The First game I played that SHOULD have been M rated was between Mortal Kombat or this weird poltergeist game for the SNES when I was 5 or 6. Other than that I gotta give a shoutout to Conkers Bad Fur Day for N64. That game was brilliant.
what was your first mature-rated game?

I think Mortal Kombat was the first game I got to play when the ESRB was implemented. I was around 10 when it happened, so my knowledge of the time is kinda fuzzy.
The ESRB ratings are age ratings at the core, they just go by different names. If you look into it, there's an age connected to each rating. EC is for very young children, from 3-10. E is 6 and up, E10+ -- which is the newest rating -- is 10 and up, T is 13 and up, M is 17 and up, and AO is 18 and up. Using letters instead of numbers makes it easier for parents to make decisions based on the maturity level of the child, rather than the age alone, but the numbers are still there.Jasonater said:
Edit: The age is even listed on the ratings box, it's just in smaller print than the letter.
@pwnzerstick, the rating of Oblivion was changed after release from T to M. It says T if you have a close-to-release copy.
For myself, it was either GTA Vice City or Halo 2.
Also, the problem with this kind of thread is that half the people won't read everyone else's, they'll just post their own. It's just an all around feel-good deal.

Halo. My first game, too (well, real game, anyways). I wasn't interested in video games before, and my brother was addicted, and four years younger than me, so I started playing with him. Kicked my ass a few times but I quickly learned how to completely decimate him and continue to to this day. Not just in Halo.
Of course, unless my math is off, I was nine at the time...

DOOM when I was 3, I found it by accident on the computer.Kept getting stuck under a stair case until I was 4.
Marine Sharpshooter when i was 5 or 6. Never passed the first level, but it was still pretty satisfying at that age.
First one I owned was Grand Theft Auto 3. I was 12. First one I played was Mortal Kombat 3 when I was 6 or 7.
SOCOM: Arbitrary Subtitle.
They're rather strict, I'll only be able to get RDR if I get above a 97 average.
Goddamn math homework bringing it down...
EG,OM
