If you hadn't guessed from the game's trailers, Bulletstorm is a strictly adults-only affair. However, just because kids are around, that doesn't mean you shouldn't play your M-rated games, and Epic is making it possible with an optional language filter.
Both the dialog and subtitles can be toned down in the curse department, for the sake of children or the terminally sensitive. So far we don't know if the swears will be bleeped, silenced or Monday-to-Friday re-dubbed entirely.
Let it be known that even a Catholic schoolgirl can enjoy Bulletstorm now. That shall be a great relief to Nuns everywhere.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
so its not cool to swear around kids, but killing and face kicking is fine.
i like how parents think their babies will be like that forever and forget humans get older and grow up. its like they were never kids themselves.
your kids gonna grow up and learn these words anyway, why not make him smarter than the other kids by teaching him all kinds of words.
Then I can dub over them with my own words.
Sometimes, censorship can be an amazing catalyst.
Why not make him meaner too, and give him a sword? Yeah, that'll show the other parents what child rearing's about.
I'm not mocking you there. In fact, I'm wholly neutral about your point. I did, however, intend to provide the parents of the future fair warning about what their groin-gladiators will face on the playgrounds of tomorrow.
@Daxelman
I too have plans to dub everything in olde-timey English speak. Modern language? Balderdash, I say.
@Leon
Catholic highschools are five years of Pillowfights 101.
This option doesn't effect me but it's nice for parents or such that worry about swearing while their kid rips the guts out of their opponent.
Sort your funking life out mate.
Prink.
It's funking Sunday. And I've got to go to funking work in four funking hours because every other funker in my funking department is funking ill!

Alright! Gay...
I may be gay but That doesn't change the fact that dogs can't look up.
Now if they could only donthe same to all this kids on xbox live...
*fires Winchester*
I fucking knew it! Big Al was right!
Have you seen the Hot Fuzz version of Funky Pete, Hot Funk?
Its NOT the conservatives who will knock down your door because of tits
Its the LIBERALS who belive everything should be censored conservatives are Anti-censorship
Can't we just all agree it's old people?
That^^^ with images
YARP.
You're off the fuckin' chain!
Yeah I hate that specifically that is frowned upon, they fucking hate it when you shout penis in Mothercare.
I don't think people "enjoy" cussing per se. Just, no one really gives a fuck.
"... or silt"
Well, personally, I curse like there's no tomorrow but it's not really because I "enjoy" it. What I enjoy is my speech and it just so happens that the word "fuck" comes along with it.
I really don't care. I would hope that by now we can all recognize that they're just words until someone's being a dick. Saying "cunt" doesn't make you a dick by default. Being a dick makes you a dick.
