everyone should be able to shoot everything.

This may be a wee bit off topic, but I just want to take a moment to analyze what I think gets games there ratings.

First, we have EC, which stands for early childhood. I'm guessing this is stuff like Dora the Explorer and baby puzzley games and stuff.

Then we have E, for everyone! This is pretty simple. Maybe a little bit of action, but it is usually pretty animated. Overall, it is pretty clean.

E10. Everyone 10 and up. This is pretty much like E, just a little more action packed, with maybe more fighting and violence. However, it is still not too much.

T for teen. Most of the games I play are this rating. These are usually very action packet, with perhaps some blood, mild language, and realism.

M for Mature. This is extremely action packed, likely with blood and/or gore, mild/very foul language, realism, and other items that may not be appropriate to post here.

There is also Adult Only, but I won't go into that.

Right now, our game falls right on the border between E10 and T. Personally, I think it is ok at E10, because the alcohol reference is just rum, which is something that could be worse. The simulated gambling isn't too bad because we are gambling gold rather than real money. That is probably what keeps us from going up to the T rating. Now, if we added guns in, that would add to realism and violence, which would for sure kick it up to a T rating. If we were to add blood to that, it would become M, but that will never happen.

Please forgive me if I strayed from the topic a little. Also, what I define as those ratings may not be the same as what you do.

Would it be raised to teen if you shot at someone and it looked the same as if you attack them with a sword? i mean that flash of light would be the same.

I like to think of it this way, Pirates didnt have a lot of guns back then. It was a little rare to see one and the guns back then were very inacurate. There are kids on this game and kids are easly manipulated. Go watch T.V. and look how many shows have guns and people shooting each other, they are not stabbing each other with knives, so in this day and age guns are little more popular and cooler thats why they have to be "monitored". I think, even though im one for guns, Disney is doing the right thing and trying to avoid lawsuits and stuff.

Plus even in the movies you dont see blood and guts even when people get killed by the sword you dont ever see it. I dont think its a very "family fun" movie when Disney would show all those little details.
