this a nintendo game, which means that it is reated very carefully and has been tested and observed by parents before its release. It is rated teen, as in over 13 years old. Let your kid have this game if he is over 13. That's how the system works. 13+ is ok if your kid is 13+ years old. See? Kinda cool huh? Weird how that works... >_<

There is major shooting creature violence basically through the whole entire game, which is why the game is rated T. There is also some cussing present, but isn't as serious as the violence.

The Metroid Prime series is truly an amazing series of games. I've played and beaten Metroid Prime 1 and 2 for the GameCube and 3 for the Wii. All three games have stunning graphics, amazing plots, the best female protagonist ever, diverse levels and creatures, and great elements of solving puzzles. This particular installment is on the Wii which means...motion controls!! And let me tell you, this really adds to the game. I definitely recommend this game and series to anyone who enjoys playing video games and is somewhat bright!

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is a great game for teens and some mature pre-teens. It uses the Wii software and has amazing graphics and game play. Overall, I was quite impressed with Nintendo and Retro Studios. However, there is a little bit of bad content. Keep in mind that Samus (the main character) is a girl. One thing to note is that this game is a first-person-shooter game (or FPS). However, the game focuses more on puzzles and adventuring than shooting (as opposed to C.O.D). The game relays the message that good always overpowers evil, and also to fight for what you know and love. Samus is a great role-model for a couple of reasons. First, she fights for the good side even when her friends are overpowered by the "evil corruption" mentioned throughout the game. She also makes it a priority to stay away from the evil corruption. This game is a FPS so therefore it is violent. Little blood is shown in the game and the robot Space Pirates that you are killing don't scream in agony when they are defeated. Also, during one cut-scene Samus takes off her helmet and pukes. The commander that gives you a mission at the beggining of the game uses the word "d*mn". This is strange because in general, Nintendo stays away from bad language. At least he only uses the word once at the beginning. Parts of the game can get frustrating such as saving Norion from the meteor and bypassing "fuel gel" on Bryyo. These are all quick and take little time though and remember that you can usually get a hint from pressing the 2 button. Other that this some areas can be ominous yet beautiful such as Skytown, Elysia and Bryyo's Thorn Jungle. Overall, content: 13+. Gameplay and fun factor 10/10. Don't pass it up!

This game is terrible. It is really boring and dumb and you have to go find random stuff like in zelda. Not worth time or money. Probably 11+ anyway.

This is probably my favorite 1st person shooter. Of course there's fighting, but it's only aliens and there's no blood. The T rating is probably good, though, just because there is a lot of searching, problem solving, and backtracking, and young kids might get bored. Otherwise, a good pick.

This is a really good game and i have it. It's intense in violence not to much and does have blood. ex. when done with boss a creepy eye pop out u kill it n blue blood (lots of it) spurs out. The puzzle r great, so great it got me working. overall i say a 11+ year old kid should paly tha game.
