I agree about the M rated thing, Nepharski. I would imagine it being rated M if it was extremely violent, but not for it's dark content- I just think it would be somewhat silly to rate a game M just for some "dark content". But, for some reason, I'm still a bit skeptical over this. I just don't trust GI and I believe that they are one of the magazine sites that have pulled some big April Fools jokes before. I can't remember for sure, but I thought that they had pulled something like this before in one of their magazines and it ended up being a joke, but we'll just have to wait and see, I guess. :/ And Abe Babe, I read your post from before and you're not alone. I feel the same way as you do.
I feel just a bit disappointed about this myself, but if this is true, I'm sure OWI can pull it off and make this a great game anyway.
