Can they do that?

I was watching someone play a game on YouTube, that's rated E10+ for Violence (Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit) But one of the in-game songs says a mild swear...

And it says nothing about it in the rating...

It was **tc*


(Is that enough censoring?)

Even with *e** and **m* (the 2 minor ones), it says something, like in Portal 2.

Re: Can they do that?

I can't exactly make out the word... How bad is the word on a scale of 1 - 10? (1 being a word like hello, goodbye, and 10 being very strong)

Re: Can they do that?

Well, it is 10+, but it mentions nothing of it in the rating, just Violence, which it's just smashing cars...

Re: Can they do that?

My theories:

-Maybe it was really rated T
-Maybe the person doing the vid said the word
-Maybe it said "Pitch" or something like that

neutral

No, the song was in the game, not the video.

And cod is M, and it says something about swears in the rating.

The lyrics say the word.

The soundtrack contains the song.

The game is E10+, the PEGI is 7+  yikes

EDIT: The music is downloaded from EA and it's an option, the rating says online content and music download not rated by the ESRB.

Really? You could just turn the music volume off, or not play when he's around, couldn't you?  hmm
