Basically, the voluntary anonymous organization ESRB board gets a screening of the game's "most offensive" moments, then judge via descriptors and rating in a survey for the attending critics.

In the US, the M rating is just 17+, AO (Adults only) is 18+ and is much restricted in public sales.

RP means "Rating Pending", which means it has not recieved a rating from the ESRB yet.
