Element Lord of Milk Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 I've never played a halo game(No Xbox)but for a while I was quite into the Mega bloks sets they had, and i messed around on the wiki and found that the story was actually quite good.So i entered a contest(Again related to MB)to win an Xbox and all the halo games(I didn't win unfortunately)and I ended up asking my mom if she would ever let me play halo even though it was rated M, she said no.But after watching a complete Playthrough of reach, there really isn't much blood, no corpses can be gibbed, and there really isn't much blood, and even then it's just small spatters around. I've played brink and it has about the same amount of violence, but it's rated T.So What does everyone think about why Halo is rated M?~ELM~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ehksidian Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 My theroy:Well, many people today consider the lower rating for age a game has, the worse it is. Which is why Super Smash Bros series is T, when it really isn't that bad.Halo isn't as bad either. The worst is the Flood, and that's it. I mean, you kill aliens. You don't spear them, rip out ther guts and stuff, do you? You simply shoot them, unless you have an energy sword. And if you ave that, all it does is go through them and come out. Not much blood. IF I were to rate Reach and ODST, they would be T, but the ones with the Flood... eh, barely M. In fact, my friend had Fall Of Reach, and in the back it showed an ad for Combat Evolved. IT was rated T. So yeah, Halo is more of a borderline thing. [/rant] Quote Steam name: Ehksidian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Element Lord of Milk Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Yeah, I suppose the flood are probably what pushes it over, i've seen a few places with The first game rated T as well, but then some others where it's M, interestingly.Was there a dispute on ratings at one point?~ELM~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IamJackssplitpersonality Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Halo was voluntarily pushed to an M rating by Bungie, I believe. There's nothing in the game that actually constitutes an M rating, Bungie just felt that it was meant for an older audience. Quote I want you to hit me as hard as you can.

Bundalings Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Fifth Terminal > waaahtSo about 95+/- thousand years ago a ship crashed on Installation 04. It was short range. No one ever came out. Guilty Spark could not figure out who it was or how they survived the Halo event.MUST KNOW MOREI've found a few Skulls, but unfortunately it seems if you are playing with a friend, only the one that picks it up gets it. And on subsequent playthroughs it does not appear if one of the players has already obtained it. This means that even though I have found three Skulls, I only have one. =/ Quote I want to THRIVE Not just survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoney the raptor Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 what is anniversaries match making like? does it used the armoury from reach or something else altogether? I as this because Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bundalings Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 It has the same armory, but the only maps you can use with Anniversary are the new ones, unfortunately. You'll need Reach for the bulk of the matchmaking experience. Anniversary comes with a download code so you can get the Anniversary map pack and play all the maps from the Reach disc.

stoney the raptor Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Does that include the map packs?Anyone else having a tough time with people on reach it seems that I'm getting alot of betrayal splatters from people diving in front of me as im driving from A to B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rausaro Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 (edited) I saw all the Terminals. Does anyone else get the impression the enemy is actually The Didact and the Prometheans? He's referred to in the present tense, and when it all fades out, you see his symbol pop up before it's swallowed by flames. Also, what's this about a contingency protocol if humans gain control of a ring? (Supposedly the new book has humans at Halo Ring #3) I'm conviced the Timeless one will be an enemy, but he be the "Suprise" of Halo 4, like the Flood were in Halo?

Sir Ptolemic Of Zyglak Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 The thing with the challenges though is that it will hopefully help gamers like me who play multiple games, including CoD (not anymore though, MW3 was a huge dissapointment) and Battlefield. By the time Halo 4 comes out, I still won't be an Inheritor. But so far, I'm really pleased with how Halo CEA turned out:) the new firefight map is my new favorite for firefight, and it's good to play the campaign again as well.

Bundalings Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Today in matchmaking I saw a guy that was leaving behind a trail of flames. Not a flaming head. A trail of flames, stretching about two meters behind him whenever he walked. I haven't heard anything about new armor effects, or new armor anything. Anyone know about it? I played a couple games with him but I haven't reviewed the films. A 343 exclusive thing, maybe? Quote I want to THRIVE Not just survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ektris Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Umm, were you playing Power Slayer? Because that's one of the effects you get to show you have a "power up" when you get a kill.

Bundalings Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I think one of the games was Anniversary Slayer on Breakneck and the other was Slayer on Ridgeline.

Krakash Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Yeah. If it was the new maps, I think they have put in at least 2 powerups of different types on the new maps. I found the Invisibility Power Up (whatever it's called, it's pretty neat) and I saw that trailing flames power up and I had the pleasure of being killed by a user of it on Headlong.I found the other two power ups on Timberland or whatever it's called, so I would assume it's the same with the other maps. Or maybe not? I was playing Big Team Slayer and Big Team CTF. Quote I'm sort of half-really-not-back. Again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crunchyn Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 (edited) Anniversary is awesome. I'm sorry but since I saw the Halo 4 teaser, I just kept thinking "ZOM , it's Mass Effect" seriously, I think Halo and Mass Effect makes for a great combination even though Master Chief would own in that universe lol.And also, even though no one would admit it, the rated-M would most likely be for online play LOL BEWARE WHEN YOU ENTER THE INTERWEBS OV MATCHMAKING XD Edited November 19, 2011 by CrunchbiteNuva Quote "I could have been a Protector but then I took a stud to the feet."

Sadly, my mom has refused to let us get XBL, since it is basically a swearhole, and she doesn't take kindly to people swearing at her children while playing simple video games.So I'm restricted to offline play with my siblings(SKYRIM), Forge is pretty much useless unless you have XBL, so Firefight becomes the most played gametype (or custom games, if you're more into that). -Skar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
