    Words Allowed in Lego Rock Band?

    I'm guessing it will be E10. What words do you think will be allowed? Will "damn" be allowed? Would words like "high" be allowed, being censored in GH: OT?
    HMX, I love you. You introduced me to my favorite band, The Beatles. And now you're making a game for my first favorite, Green Day. Thank you so much

    If Neversoft censored "drunk" in The Rock Show and GH5 is rated T, I fear the censoring in Lego. Or they probably just chose songs they don't have to censor.

    I think it's too early to guess anything regarding LEGO's rating. And why are we basing censorship on what GH did? Rock Band isn't Guitar Hero. Harmonix is going to have a different opinion comparred to Activision when it comes to content.

    Instead of basing it off of GH, why not look at the same song in RB? And I think your second thought is closer to what will happen. Similar to how the Country Track Pack came in at E10+ but didn't have any "additional" editing (and included a song like Sin Wagon)

    E10 is allowed to say "Damn". Just go play Shadow the Hedgehog and see what I mean.

    I'm just going to take a random guess...and i could be completely off...but I think LEGO will censor every third word that contains the letter e, while also not allowing every seventh word that contains an even number of consonents.

    Words Allowed In Lego Rock Band:

    George Carlin's Seven Words.


    Nah, given that all other LEGO titles have been E10, and LRB will still have that same target audience, I wouldn't expect it to get a T rating at all....even that would be too "PG-13" for an essentially "PG" audience.

    So they're not likely to choose songs they'll have to censor in the first place, but if they do pick one or two, they *will* be censored. Shocking, I know.
