High court accepts case over violent video games

A free speech dispute over a California law banning sale of violent video games to children will go to the Supreme Court for review.  The justices Monday accepted the state's appeal and will decide whether the law is too restrictive in denying access by minors to often-graphic material. Video-game makers say the ban goes too far. They say the existing nationwide, industry-imposed, voluntary ratings system is an adequate screen for parents to judge the appropriateness of computer games.

Interesting to see how this plays out.
