Well, PEGI system doesn't have similar problem, since it doesn't have ratings, which has one year difference. But still the system is basically hypocracy, since you don't really need to lessen the violence to lower the rating. It's enough if you just remove the consiquenses. In example you shoot some guy in the head and his brain flies out, that's 18+ rating. But if you shoot some guy in the head but he just falls down, that's 16+ rating. If you really think it in the way, that what kind of influence it has with kids, thing should be the opposite. Current system teaches that violence has no consiquenses.
Germany tends to ban every game, where you kill people (for example Gears of War was banned), but i think that is a bit too hard.
They should increase the control in selling games to minors and bring to general knowledge that what those ratings means and what are they based in. And the ESRB AO rating age limit should be increased or M rating should be lowered. Or just get rid of either AO or M.
