Great Morality Based Game for Thirteen And Over
As much as I dislike the ESRB, they were right on the money with this rating. The violence is completely bloodless, and the sexual references are so undetectable, I didn't even notice them. However, the themes and moral choices can be considered mature themes, so I would not suggest letting anyone under eleven play this. As for the game in and of itself, I loved it, but then, I like talky games. If your kids want action get 'em Halo. This one is for people who like dialog driven and extremely talky RPG's with some action elements.

KotOR
KotOR is a great game that is a lot of. There are lightsaber battles and blaster battles but nothing to violent, while you can choose between light or dark side it is for fun if you are 13+ you should be able to handle it. If you are a parent and your child is under this age maybe you could just moniter it and see if you think your child is mature enough to play it. Sorry I accidently posted this reveiw on KotOR 2

Great Game!
I have this game on Xbox and I love it! Let me explain my ratings: There are contradicting highlights and concerns like good role model/bad role model because you can choose to be good or evil, if you are a boy or girl and what you look like. -Violence The violence in this game is mild compared to some other Star Wars games. The combat is turn based but is blended so there are parries and deflections in lightsaber combat. There is no blood but enemies sometimes moan when they are killed. There are points in the game where you see corpses and skeletons and one dismembered arm. Players can use swords, lightsabers, blasters and explosives to fight. -Lovey-Dovey Stuff Ok, there is love in the game. But I don't find love bad. There are also some suggestive themes in the game. These themes are why the game is cited for this category. The female (and male) characters in your party can be equipped with tight fitting clothes (jumpsuits for guys, swimsuits for girls). There are dancing female Twi'lek slaves with semi-revealing clothing on in some cantinas. I also hear that there is a kissing scence but it requires that you pursue love intrests and I have not come across it. Two of the people in your party love you (if you are male it's a and b and if your female it's a and c) (forgive my use of algebra) which means one character will like you no matter what gender you are. You can tell a select character that you love them too. -Language Some characters say h*ll and d*mn. -Drugs There are things in the game called stimulants that can temporarily boost some of your stats. This could be percieved as drugs but their use is optional and truthfully I wouldn't have cited the game for it if I hadn't read the Common Sense Media reveiw. There is also a point where you meet drunken men on the street. -Choices Throughout the game there are decisions you can make that can send you down the light or dark paths. These conversations and subsequent actions could be imitated by kids. These choices are realistic because they invovle sacrifice, greed and other motives and consequences. You can fight evil or become it. - Educational Things There are various points in the game where you can (try to) solve logic and math problems. These can vary from identifyng number patterns to very hard logical problems. Overall this game is one of if not the best Star Wars games there are. It's story is great, the graphics are stunning and the music is wonderful. -Avatar Aang

Good for 14 and up, but iffy for 12 and up.
I really like the game, BUT, there are some very mature things in this game. There are things that eye's should not see. VERY FUN THOUGH!!!!

Fine for over 10, old star wars storyline
My fav game. Too many bars and buying rounds of drinks for people. Slight every now implied sexual encounters. Good role models in lead female Jedi. Positive messages in trusting your friends and allies.

Great, game, all the way.
One of the best games in the world. Nothing more than d*** and a message has nothing to do with sex. Highly recommend this game.

good game
This is certainly an incredible game. While there is little to be truly worried about (the violence and occasional 'damns' and 'hells'), the 'path to the dark side' dialogue and action options could be found imitatable by younger children. If the child is young or immature, be careful - they may imitate some in-game material with friends. Also, be aware that there is a vast and plentiful modding community for this game - while many of the mods are harmless, some of the less mature internet-goers may offer more skin-tight or revealing outfits for female characters, and some less savory sites offer 'nudity' mods. Keep track of the mods a child downloads, if they do such things.

Great educational and fun game
I think it is fine for most ages, however I believe younger children will not get a grasp of the amazing story or the situation hence leading them to possible bad choices. But all in all I think its a great game and increases your math, spelling and english (If you have subtitles on)

okay 6 plus
this gamw is really fun. The combat is glitchy but it isn't that big of a deal. It is not action packed though. You are required to make choices that effect your entire gameplay experience, which includes killing somebody, or helping somebody. Going light side or dark side. not to spoil anything but they drastically change what happens in end game.

Great game in the style of Neverwinter Nights
This game runs on the outstanding Neverwinter Nights engine and uses it well. Great for RPG fans and Star Wars fans alike. Also might appeal to FPS fans to to level of action, suspense, and surprise in some areas.
