15 isn't Mature, I guess this game won't be as brutal as people claim. http://www.strategyinformer.com/news/14291/the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim-rated-15-by-bbfc-strong-violence

Germany, Australia and the US will probably give a "Mature" rating. As far as I know the UK are more liberal towards violence in games/movies.

Great news

Well there is no severed limbs or heads, or graphic six/nudity, so if that's what it takes to be 'brutal' than I guess you're out of luck.

Huh, well I was getting pumped for it being an 18 .... that's weird (as all the gaming stores are advertising it as an 18). I don't really mind either way. :smile:

So No Beheading or Limbs flying about with Blood Spewing Everywhere or Cursing or Serious six and Same Date Love with Dragons Roasting your Flesh away, well Skyrim is Definitely Childsplay then. :celebration:

Oblivion (at least GOTY edition) had a BBFC rating.

They rate all different types of media .

It's good that they weren't forced to make cuts.

This. If this is Bethesda's indented experience, then I'm sure it will be good. (And it will be 'M' here, no doubt.)

Yes, BBFC (British Board of Film Classification) is mostly for movies.

PEGI is for video games.

Don't let the Irish hear you calling them that... :bolt:

Considering that Germany just barely unbanned the original Doom, will Skyrim even be allowed there?

So we shouldn't wait on PEGI? The 18 rating was a little premature.

Wasn't Oblivion and Morrowind originally rated T?

Most of my games don't have PEGI ratings, Oblivion GOTY(PS3) was just rated by the BBFC.
