Re: Halo to have a teen rating?

In Response To: Re: Halo to have a teen rating? (Matt)

: In Halo, humans bleed red blood. We submitted the game to the ESRB
: and they had some questions, but once we assured them that the goal
: of the game is not to kill humans but to save them they gave us the
: Teen rating. Their only other question was the language used in the
: game (i.e. do the voice actors cuss up a storm) but we had no problems
: there either. It was a very painless, logical process.

But what about multiplayer? Isn't the objective sometimes to kill humans there?

This does demonstrate my problems with the ESRB fairly well though. They tend to rely on the developer to submit tapes that are representative of the game's content and to answer questions truthfully. If anyone wants, I can post my rant about the ESRB's inequity and how they've improved a lot in the past few months.
