I think that this game is ok for ten year olds. although it has some some blood alien blood is blue and human blood is red and very little (no gore) your character masterchief never talks however and you do not hear much of language only when a other soldier gets injured or something like that. let ur kids get the game its frikin aleins people aleins not people your killing.

What Parents Need to Know
This review of Halo 3 was written by Marc Saltzman
Parents need to know that this adult game has been hyped by a massive advertising campaign that extends to normally kid-friendly establishments like Burger King and 7-Eleven. But the ESRB gave this first-person shooter game a "Mature" rating for violence for good reason. Throughout the game, players shoot aliens and humans using a variety of weaponry, and they'll see vivid images with blood. And know that when the Halo games are played online, players can communicate -- and curse -- via headsets.
Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what makes the Halo games so popular. How are they different than other sci-fi shooters? For kids who want to play but have parents who put their foot down: What made you want to play this game? Why do you think Burger King and Mountain Dew helped tell kids about the game when the rating isn't T for "Teen" or E for "Everyone"?

What’s the Story?
Is It Any Good?
The extraordinary high-definition graphics, which include many non-interactive cinematic story sequences, push the limits of the Xbox 360. Thousands of lines of dialogue and a Hollywood-quality epic musical score also help you become immersed in this slickly produced sci-fi thriller. So whether you're an old fan or new to this franchise, Halo 3 is a must-own game for mature action or sci-fi lovers. Its gratifying solo campaign and many multiplayer modes, new features (including co-op play), and high production values all ensure that Halo 3 will live up to expectations.

BAD GAME KIDS WOULD LIKE
I hate halo, but kids would like it so its pretty good for kids. i agree that it was rated m so it wouldnt lose its older audience. i have only played it once at my freinds house and find it somewhat boring. get odst because of new maps

Why isn't this rated T?
Because it would lose a lot of its older audience, this game was rated M. There are no S words said in this game, D*** is said maybe 3 times and Hell maybe 6. There is hardly any blood in single player mode and almost none in multiplayer splitscreened mode.
