Gears of War 2 to have optional violence, profanity filter
| August 06 2008Sqeamish? Mom not like your violent video games? Then the new Gears of War 2 violence and profanity filter is right up your alley.
Hehehe! It tickles!
A report in MCV Tuesday revealed that gamers will have a violence and profanity filter at their disposal in the upcoming Gears of War 2.
Instead of blood and swears, squeamish players will see sparks and less harsh language, or "mild curses," the U.K. report said.
The game has already been given an 'M' rating by the ESRB, and the filter is seen as an attempt to "placate concerned parents by giving them an option to substitute blood for sparks and remove all bad language," MCV said.
