How did Prey get away with this without getting a law suit?

why it should be ilegal?

no kids where harm
 
when was it a law? i dont see how it would be considered a lawsuit since it goes along with the game.
 
That takes guts for sure, though.

I thought it was ileagle to have children get killed in games....
Bah that's not so bad at all. In fact later on those 2 kids become sort of a mini boss stage. So you are shooting and killing kids. :O And they come out of a bloody school bus that was abducted into the ship. And btw if you ever played the demo, did you ever see the human blender? Very good game but its crude, vulgar, and gory. :x Went against my instinct though and still bought it. Oh and there is some plane crash with a commercial jet and you can hear the pilot call for mayday while being abducted into the ship. Made me say, "oh thats where my sock went to in the dryer." Or "oh thats where that plane went to in the Bermuda triangle." :P
 
Of course it's legal. This is America, not Germany.

EDIT: well, for me it is :p

Rgr. Very fun game. Cant wait for Prey 2.
 
Kudos to the game manufacturer that doesn't 'edit' their games to keep the ratings acceptable for certain stores/entities at the cost of the immersion or storyline. I recall the writers of Prey grappling with this issue, and am glad they stuck with their original plan.
 
Yeah, Prey was an obvious case of them never even considering a Teen rating. They knew it was Mature and went for it.
 
You actually thought it was illegal for children to be killed in a videogame ? .. wow. :O
 
Prey isin't a Rocktsar game, and not created by a company that is under the radar of a psycho like jack thompson?
 
I played the demo and this is the only screenshot I took.

Maybe if killing children was the objective of the game, it would have gotten a lawsuit.
 
Prey was sorta meh imo, but the fact that they had so much graphical violence is of course a big plus, especially children. Man that school bus creeped me out first time I passed it. Too bad they had to screw up a pretty good idea with all that indian mumbo jumbo. Spirit walk= Stupid. Rebellious aliens that are also indians= Double stupid. Lameass attempt at love story= Superduper stupid with an extra portion of moron.
 
It never springed to mind ... Suppose the only time they'd get in trouble for it is if someone actually went out after playing the game and .. yaknow ... one of those twisted people =/
