I mean, it's understandable where your parents are coming from. My parents didn't even let me play T rated games until I was 12 and then M rated until I was 15 (I'm 17 now). They don't want you exposed to all the gore, violence, etc that the M rated games entail. The easiest way to get past this is, well, to bargain with them. That's how I got to be able to play any game I wanted. Now, my parents couldn't give less of a shit on what I play. A lot of the times video games influence actions in everyday life, and they don't want these games to consume you entirely. Your parents have a reasonable concern, but if you really want to play these games, you need to show them that you are mature for your age (I'm NOT implying that you are immature, just saying more maturity helps) and maybe that will sway their decision. Hope this helps!
