Sweet, I remember in Jan 99 (if I got the month correctly) I bought the PC Gamer for the demo disc of the Predator demo and promptly got my ass handed to me and loved it!

Good work Rebellion. I really like their attitude toward this and I think the industry taking this stance rather than pandering to the OFLC is the correct approach to take.

Alex C:
Predator 2 was about as coarse and gory as mainstream Hollywood get-- it required several cuts to avoid the NC-17 kiss of death-- yet it only warrants an M rating by OFLC standards. Same deal with Aliens; gore aside, it's a singularly relentless film once it gets rolling, and Bishop's fate* has probably been nightmare fodder for plenty of kids out there. I understand that some people hold that video games should be held to a higher standards due to the interactive nature of the medium, but I'm still rather curious as to where exactly they are drawing the line. It's hard not to suspect a bit of a double standard here.


*That bit should be exhibit A for how fucking insane it is to act like a scene is somehow less violent or disturbing just because the viscera isn't red.

KharBevNor:
I dunno everything that happens to Bishop is a tiptoe through the tulips compared to everything involving androids in Alien.
