Hmmmm. I was looking at the ratings for some of the old ff games, and lot of them were rated M! Now the ff games are rated T.
What does that mean??

That means that Square Enix is smart. They took some more controversial stuff out of their games so that the games can be purchased by anyone. If a game is rated "Mature" then you must have parents' consent. That makes it harder for the kid to buy it.

Ohhhh.
Hmmm. For a moment I thought it might mean that the definition of 'mature' and 'teen' got somewhat closer in meaning. I mean, not as in mature behavior, but as in mature content. Like... if you talk to the teens today, it's like 'woah, watch your launguage,' or 'wow, you know about that stuff (sex)?'

Really, from the way my mom sees it, she thinks teens shouldn't be going out, they shouldn't cuss (because obviously she's unaware that that happens A LOT), etc.

I think it means that games these days are more violent than FF, thus pushing the rating down a notch.

If you think about it, the only bad thing in the games is fantasy violence and swearing. it's practically in any non-family friendly game these days.

I think FF as a whole is tailored to teens so the rating fits the games perfectly. It isn't the happy go lucky crystal finding ffs of years past, the dark and more complex tones have taken over, and I like it.

Yeah, me too!!! Dx

I fell in love with Tales of Symphonia 2 and Brawl, but that's pretty much all I like so far. And we need Sony to unite with Nintendo, but I doubt it'll happen anytime soon.

There's a new tales of game being made at the moment (codename: Tales of Ten). I know a few games that might interest you, but unfortunately it means I have to go searching for their names on gt.com, and I'm not too fused about doing that.

With games like Grand Theft Auto and Resident Evil around, putting Final Fantasy next to them is like putting Barney next to bender scratch I remember when games like the Legend of Zelda and even Mario and Sonic games were blamed for all kinds of violence.

Mario's feet have been called one of the deadliest weapons ever created.
