Mature Video Games in the Minority

Posted by Zonk on from the most-folks-just-want-to-have-fun dept.

Steve writes "Of the record breaking $7.3 billion in video games sold in 2004, only 18 percent of them were rated "M". This is surprising, considering some media watch groups have great concern over inappropriate video games landing in the hands of children, even claiming that 60-90 percent of video games have violent themes. Filefront uncovers the real trend and includes quotes from ESRB President Patricia Vance."

    Is this 18% by title, or 18% by sales? No, I did not RTFA :)
