Halo1+2 Appropriate for a teen?

I'm setting up this thread to find out just how violent Halo1+2 are. I am not alloud to play either game, because I am under the age of 17🙄 .I would like to play the game because everyone loves it and I would really like your help. How violent is the game, and would I be alloud to play it. PLease give a rating on how violent the game is and would it be appropriate for children under 17? 😕

There is no violence...only images of violance. There isn't really anything gore about both Halo titles. You basically shoot around a bunch of weird looking creatures called the Flood. Now on the other hand I really don't see why the game is rated M. Actually, for me rating video games is stupid.

I'll probably say the game is fine for ages 13-16 years old.

But I really don't see that way. I let my 8 year nephew play it when he feels like it.

yea...it's rated M, but shouldn't be 😕 I could name dozens of games rated T that are more violent

Actually the game is rather violent.... a lot of blood comes out of the little buggers and the flood if you look real close are composed of body parts 😂 yet i have seen far violenter games.... humans do not shed too much blood unless you take a malee at them on the floor.

Most of the gore/blood is from the aliens though, and it's obvious enough that it's not real, which is what a Mature rating normally will get its rating for..."Realistic Violence/Blood/Gore", and Halo is anything but realistic

So true... it may also be the "I can't have it, so I'll get it" factor among kids.. they want what they can't have. Probably not as much, but still.

go here for the thread on how violent it is :http://www.killermovies.com/forums/f66/t310734.html

I've played both, my younger brother who's 13 loves playing Halo 2 with me so I dont see what the huge deal is anyway.

thx a lot you guys please send in more posts (make it more convincing) 😄

I have a six year old brother who plays it to so tongue

i agree this game shoudn't be taken to seriously with the rating because there is only little areas of violence e.g only if you look carefully at the flood you can see that they are made of various body parts.
halo 1 and 2 rock and i play them over and over.

pff.. my nephews n nieces play it.. and they range from 7 to 15

as long as you arent gonna go pulling triggers up in your neighborhood, who gives a hell if its violent?

hey for my mom's sanity, could you not use bad language?

You can't play Halo 1 and 2 because you are under 17?

Hahahaa

It so sucks for you!!!

Most good games are 17 rated or above...

Not really that violent. I'm 16 'n I play it in front of my mom, and even when I put my baby sister to sleep. She falls a sleep to Halo 2 almost every night, and she has yet to show signs of aggression that didn't exist before she started watching me play. In fact, most of the time I give her a controller. She's only 1.

Tch...Halo 1 and 2 aren't even violent shotting games!!!

Quake or Unreal Tournament are violent shotting games..

Halo games don't really have any gore...sure there is blood but you know....

I use to play Turok when I was little...that was more violent than Halo also....

violence would be like dismemberment or disembowlment or overly excessive bleeding.. halo has none of the above.
