Gears 2 lets mommy filter out blood and swearing

This reminds me of one time when me and a few friends were playing Halo 2 a while back and there was a little kid in our party and we were doing superbounces. This little kid asked us how we jumped so high and no one wanted to explain it so we didn't tell him so he went and got his mom and she cussed us out... it was hilarious. Little kids just shouldn't be able to play these games, there is no reason to put these features on M rated games.

It's easier than complaining. Guide Button>Player List>Mute.

Heh. Reminds me of a time when some guy in an old clan got his mom and the microphone.. The whole clan was like.. "What *****? You're a *****. *****." It was.. interesting haha.

First of all...

I don't think that Microsoft should censor this game like that. If the parents don't want there 8 year old kid to play an M rated game then don't let them play it. Don't just turn the blood into sparks and censor out the language. If the parents will let there 8 year old play a game like this, sparks or no sparks, sounds like bad parenting. If there 8 year old kid wants violence in there gaming experience go pick up a copy of Viva Pinata. You can wack your pinatas with a shovel all you want.

What's wrong with having an option?
Just makes the game even better.

I hated hosting with content on. Blood would get everywhere too quick to see on my own screen. It's just something good to have available.

Maybe someone wants to play gears, but they have to let their brother or sister stay in the same room? Turn it off content, instead of the xbox.
