Government Pressure on ESRB

Alex Blonski writes "There is new CNN coverage on the recent pressure the government is putting on the ESRB to crack down on mature-rated titles, after the Grand Theft Auto Debacle. ESRB President Patricia Vance says that 'It is very important for people to realize that this game is rated " for mature,' Vance said. 'This game is not a game that was rated for children. Regardless of what if anything was modified, it's a game that the ESRB has made as clear as it can that it was not intended for anyone under the age of 17.'"

Re:The rating systems are stupid.

More explicit ratings systems aren't going to do a damn thing. The parent are already not doing their jobs, THAT'S the problem. It's not that the system is broke, but the Zoloft parents that can't control their own kids who are.
