Well they are rated M because there is blood and language in the game and sometimes gore. It is usually referred to as a "tame" M game because you are not killing people but protecting the earth. But really it depends what halo you are talking about because in halo 1 blood can be easily turned off. If your trying to convince your parents to let you get the game just tell them it is no more violent than Star Wars,as for the language it's usually just stuff like damn.
EDIT BY OTHER USER: I think it should have been rated T to be honest. It's no more violent then Goldeneye 007, And certainly is not gory, I honestly dont even know why they said gore. It is also a very fun multiplayer game, honestly the best multiplayer value I've seen out of an FPS game. Because of this, I hate how the ESRB rating team rated it M, because then early teens probably wont be allowed to play much of the Halo series, when it's barely Explicit at all, not at all M level!
I think all the Halo games (like halo reach) match your idea of an okay M rated game
All 6 games (Halo; Halo 2; Halo 3; Halo Wars; Halo 3: ODST; Halo: Reach) are rated M for mature due to the intense violence and adult language. The Halo 3 content is rated by the ESRB as M for Blood and gore, violence, language and partial nudity.
because people may be disturbed by some of the content in the games.
halo wars is rated teen
I know a few. The halo series.
Halo Reach has already been rated M for blood and violence.
It is rated M

It contains blood and violence. However when Halo is compared to games like Gears of War, COD series, ect.. it should be rated T.
No. All Halo titles have been rated M for Mature.
If you are looking for violence in games that are not M rated you should get Final Fantasy games. If you are allowed to play M games you should get Manhunt, Bioshock, or any of the Halo games.
