All you have ta do to get a rating is show the worst parts in the game,
so bungie could have just showed those parts it doesnt mean
the games done. just that they got the issue of getting it rated done.

No they dont only grade final copies. In the ESRB FAQ it states that they view clips of the worst parts of games and give it a rating from that. THEN, when the game is finished, they make sure the rating is placed correctly on the packaging. This implies the game does not need to be finished to be rated.

However, let em dream legend. Screw that, let me dream, we all want it, no matter how unlikely it is

not true the company sends in a video that shows what the worst parts are and a panel of 3 judges decied the rating, then when the games finished the company brings the gold version/copy in and esrb makes sure the original rating fits then it goes directly into mass production so SUCK ON THAT

dont trip bro, I mean, I dont really give a $hit about whats happening, if h2 comes out on august 24th, then it comes out on august 24th. If h2 comes out on november 9th, then it comes out on november 9th. All of you need to learn some patience because it doesn't matter when h2 comes out, as long is it DOES come out. Feel me people?

This has been brought up before. The ESRB can put a rating on an unfinished game. And no 7/8/04 is not September 8th, its July 8th. Off by a couple moths there.

  • 07.25.2004 2:43 PM PDT

[color=white]Here's the pertinent part of the ESRB FAQ:

To get a game certified with an ESRB rating, publishers fill out a detailed questionnaire explaining exactly what's in the game, and submit it to ESRB along with actual videotaped footage of the game, showing the most extreme content and an accurate representation of the context and product as a whole. Working independently, three trained raters then view the game footage and recommend the rating and content descriptors they believe are most appropriate. ESRB then compares the raters' recommendations to make sure that there's consensus. Usually, the raters agree and their recommendation becomes final. However, when the raters recommend different ratings, additional raters may be requested to review the game in order to reach broader consensus. Once consensus on a rating and content descriptors is reached, ESRB issues an official rating certificate to the game's publisher.
When the game is ready for release to the public, publishers send copies of the final product to the ESRB. The game packaging is reviewed to make sure the ratings are displayed in accordance with ESRB standards. Additionally, ESRB's in-house game experts randomly play the final games to verify that all the information provided during the rating process was accurate and complete.

Do with it what you will.[/color]
