Rated M for Money - TV Tropes

When video gaming first started, almost all of the games created were playable by children. Not to say that early games weren't enjoyable by many adults (they were), they just lacked the mature themes that would be unsuitable for younger …

"M" rated games are not, in fact, guaranteed hits — only an average percentage of titles sell enough copies to be commercially successful, not at all much different from any other rating or genre in the market. Furthermore, general industry wisdom actually claims "T" for Teen is the most profitable rating, for the same reason that many movies target the PG-13 ratings bracket — these are the highest unrestricted rating of their respective scales, combining the most creative freedom with the broadest possible

I remember early builds having "holy shit" chants. I really hope they don't take it out.

I have to say if I had to choose between some gore or authentic crowd atmosphere, I would take the atmosphere, especially in a game with no commentary.

Legend has it that Moxley is bleeding every time that he is in a match in the game and that's not allowed. A limit of how much Moxley can bleed and he probably exceeded the allowed amount.

Instead of the ‘power meters’ that show a character’s strength sapping and replenishing, with Mox there’s an IV bag with blood in it that depletes as his matches go. When it finally empties, he just falls over dead, white as a sheet.

The ratings board, having seen a few Mox matches on TV, decided it was too realistic.

It would stop parents buying it for their kids. And they make a huge part of the video game industry.

it won’t stop parents - they buy gta for their little monsters

Women bleeding in wrestling games are a gateway drug to AR-13s. Good choice America.

 

[NapperX]

Give it an M rating and take my money lol.

 

[Boldgerg]

Just make it M ffs, kids will get it anyway and more adults will likely be interested if they can see it's not some ultra kid friendly WWE bullshit.

Numbers show a game released as t sells more then the same game sold as m.

Gta is one of the most popular games of all time. Other m rated games don't sell like it

 

[Geeee]

man an M-rated wrestling game could go so crazy with the story mode. Now I kinda want it

we can’t be comparing GTA to an unknown wrestling title.

"What's Mandy Rose doing in the locker room with Saraya?!?"

 

[La Parka]

I’ll buy it if it’s M.

ima set orange cassidy on fire and watch that little jean jacket burn

 

[PhenomenalOne11]

The game is going to be terrible, I don't know why anybody would bother buying it even if it's in the bargain bin.

 

[bdon]

Meh - let it drop with M

won’t stop literally anybody from buying it

Bingo. It will actually have the opposite effect, making people WANT to see what is what.

No it wouldn't. Again the rated m games people say sell good are the top 1%
This aew game won't sell 10% of any of those games.

M games do not bring sells. Again only the huge huge games sell well. Nosy m rated games done break even actually

Are kids really clamoring for an AEW game though?

I still remember when Esrb told state of decay devs this was nudity and tagged it as so in the release
