In Halo 1 and 2 there were some great lines mostly funny. Like when a grunt gets stuck or something ... but the marines every few minutes throw out a curse word... which is not needed in a game like Halo! I doubt that Bungie will just stop using that kind of language in there games because they have done it in both Halo 1/2, but I wish they would stop that (in H3) or hopefully Joseph Staten would get fired or SOMETHING to stop it... lol. What do you people think about this?

It doesn't have to be rated Mature... if it didn't have cursing in it... Halo 1,2 would probably be rated T

if you're fighting aliens, would you stop to say, "oh dear!"

i think not.

cursing is a part of life. i'll be fine if halo 3 has cursing as long as it doesn't go all the way up to the level that gta san andreas or games like that have.

Ok supposing that games are really FUN not REAL. you think Half-Life 2 would have sold as many coppies as it did if you took the physics model out of it?

A: it is rated mature
B: real marines swear, so it adds some legitimacy to the game

I like how we have one guy whose sole job is to design the Chief's visor.
I bet it's the envy of the guy who designs the Chief's ass plate.

Listen to this and this (both are outtakes from Halo) to realise why there is cursing.

Lets put you with an SMG infront of an elite, some grunts and 2 hunters. I think you would say some pretty foul language. The game should stay the same in this respect, because even though realisim isn't really the Halo style, they need a bit.

Also, these are the UNSC badass marines, not Suzies flower patrol...
Coarse language is needed, to put you in the mood to pwn covies and flood (and maybe humans...).

just think if Halo 3 was lowered down to T rating... sales would go higher than they have been! For BF2 (PC version) they kept there rating at T on purpose in order to increase the number of sales. I think more games should have more options for turning blood/ language ect. off in games. Many games have the ability to "turn off blood", but hardly any have had the option to turn off foul language in Single Player.

Its not up to Bungie to give it its rating.....Its up to the ESRB or something.

Theres a reason why thats not in most console games.
consoles have a pre-set limit to how much crap it can render at one time.
with PC's? Hell I saw a Mac G5 with 16Gb of RAM. (NOTE: It wasn't a server)

I know that, but Bungie can leave out the bad stuff so ESRB will rate it T

or maybe there could be a new "NC-17"-esque rating from the ESRB. only maybe NC-14 or something. we'd have to do some surveys to find the exact age to draw the line.

"It is a poor soldier who insists on seeing things not as they are, but as he wants them to be. One day reality hits, and his illusions fail him, and he dies stupidly. What honor is there in that?"
-Thel 'Vadam

this topic should lay down and die. if an army of aliens came down and attacked earth marines would be saying alot worse things than whats heard in halo campagin and like one of the other people said it puts you into the mood and make the marines or somtimes elites (yes ive heard elites swear) seem more "human". so if you dont like the language...dont buy halo plain and simple.

I have nothing to say except that this is probably the most retarded thread I have ever laid eyes on... even the REALLY dumb ones haven't gotten me as pissed off as I am right now... I am inclined to start using "curse words", but obviously that offends the Puritan.
