A cynic would accuse ratings boards of restricting information, but considering how many details about a game have leaked from public ratings in the past, one can't say they're that restrictive. This time, it's the turn of Gears of War 2 to have its contents revealed, as the BBFC has made all of the bonus disc's details public.
God bless the obsessive compulsives who troll ratings board Web sites, hitting F5 twenty four hours a day to find the latest fresh intel. I really can't fathom that level of dedication to knowing things about videogames, but I thank those lifeless souls willing to put in such legwork for the rest of us to enjoy.
Anyway, hit the jump for the BBFC's bean spilling.

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?
