Register and give HL2 all green circles.
edit: I do not condone giving your child violent video games.
edit2: excessively violent.
RED - STOP! The raters found a lot and/or some very intense instances of material in this category.
I can understand most of the rating (13-17 is a bit too wide a gap IMO) but what exatly is Illegal/Harmful in HL2? They can't be counting CPs as police officers.

At that rate, you wouldn't even be able to finish Super Mario Bros.1. LIMIT game playing time. (Recommendation: no more than one hour per day.)
Just because the parent isn't comfortable with it, doesn't mean the actual PLAYER isn't.2. CHECK the age game ratings on the box. But become familiar with the game before you buy it. [(Some T(een) and E(veryone) rated games have a level of violence and sex that you may not be comfortable with.]
...previewed by the godless, soulless serial killers that your child will become from playing videogames.3. USE other content sources and reviews to help you choose a game. (Games are often previewed in detail on the web.)
Anything else would be a thought crime.4. CHECK KidScore for parent generated game reviews.
So you not only look like a nazi, but also a cheapass.5. RENT a game to preview before buying.
Oh, heaven forbid should someone play an FPS.6. AVOID the "first person shooter", killing-machine games. M-rated games are not meant for children or teenagers.
Like the little food pellets lab rats are given after performing a task. But you only get to play for an hour, so why bother?7. REQUIRE that homework and chores be done before game playing. Playing games should be a reward.
Yeah, privacy is a BAD thing.8. DO NOT PUT video game consoles or computers in children's bedrooms where they can shut the door and isolate themselves.
Sure, Barbie Fashion Show does get a little wild. oh, and you can only play for an hour.9. PLAY AND ENJOY the game with your child; check in as your child moves into deeper levels in the game. (With some games the level of violence goes up the deeper into the game the player gets.)
...so I cut her head off with a MACHETE!10. TALK about the content of the games. Ask your child what's going on in the game.
Because you're Amish.11. EXPLAIN to your children why you object to certain games.
Remember, shooting fictional people is just as bad as shooting real people.12. ASK your local retailer or rental store to implement policies preventing the sale or rental of M-rated (mature) games to children or youth.
...but not any of the really good ones like Halo or CS.13. LOOK for games that involve multiple players to encourage group play.
So Pac-Man is out of the question........TOO VIOLENT!14. PICK non-lethal games that require the player to come up with strategies, and make decisions in a game environment that is more complex than punch, run, and kill.
Yeah kids, go to your friend's house to play videogames. At least you can play for more than an hour.15. Finally, ENCOURAGE your child to play with friends away from the video game set.
