    The goverment looked into the games industry recently, wasnt it the Bryron Report or something like that?
    One of the findings was that games needed to have a similar age rating to films so that parents could take the content more seriously and stop little nine year old timmy from running down hookers etc in gta.
    What was the point of the study then if after all that, the reccomendations are just ignored anyway?
    How much did the study cost?

    The only reason to think about anything that woman does is to remind yourself that behind that pretty face is a pile of rotting useless. Yes. She has made 'useless' a tangible substance and used it for the part of the brain that deals with common sense and logic..

    The Pre-PEGI system was terrible. The existing movie rating system is terrible. Simply because neither of them tell you want you can expect for your 15/18/whatever rated movie or game. Just that some arbitrary group has said it's probably not suitable for people under those ages and don't feel like explaining.
