When I was 13, and now im 14, I knew all the swears....its just kinda awkward when one of my parents walks in and hears sarge....lol Anyways, I played Butcher Bay, it was an awsome game, and there was gore on/off, but no censoring. If you have played Metal Arms: Glitch in the System, they bleep it out, and its pretty funny...but they could make it downloadable content, but I dont see why they would turn off swears in an M rated game. At least the arent saying f***. I dont see why halo was ever rated M though, most likely from the flood.(I like the flood though, I dont want them out), he was right, it is about as violent as star wars, maybe less, as there is no missing limbs. And I dont see HOW anyone could say they used halo to practice sniping, even if this is an old issue. Theres a fine line between sniping with a controller and a screen, and sniping with a real gun, with real recoil. I don't see why a 4 year old would even understand how to play halo though...I played doom when I was 4, but halo takes strategy....sometimes....
