Rating: strong-caution

Extreme violence is much bloodier and gorier than the original Resistance: Fall of Man. Player kills thousands of aliens. Aliens kills hundreds of human soldiers and scientists. Strong profanity including the s-word, God’s name used in vain. Scantily clad women inside the instruction manual.

Some crude humor: Sims emit flatulence, and wet themselves if no toilet is available or offered.

Mild sexual content: The Sims often interact socially, which can sometimes lead to mild flirtation or more intimate encounters. Players can choose to "try for a baby" or "WooHoo" with another Sim. These two actions cause the selected avatars to jump into bed and go under the covers, where they wriggle, giggle, and moan until confetti bursts over the bed.

Mild violence Sims will sometimes get in fights with other sims.

Nudity: bathing, and using the toilet, which is depicted by a blurred, pixilated effect

Immorality and Lawlessness: multi-partnered casual sex, same sex relationships, divorce, lies, theft and affairs as things to be aspired to.

Death: As in real life, Sim characters can die of old age; they can also die as a result of neglect or starvation. Certain animations depict the avatars dying in fires, drowning in pools, and getting electrocuted by household appliances.

The Undead: Sometimes you will see an Occasional zombies in houses and Graveyards, or even ghosts that haunt the sims.

Comic Mischief, Fantasy Violence, Mild Language
Ghostbusters The Videogame is an action game in which players hunt, fight, and capture waves of ghosts and other fantastical creatures, including the ’Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.’ Players stun or immobilize enemies with ’Proton Pack’ wands, which often emit a gel-like substance or laser beam effect. Battle is constant and frenetic, often causing environmental damage such as the destruction of libraries, museums, offices and other public areas. The game includes several references to bathroom humor (e.g., “…he just passed gas…” and “boiling bowels”), tongue-in-cheek suggestive dialogue (e.g., “I miss the bars, adult shops, and bookstores.”), and some profanity (e.g., “b*tch” and “hell”).

This is side-scrolling platformer game in which players control the title character as he explores levels, collects gems, and solves puzzles, while trying to save the state of dreams. Enemies can be grabbed and tossed at one another, or in certain areas, used to traverse distances or break obstacles. Bosses howl in pain and fall to the ground when defeated. During one sequence, a villain destroys a character's house with a giant laser beam, resulting in an explosion and the dramatic death of the character. An older character is depicted with a pipe in his mouth and a tobacco-like substance in the bowl.

Violence: Enemies, both human and mutant, can be decapitated and/or dismembered, with large blood and goo spray (often in slow motion), and some enemies scream in agony.

Language: 7 uses of s**t, and 1 of “Oh my God”, d**n, and “Holy Mother of God!”.

Other Issues: The games’ atmosphere is dark, and your character starts out as nothing more than a morally ambivalent assassin.
