I thought it was an 18+ but I saw it with a 12 rating so which 1 is it?

this will determine whether I get it or not 'cause Im not yet 18

I was pretty sure it was a 15, or an M in America. The sex shouldn't raise it cos Farenheit had it and that was a 15.

The game is rated M for Mature. Here in the United states game ratings are, or should be, taken seriously. Little kids tend to blame their stupid actions on video games. Parents don't take responsibility for what their retarted children do in the first place.

Mature in the USA (M) is 17, not 18.kcm_117

our (UK) rating system is fickle. We have both the BBFC and PEGI, however the BBFC are law meaning you cannot buy that piece of media without being that age. While PEGI are just advisery, technicly you dont need to be that age but shops still wont sell it to you without ID proving you are that age.
