I've read that PEGI have rated it an 18, but when i looked on the gamestation website, the boxart says BBFC 15 and its the same on Amazon, GAME, Gameplay etc. I'm buying it from the store in my town on friday and im 16 so if its an 18 i wont be able to buy it, anyone confirm the rating? :crying:

PEGI: 18+ Sorry.

I think it is 18 buddy. sorry. Try and get your folks to buy it for you or just go in and blag it.

Why does the boxart say 15 if the game is 18, that makes no sense

http://www.pegi.info...g=mass effect 2



that gave it to me as an 18



in the U.S it's 17+

[FAZZ Gundam]

It's MA 15+ in Australia but this isn't the time to rant about the idiotic lack of an R18+ rating. Sorry, man you're out of luck

[OriginalDiSarray]

well if its says 15 on the box and its on the shelf you have to be sold it due to consumer rights. If they refuse service get there name and report them to the heads Always a bit of fun.

I remember back when I was under 18, or even 21 for that matter. For me and my friends it was always about the search for beer, how to get our hands on it. Really searching for it was half the fun while the other half was the actual drinking of course.



Oh to be young...

My parents let me do anything, but they also work miles away from where my school is and i finish at 12 on friday want to get the game right then D: <

[MatronAdena]

best option would be to just wait until you see it on the shelves to be 100%.

It's a M ( 17+ ) in the States, and they are a little more lenient than Pegi can be, so I personally think it fits the 18 ( and the streams I've seen fit an 18 better )




then again, I'm 30 so I really don't bother paying much attention to ratings, even when it comes to my own kids...they wont be playing this though, thats for sure. atleast not for a few more years.

Well im from Ireland and the game is 18+ its because of the sexual themes and drug use in ME2.

UK and Ireland use the same age rating system.

just ask your dad or mam to buy it for you.

Why couldn't we just stick with BBFC honestly

I'd say still go for it bud. Give it a go. What have you got to lose. Only to gain. God that sounds like a bloody motivation speech!



Remember God loves a trier!

If the box says BBFC 15, then the odds are that the people working at the store will let you buy it.

[Sir Ulrich Von Lichenstien]

Unlike Game who shows box art as 15 but their page stating it is 18+, HMV shows it as 15 on their site as well as on the box.



I would guess someone at GAMEs website messed up.



As Original said, I'd just wait till Friday and go to a store. If it says 15 on the box, they have no rights not to sell it to you.

[Le Fizzy Bubble]

Meh i might just put some money in the bank and buy it online

Incorrect.  They don't have to sell you anything.  They could decline selling it just because they don't like your haircut.  I forget the exact law but it's to stop the 'you shelved this priceless piece of art next to a sticker that said £10, you have to sell it to me!' argument.

[Le Fizzy Bubble]

Well they know im 16, ive been going there for like 4 years trading stuff in and they have that policy where they dont let you trade in games if you arent the age on the box, and i trade in loads of 16+

the bffc took over and now rates all games in england because of the byron report.
Pegi was not coverd under british law and had no way to legaly enforce its ratings so now the uk just uses the BBFC ratings (british board of flim clasification)

had to write an report over it last year in uni

Sure? I bought a game recently for my PS3 and it has PEGI rating, so does the new Army of Two

You've got that the wrong way round.  Pegi is now used exclusively in the U.K.

[Dr_Vile]

Mass Effect 2 is a 15 rating in the UK. Whilst PEGI is being phased in this year, some games (such as ME2 and Aliens vs Predator) are still being rated by the BBFC. It won't completely switch over until later this year. So you should be able to get it.

[Loerwyn]

PEGI is legally enforcable as of sometime last year, so if it says 18+ on it, you HAVE to be 18 to buy it, regardless of what the BBFC say. Most of the time they match up, but PEGI doesn't have a 15 rating, it's 16 or 18.



@K K Slider + ajax-wounds; Not necessarily. If Ajax' report was done pre-September (I think) then he was correct. It was late 2009 when it was made legally enforcable.
