Slashdot carried a snippet from a larger article at Game Daily indicating that the rating for Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion has been changed from "T"een to "M"ature. They likened it to the recent GTA coffee scandal.
The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) has just sent word that the rating assigned to Bethesda's and 2K Games' The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion has been changed from T (Teen 13+) to M (Mature 17+). "The content causing the ESRB to change the rating involves more detailed depictions of blood and gore than were considered in the original rating, as well as the presence of a locked-out art file or 'skin' that, if accessed through a third party modification to the PC version of the game, allows the user to play with topless versions of female characters," said the ESRB in a release.
