ESRB Descriptions Get Weird With Left 4 Dead 2, Kamen Rider Ratings
The Entertainment Software Ratings Board is home to invaluable information-and not just when they leak game details early. The ESRB’s typically sterile content descriptions are enormously entertaining, as proven by entries for Brutal Legend, Bayonetta and Scribblenauts.
But the ESRB may have a new, non-sterile policy for game rating summaries. That, or Left 4 Dead 2 writer Chet Faliszek is responsible for said summary. Oh, it starts off normal enough, noting that "the ‘Boomer’-Infected explode in a shower of blood and bile when shot, which clouds players’ view of the impending zombie swarm." Then it switches things up. With italics.
