Is Halo 3 appropriate for a 13 year old?

okay first off this is my sons answers avatar and stuff this is his MOTHER!!!!!!!

My son wants to play Halo 3, he recently turned 13 an he asked for halo 3 for his birthday. After watching the gameplay on television I agreed. My son very excited wanted it now. (like most teenagers) Of course I asked my husband if he was okay with it. He gave me multiple reasons why he should not get it and he has convinced me that it is rated mature 17+
and my son does not need it. However my son has not stopped telling me that it is not that bad. He tells me over again that you don't shoot people the blood there is barely any and the langage is nothing but "damn" or "hell"

I still can't seem to believe him, but he is trying to pursuade me in so many ways it okay.

Please tell me what you think I would like to know from expirenced parents in my situation or adults that have played the game.

Well my brother started playing halo 2 at 9. He is now 12 and plays Halo 3. It really isnt bad. Theres minor curse words, like your son said. Theres blood but not a lot. I think its fine. Otherwise I wouldnt be saying this stuff. Its really fun too.

well ive played part oif the first and second ones and i dont think they are really that bad, and halo isnt as bad as stuff olike grand theft auto, which i refuse to play because ive seen what that makes the kids neer me do, they alll act "gangsta" and think its okay, but halo 3 isnt that bad i think, most of the combat isnt very factual, and the fact that they arent humans in the campaign make it less realistic, but ive heard about part of the game being terrifying in the terrible graphics of the first one, the floodd is supposedly the most terrifying thing in any game theyve played, if i had kids i might let them play it once they were 13-14, but i would probably wait till 15ish
