Destiny is rated T for Teen (Destiny)

Or so says Polygon.

Was anyone here ever affected by Halo's M rating? I never was and I certainly started playing it a bit before I "should have." Destiny's T rating amuses me though, since I now have a piece of fan fiction higher rated than the game it's based on. :)

I always thought M was a little high for Halo. Other than the kinda gross flood, they didn't really do much on gore, and there wasn't much profanity to speak of (Xbox live is another thing). I've kinda viewed Halo on the same level as Star Wars. Both bluelings have been playing Halo from an early age and they're both...well, they might not be the best example.

It was the Flood that earned Halo that M.

It was actually the political climate, post 9/11, I believe. You can still find images of the Halo: CE box art with a T-rating out there in the wild. Or on Google.
