Re: Halo to have a teen rating?

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

: 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.

Indeed. I also find it odd that the question is "the object of the game" rather than what you can do in the game. In most games (I'm talking about FPS shooter games in particular) the game's objectives may be to aid people but most allow you to waste anything in sight - including innocent bystanders. Shouldn't this type of content contribute to the rating?
