Metal Gear Solid games are rated M and they have just as ,uch blood and less cursing then Uncharted. Maybe mgs games should just be rated T.

metal gear solid also has very mature themes in it.

look at the common pg13 movie, swearing sex and violence are all allowed throughout for the msot part. plus if you havnt noticed esrb is getting a little more leanient. m rated games last gen barely had any blood and gore, mainly because the systems couldnt do it so well. look even farther back at duke nukem.

the blood isnt really that real looking or noticable. a 13 year old would learn nothing new from this game.

Maybe cause mgs has all the homoerotic undertones and crotch grabby goodness. I kinda felt Uncharted should have gotten an M but oh well. I'd love to see a sequel where Eddy Raja comes back as a mutated thingy.

I've been wondering about that and I think its because the ESRB has gone soft. They used to rate games M for less in the past.

I know this may sound kind of dumb, but I think I would have liked the game more if it were more gory, like blood splatter against the walls and bullet wounds on the bodies. Then it would be rated "M".

It's because they left out the F-bomb.

Although it did have a few "female dogs" and "crap" naughty words sprinkled in.:P

i think that the reason Uncharted isn't rated M is because there isn't much blood in there, also there is no body dismemberment (i think thats the correct word) and most importantly no overly hot babe. I mean if Naughty Dog had made elena a Ultra hot girl and added a bit more violence then it would have been rated M but there's just much content to jutify an M rating. well that's my opinion.

Personally, I think Uncharted could have gone either way, but MGS is a deffinate M. Why? It's all in the context. Uncharted is often compared to Indiana Jones-type story/gameplay/setting etc. and I don't recall an Indy film ever getting an 18+ rating despite the romance and gunplay involved.
Metal Gear Solid on the other hand is a different story. A few examples should speak for themselves: sexual themes/encounters, groin grabs, and in Snake Eater, you can slit throats. That last one on its own deserves an M - blood or not.

Does it matter if it was rated 'T' or 'M'??? Nope...just as long as the game is great...and indeed it is...
