honestly, do you think 13 year-olds are going to run off and star killing people just because of what they see in this game? you know what you need CS? a little bit of COMMON SENSE!

Good for a player that understands shanking innocent people is wrong
The message that is received from this game depends completely on the player. One player may sneak by and avoid taking lives, while another player goes shanking everyone left and right. The plot is also easily ignorable, the missions are usually just go here, get that, get out. But the plot is interesting if you pay attention. Sam Fisher is an iffy role model, a nice guy with good intentions, but he shanks people without blinking.

A game that you might enjoy
This game is fun at first, but gets old after you have played it a while. There are some off screen torture, and you sometimes have the choice to kill people.

For a mature 12 year old...
A good game for a mature 12 year old! There is a bit of language (s***, h***, b**** and p***) but is very infrequent! Unlike the previous two splinter cells, you may notice that you now have a knife! When you stab someone there is no blood or gore, but you can here the sound of it which sometimes makes you cringe! Overall this is a hard game which encoureges stealth instead of run and gun! GET THIS GAME!!!

M rating? No reason here
I personally think this is one of the best entries in the series. I see no reason it has an M rating. The only time I could think of it having any reason for that is an off-screen torture sequence in the first mission. It encourages you to not even knock others out, solve puzzles and try to be a reasonable person in the process. Needs a teen rating

It really depends...
Ok now this game is hard to rate but personally I LOVE IT!!! The reason being is because not everyone is going to kill everything they see, some kids will use stealth (it's easier) I'm not saying that no one is going to kill everything that's alive but most kids don't and if you are mindlessly killing ou're not stimulating the brain as you could be while sneaking around and finding hidden passages.

I've recently downloaded Tom Clancey's Spilnter cell: Conviction from Steam, and have been playing and loving it for a while now. The game plays out similar to a Tom Clancey novel; Korea starts showing aggression to Japan, and you, special agent Sam Fisher, are sent in to fix things before things get hostile. This is the first Splinter cell game to be rated M for Mature, most likely because you are given a knife, which gives you the option to execute enemies using it. No blood is shown during these scenes, though small amounts can be seen when shooting an enemy. There is minimal swearing, the worst I've heard being "sh-t", but nothing stronger. The game rewards you for being stealthy and not killing people, executions leading to a lower score at the end of the mission. The game has an average difficulty, sometimes involving trial and error, but generaly stays challenging but not frustrating. I would rate it +13 years and older, though more Mature 11-12 year olds could easily handle the content.

Splinter Cell Chaos Theory
I love this game. My Dad has let me play it since I was twelve. He has now let my ten year old brother play. In the game you get to sneak up behind unsuspecting enemies and grab them. You will get the choice to Interrogate sometimes. When you are done with the interrogation you will get the choice to knock the man out or hit him in the back with your knee in result killing him. Although the objective of the game is to get the highest score you can through stealth and limited killing. Every time you kill someone your score is dropped. The downside is that the very first level of the game is a vivid torture. In the interrogation you will hear the man screaming as they shock the poor man. Also in the last level if you do not execute everything right you will be captured and interrogated. Over all the game is not the worst ever.

This game was fun to play. Your person is equipped with many cool gadgets to help you complete your missions. This game is very violent because its all about killing. They also swear a lot while doing it.

M?????
Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory may be rated M, but that is to high of a rating. Thought Sam Fisher uses violence to get to his goals, it is never very graphic, and is not very bad. Sam swears occalisonaly, but never uses them at people. This game should be rated T!

It's your choice
I think this is one of the most fun games ever- for a certain age. there really is no big issue in any of it (violence, social behavior, etc.) it is mostly what you decide to do. You can eighther be good or be bad and the game rewards good behavior. I found the language to be kinda iffy (s-word here and there, "hell and D**n" are used in the wrong way) and the violence never really got outta hand (knife cuts, gunshots, bone breakage). of course as i have mentioned, the violence is really whether you want to keep the person alive or kill them. And finally, younger kids may find this to be hard and unintersting. for teens and older.
