Why is oblivion rated M

Why is oblivion rated M
Well, oblivion used to be rated "T" for Teen, but was soon changed. The main reason for this change was because the ESRB rating checkers only played the game on the Xbox360 platform. They decided that the Ps3 and the PC were them same. They were wrong. Well they were wrong for at least the PC versoin. In almost all PC game there are "mods" and "add-ons" that players of the game make themselves. Most of these mods were harmless, but of course someone has to make a "inappropriate" one. This mod would make women appear to be "topless". Once the ESRB was notified of this, they immidiatly revieved the game on the PC and rendured it "M". They also had to change the rating on the Console game, to fit with ESRB standards. Now on the box of every game it says "Mature, M 17+. Blood and gore, SEXUAL THEMES, language, use of alchol, and violence. Once the "sexual themes" was added, all gaming retialers were forced to remard the game Oblivion.
