Expected around that.

Like elder scrolls 3, it's prolly gonna be a "smarter" game for people, but they also want to lower the rating as much as possible to get more people to buy it. Standard marketing right there.

That is very true but im sure it will be awesome

I dunno, I'm actually becoming skeptical on this.

But, that's all covered in several other threads, what it'd be like and stuff, so I won't delve deeper here.

Does anyone ever look at the ESRB rating?

Yeah, considering that I'm underage, and in the US They wont let me buy it if its rated M.

I expect ratings are actually pretty high profile at the moment, especially in the States with the whole San Andreas/Hot Coffee fiasco.

Really? Ive run into that a few times myself, but sometimes, if I just act like its nothing out of the ordinary for a 15 year old to be buying a game rated M with out a parent (which it isnt) I can normally get by. also it helps if you get to know the guys working th ecounter.

Not if your parents wont buy it. I have not that trouble, though, buying my own games and being older than the average gamer.

By the way, I expect this game to come to Brazil.

Otherwise, 3x the price to bring it from the us! AAARGH!

Gogamer.com in Europe has it for $44 US which is $5 US cheaper than the US (last I looked), so you don't have to pay 3x to get it.

Thou I don't know why you would be paying 3x more from the US.

As he said, he's in Brazil, meaning he'd have to pay a huge shipping to get the game.

In any case, I've been able to get M rated games since my 16th Bday, they thought with my excessive facial hair I was 21 (HA!).

After I posted yesterday I did some reserch and I found out that half the games I have bought over the years I was not allowed to buy, no one ever said anything to me? I worked at a game store and I always thought that was just our company policy to check ages.

I don't have a problem with it, but there is this really old guy who looks like Jack Nicholson at my video game store. He must think I have to much money. Therefore, I must be a hooligan drug dealer who shouldnt be buying the games.

Parents will buy it if I want it though. Not really that much to buy, considering I don't play many FPS (Just Halo).

I don't think anyone in Flanders cares about those age ratings, there's never been a big debate over them, nor a campaign or protest. Most shops will sell 18+ games to anyone who wants them, except if they have explicit erotical content but those games aren't sold in toystores anyway.
