Parent Verdict

A genuinely great story, but a thoroughly adult one: graphic gunfights, animal hunting and skinning shown in detail, heavy drinking, and pervasive strong language. Players can also choose cruel actions toward innocents. The online mode adds open voice chat. Appropriate for 17-plus; younger teens should wait.
