i'll tell you y i wouldnt get it for you if you were my kid....i understand the whole gaming as a hobby thing, hell i play alot of games myself, but anyone that will have a miserable life cause of not haveing a game...dude grow up, then maybe you'll get it...if you show your parents your more adult than they think you are.....or if its that bad, save the money and just dont tell them you bought it.

Zone Hunter, Probably not. Look, my parents won't even let me own ANYTHING! I play feverishly at friend's houses. Who cares if you get it? It's not my place.

Hey just talk to ur parents about it...show them that Halo 1 is also a M game. SHow them that the only reason the game is going to be M is because of violence and language...or what ever else. u get worse on daytime TV.

Just say that you have a option to turn off blood or get into a agruement about them still treating you like a kid and make them feel guilty. Say its either i play this or do drugs which one is it EH?

tell them that you are not killing people you are killing aliens that have purple and orange blood. That should work.

I've had nightmares about this. But listen, I truthfully Don't think Halo 1 should have been rated "M". I think they did that so people would think it's not just another kid's game.

I mean what's the worst stuff in the game? Shooting 5 foot tall aliens? Blowing up stuff that looks like diarrea? Honestly, it's not that bad. Let him get the game.

My parents didn't want me to get halo. They regret even letting me get an xbox! But then my friend got me it for my birthday. So do what I do, get for your birthday from a friend. Or get for christmas from a friend.

dude, that blows, im fifteen too and my mom pre ordered the limited edition halo 2 for me in July because I was looking forward to it. Try rellling them something like I aleady have the first one already so whats the point of leaving me without the second one. It'll send em on a guilt trip and they'll probably get it for you.... if all else fails, BEG!!
