That the people who rate our games are kept unknown.
Would really like to meet these people or hear there voices etc.

I STRONGLY dislike the ESRB.
How discriminating could they be to proclaim "All people below this age are too immature to play this game!"?

Besides, their caculations are way off. Metroid Fusion should be rated T. So what if it's 2D and pixelated?

-Yakuza (Makes people over-rage)
-Nightmare (Do I have to explain this thing's face?)
-SA-X's close-up
-Dead bodies after Arachnus-X.

Or Minecraft, where you can murder helpless farm animals?
Almost everything is violent in some way, it's just that the games that try to dress it up and make it look innocuous are the ones that get rewarded with a non-restrictive rating.

I've always found it funny that Fire Emblem is rated E.

Halo is literally about as violent as Star Wars.

Battlefront? What.

Or are you comparing a game to a movie?

Halo should be T. "AHH ALIENS OMGOMG M MMMM M M M "

I'm saying that the amount of death and level of realism of Halo is equal to that of Star Wars. It's a bit of a weird comparison considering they're across different types of media. But yeah, I'm agreeing that it should be rated T.

Not like today's generation couldn't handle.

I hear 10 year olds cussing out people and talking about how amazing GTA is.

Agreed. Their calculations are a bit off. For example:

Team Fortress 2: The only thing it has going for its current rating are the blood and swearing

Metroid Fusion: This is a kids' game by their standards?!

Halo: About as violent as Metroid or Star Wars

Anything that if slightly "adult" or "mature" is automatically given an M rating.

Really, they need to do away with the letter ratings. Just describe what you're likely to see in the game, in a way that is brief, but still tells you what you need to know.

@random

They wanted Shadow The Hedgehog to be open to wider audiences, and made it E10+. Despite he says d*** every time he dies, that should deserve an M rating.

"Halo" Is rated M Mainly because of the Flood, which make nightmarish creatures out of living corpses, Bungie wanted the game to be T-rated until ESRB saw the Flood.

@Telamonlikefire

In the PSVITA Version Not the PS3 versions
But LBP PSP should be T because it has the word @$$ in it
The art style in the vita version is just creepy

not @Telamon
And in the song His world in Sonic 06 has the line
Kickin' @$$ Fast But it's still rated E10+

Portal 2 Has some swearing in it Enough to make it T rated and the Valve intro can freak a little kid out. Especially on the PC Version.

I also hate how ESRB doesn't actually play the games, they just watch whatever clips they get sent and stamp a rating on there. That's how they missed the one minor profanity in LBP Portable.
