Posts: 78 Group: Zombie Member #153 Joined: 07/17/07	If for some reason, Capcom and Nude Maker decide to port TFF to some console or handheld, or if they decide to put it up on the Virtual Console (any of the regions), what ESRB rating would the game approximate to? I personally think that TFF would best go into Teen. While there are satanic themes, disturbing images and plot, some violent deaths (Ann's foyer death, Laura's shower death), and a sadistic stalker - Bobby - there's not a lot of gore and blood, especially when compared to the sequel. The only blood there is would be the bleeding painting in the TV room, Ending F, the bloody sink haunting, the crow room, the crow in the ritual room, the meat locker, the beating heart...I believe that's all the blood and gore in the game. It's pretty minimal IMHO when compared to the sequel - there's Rose's deaths, Professor Sullivan and the university guards' decapitations, Rick's deaths, Beth and Tim's barrel deaths...to me, they are much more violent and bloody than the blood and gore of TFF's.

Nakanaide... Posts: 75 Group: Zombie Member #196 Joined: 10/06/07 Gender: Female ♀	I say "M", as well. As the content is tame, a game about kids getting killed is definitely going to send the ESRB up in arms, and with the animal cruelty (dead crows), satanic themes, and whatnot...that's not going to fly into just being a 'teen' rated game, I think.

♥ Bloody Mary ♥ Posts: 369 Group: Entity Member #90 Joined: 03/27/07	I think the game deserves a teen rating. You won't see a single drop of blood in the whole game except for two scenes (3 if you count the PS version.) Though I think an M rating is also possible if ever it will be released for the virtual console, due of the nature of the girls deaths.

Poor Dan... Posts: 1,005 Group: Hospital Director Member #85 Joined: 03/20/07 Gender: Female ♀	I always thought it was teen, but I'm not too sure.
	I know, it's generic and unoriginal, but...

Posts: 1,243 Group: Hospital Director Member #73 Joined: 03/13/07	It would be mature, or censored of some things to put it at T maybe...I'm not sure, we are talking some hard core themes.

Don't eat my pizza! Posts: 737 Group: Detective Member #93 Joined: 03/29/07 Gender: Female ♀	I'd say Teen. While there is blood, its just not graphic enough, nor are the game graphics all that much. Even my little sister was allowed to watch me play and my mom's really picky about that stuff, so I really can't see it getting higher than a T-rating.

Don't Fear the Retro Posts: 1,466 Group: Hospital Director Member #31 Joined: 01/03/07 Gender: Male ♂	Not sure on this one. Its possible it would be 'T', then again seeing how strict things are now a days, its possible that it could be 'M'.

Hiding amongst Amish Posts: 1,066 Group: Hospital Director Member #68 Joined: 03/11/07	That´s why the game is so good! It´s got animal cruelty, satanic rituals, alot of girls dyeing horrible deaths.. All that good stuff that are considered either FUBAR or tabu today. T rating. Because you never see blood except for a few parts, and because it´s pixelated too..

Because it's a confusing name. Posts: 92 Group: Zombie Member #59 Joined: 03/02/07 Gender: Male ♂	I would give it a T, but with the ESRB all up in a craze after Manhunt 2, it would probably get an M anyway...

Hiding amongst Amish Posts: 1,066 Group: Hospital Director Member #68 Joined: 03/11/07	Rated M for mature... Because that they kill people... And show satanic symbols... <-- My guess as to why they would do that..

Mmm... Rubber~ Posts: 862 Group: Detective Member #144 Joined: 07/02/07 Gender: Male ♂	Writes down question on notepad titled 'Questions to ask Hifumi' Hmm... for when it was released, Mature. After all, they didn't bring it to the US. But for the VC, I'm not too sure. It's not too graphically advanced, but there is a share of blood, religious reference, and and few other things that would bump it up to M. Still not sure, though...
