    Mmy ten year old keeps bugging me to play this game. He's big into the fantasy stuff. I have told him he can't due to the ratings but during my time I heavily played this game I can't really think of many instances where an M rating should have been given. Perhaps frightening scenes? Can anyone refresh my non-existent memory?

    I've played the entire game, including the Shivering Isles expansion pack...Quite frankly I don't REALLY see where it would have been Teen other than fighting and alcohol use lol.

    I played this game so much and this game should have been rated T.

    So you should just let your son play IMO.

    If anything he'll probably just find it complicating at times.

    Perhaps the dark imagery or violence made it Rated M. Personally, I wouldn't say it was anything more that T. There's no foul language that I can recall. It's not like GoW or Army of Two.
