Title: More on foul language in AH
Post by: Vulcan on September 18, 2000, 10:46:00 PM
Just wondering, what rating would AH be (you know, how some games these days get an R16 - like Soldier of Fortune). And I mean the rating BEFORE you take the language people like me use into account.

Would strafing para's on the ground be G, M, R16, or Adults?

According to their guide lines:

MV

or mild violence... i.e. game play can lead to killing a human. No animation of blood, guts, etc so it only gets a mild.

interesting guidelines...
using 4x20mm to cause another person's kite to explode into a fireball is "mild violence".

I'd call it plain violence (then go do it  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) )

Let's be realistic here, there is no gore in aces high, there are at best mild explosions.  It's right up there in violence with the old Atari Combat.  That was what, for ages 6-10?

Did the Atari enemies send four-letter words to you from beyond the grave?  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

AH and WB are easily R-rated for language alone.  And both feature sheep.

Give it another five years and that will only be PG tho...
