I guess with Halo, you're shooting guns at mostly aliens, so it's not as bad. One could argue it's just as violent, but I'd let my kids play long before the hand-to-hand slaughter of humans.

I've gotten to the point where the blood and violence don't bother me too much...when it's a shooting/military type game. - Jim Apr 13, 10:58 15

- Yeah, everything's at a far lower level than GTA's 'violence-for-violence's sake' level of mindless brutality. - Dr.Vermin Apr 13, 11:01 1
  - lol classic. It's tough out there for a parent. Our nephew has Assassin's Creed...i think I'll just check it out over there and decide. - Jim Apr 13, 11:03
- the beginning of AC2 might disturb them, but not for violence. (spoils) - Beryllium Apr 13, 10:59 10
