I'm starting to accept the fact that our youth is getting desensitized to human life.

The last non-sports console game I bought that wasn't rated M was Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2. The funny thing about that is Rainbow Six: Vegas was rated M and the games are pretty much the same except Rainbow Six had cursing and Ghost Recon didn't.

Cursing, not violence, is the distinction between T and M in the case of those games. On the official descriptions, T may contain violence whereas M is for strong violence but I can't imagine that there was any difference in the levels of violence between the two games which also had no sexual content. Cursing is what done did it.


I actually wonder if there are any good games made now that aren't rated M?

Cursing is not the only part. Blood and gore is enough to make it an M game. Very slight amounts of blood (nosebleeds, small cuts/scrapes) aren't enough to make it M though if I recall correctly.
Yeah but I can't imagine how Rainbow Six was any more bloody than Ghost Recon. I could be wrong since it's been a while since I played them but those games were nearly identical. Cursing was the biggest difference that would affect ratings. I remember cursing clearly because it was mentioned a lot in previews and reviews and I got a little kick out of it at the time.

SC2 was rated T, I think. And Civ 5 (okay, not a good game), and Recettear, and Minecraft.

I hear Fox News recently made some absurd brouhaha about a game called Bulletstorm, claiming it would turn teenagers into rapists...solely because the game uses sexual names for certain ways of killing enemies.
