Save gaming editors from an awful lot of...
This whole issue is ludicrous. If parents actually looked at the rating on the cover of the box, we wouldn’t even have this controversy. The problem is the rating system is not enforced. Film and television are. TV’s now come with a V-chip to block unsuitable content for children, no problem. You can’t rent or buy tickets to “R” movies unless you are over 17, no problem. You can’t buy “adult” books or magazines unless you are 18 or older, no problem. While A 10-yearold can, however, walk into a Wal-Mart and purchase an “M” rated game, no questions asked. Why doesn’t the government simply require age verification for video game purchasing? It’s in place for every other medium, even the internet. Hilary Clinton thinks we need to spend millions of dollars on studys to find the obvious. It’s just a case of irresponsible parenting and sales practice. A simple regulation to enforce the rating system would solve the whole issue.
