There was blood, but it was green. You can mostly see it in the melee combat with the retractable vibro-blades.

 

As Kurgan said, there doesn't seem to be any content that would warrant more than a Teen rating - however, we've certainly not seen the full game. Considering it's supposed to be a 'gritty and intense' shooter, perhaps there is some more mature content in there somewhere.

 

I guess we'll have to play the waiting game, as usual.

Considering it's lucasarts It'll probably be TEEN. But I figure it'll most likely be a line walking one, close to mature, but just enough below it to be teen. Those vibro blades do look like fun. :p

Ah I guess I'll need to go frame by frame to see the blood (those shots were very quickly cut, pun intended, on the videos).

 

It could very well be like the previous JK games, the major violence being "locked away" as an easter egg for sleuthful gamers to find as a hidden feature, but I still wouldn't expect anything too over the top.

There is something like that on the game Conflict:desert storm.

 

That would be cool. I read somewhere that when you like kill a geonosian in close range their guts might fly on your helmet.

 

If guts are blasting on your helmet, i find it hard to believe it is Teen....

Sorry...that was my fault. I've got a crappy memory - I thought it was in the trailers I saw some blood. It wasn't. It was in the screenshots. This one, to be exact...

It shows a splash of green blood when using the retractable vibro blades. I think they must have turned blood off for the trailers coming out of E3.

 

In one of those trailers (not the official one - but one from IGN), there was a splash of red after a Trandoshan gets shot with a shotgun - but on closer inspection I think it's just the fade-out from the blast.

 

I hope they haven't decided to take blood out of the game since that screenshot was taken. :confused:

You know, this is the Unreal engine and all the Unreal games (as you know) have blood and guts in them.

 

So it's quite possible (as was the case in JK2 when it was previewed at E3) that we're simply seeing the blood effects that were in the original game, and it'll probably be this last detail that will be removed before the game ships, to sneak it in under the popular "Teen" rating.

 

And most likely with any luck you'll see mods to bring the blood back within a short time.

 

That "spray" in the pic definately looks like it's intended to be blood. Do Trandoshans have green blood? Who knows. But as any Ratings hound knows, green blood is "less lifelike" than red blood in a game, so they do that to get a lower rating.

 

Lots of Dreamcast games in the US for example had green blood in them, even though these were usually arcade ports of games that had red blood originally. And usually the game had a hidden option to change the color back to normal. Likewise Doom for the GBA got green blood for a US release, etc etc. Lots of examples.

 

So maybe, rather than take the blood out, they'll just make it green, who knows?

I know, but all the other ones haven't really been very gorey, as in like no blood at all......

Why would you include blood if that would result in less people be able to buy the game? ;)

Or maybe there´s parental option where blood can be turned on/off. I think I´ve seen that before.

I like that idea....

 

Actually, what iof GTA was Teen? I think LESS people would buy it, but since it has an "M" rating, everyone wants it.

 

Besides, that would stop a bunch of 8 year olds from coming on "OMG, Y0U $UX |' |\/| GONN@ HAZORZ YOUZ!" :)
