic. But compare it to any other game with a teen rating and you will never see that content.

I got off to the naked alien woman.
Multiple times.
Then I cried myself to sleep.

Definitely NOT. Uncharted was exactly like a PG-13 film.

Jumping in that game was and is awesome. I found myself jumping throughout the whole game and never got tired of it.

This may not be a weird rating but as a kid I remember renting Clayfighter for the n64 and thinking "Holy fucking choclate jesus, this game is rated T" because back then I thought I was hardcore when I rented T and M games.

@KillaMaStA: In gameplay you barely notice it, I still really think it should've been rated T, or at least the first one. The second and third, maybe...

Bionic Commando Rearmed.  It's only because of one scene that it got the M rating.  But then I guess they would've had to heavily edit it.

LMAO! Now THERE'S a franchise that needs to come back. Clayfighter was awesome!!! I loved that game. God only knows how many hours me and friends lost to it.

On topic though, I don't understand why the ESRB gave Persona 3 an M rating and not a T rating. I mean what the hell you can't even kiss or sleep with your girlfriend in that game.
