I agree, this conversation is pretty damn funny to me.
I'm rooting for even crazier to add to the quote wall - the first page was awfully rewarding.

the only reason we have ratings is the idiots that would sue the gaming industry because they can't take care of their kids. these people look for the first person/thing to blame for their problems on, take ADD for example THERE IS NO SUCH THING it is just kids that their parents haven't taught them that the world doesn't revolve around them. so until the Americans learn not to sue people for everything (so blame them for the rating system)we will have the rating system.

But seriously... why not just ask your mum/dad to buy the crap for you? If they won't then just live with it and tell them thanks from Fred because they're doing their job as a parent and actually paying attention to what you put into your impressionable little skull.

It's the principle of the matter. The fact that a third party has the final say over what is or is not appropriate for you to view is pernicious and insulting.

Hahahaha... well, be that as it may. You might as well get used to it--third parties have the rule unless you're the President or God. An aside, are you two making this same argument over at the MPAA boards as well?

I hate to be the only one to point this out. But you're under 18 and you think you should be allowed to play M rated games? So does every other minor. That's kind of the point.

I do feel that I shold be able to buy these games. And my parrents believe I am mature enough to make those decisions also. My orignal arguement is that I shouldent have to check it by corporate PR also. I believe that it is the decision of the faimly. this is unfair to the stricter side to. it is also decideing the morality in principal for them.

Unfortunately, if you live in a civilized nation most anywhere in the world you're still going to be subjected to some pernicious and insulting third party's opinion of what is right and proper for you in some way, shape or form.

Decoy Doctorpus i don't know were you live, but I'm 16, and I'm going to school and people asking for change tried to rob me like 101 times, i turn on the TV and see an 5 freaking o'clock a show like dancing for fame but they dance semi-naked you watch the news and see people that rape and kills minors and old people, and you don't want me to PLAY A FRIKING GAME.
Get crazy people out of the street, and make a better world or don't bug me with rating systems.
