Technically, the now-gen revival of Bionic Commando is rated "M" because of some violence and light language. But the reason that Capcom didn't trim that to go for a Teen rating is a bit more complex. MTV Multiplayer reports that the game was originally supposed to ship with a demo for the definitely M-rated Resident Evil 5.

 

Plans changed and Bionic Commando ended up being released after RE5, and since it had already gotten an infusion of dirty words and blood, the rating stuck. Bad news for some, but good news for us who want one more reason to feel superior to 15-year-olds.
