Why is it rated M?

It seems like a kids show to me.

    There were some scenes in episode 1 that are pretty fucked. Torn up cops with their throats torn over, sliced in half, and a certain moment in episode 2 is incredibly brutal. You're definition of kids stuff is disturbing.

  • I wouldn't say it kids but some seems rated T to me.

  • pretty sure the movie Batman vs Robin was way more violent than that

  • You obviously don't know what the restrictions for kids "shows" are.

    Yes.

  • Graphic violence and some light gore , neither of which is in 'kid shows.' Did you even play the game?

    The rating is fair honestly, it's not a gore fest by any means but the comparison to a kids show falls flat. Most that I remember (even ones that incorporate darker toned stories) barely have any blood in it and for obvious reasons.

    I feel like the assumption is being made that because it is a game with a non-photorealistic visual style it could somehow get away with a lower rating despite it's violence. I'll admit that I am basically desensitized to most of it but still the age rating is spot on imo.

  • Anyone else here love watching the old Scooby Doo Cartoons? Remember that time Fred got half his face burnt off? Good times.

  • Show me any scene in Batman and Robin that is more violent than this series, which as freelance said, contained a pretty graphic depiction of a man who died in an explosion. I mean, jeez, even with Freeze freezing people willy-nilly, nobody gets shattered.

    pretty sure the movie Batman vs Robin was way more violent than that

  • Not to mention the swearing, which includes "harsher" expletives like "shit" or "christ". Certainly words I wouldn't mind my 5-year-old cousin parroting. :V /s

  • I know what you mean dude, that shit is as kiddie as Adam West's Batman.

  • My favorite is The Secret of NIMH when the bad rat dude gets stabbed in the front then gets a dagger in the back.

  • Adam West's Batman was never that gruesome. There were never bullet to the heads in that show either.

  • Which part seemed like kid stuff to you? The brutally gory crime scene at the warehouse or the graphic death scene of the security guard and Bruce's parents?

  • Uh, I don't think so. I'd be very concerned if I saw children watching this.

  • batarangs in the eyes, bullet through the eye, bodies torn apart and cop with his face brain being blown by the bullet is childlish to you? I get that u are so mature and everything considering things you wrote under some people comments in this thread, but this game is fairly rated M.

  • Another difference is that Batman Vs Robin sucked balls.

    I can't fathom how they managed to mess up The Court of Owls.

  • Yo Christ is a swear word?
    Holy shit!

    If this isn't something kids would be afraid of, I don't know what is.

  • Because it's not for kiddies.

  • He might be referring to Batman Beyond?

  • Well, other than the Bane transformation scene and Dr. Woodrue pushing Dr. Isley into a buncha plants, there was nothing that violent.

  • Holy shit, I didn't even know that could happen if you didn't save Harvey. Could you please spoiler tag this??

  • Just did it.

  • Care to show us a particular scene more violent than anything shown in the game thus far?
