As a Canadian I already know retailers here check ID's and don't sell to minors anyways without government legislation. So making such a thing legally binding is only a good thing in my books. Besides it won't effect sales and developers much as dumb ass parents still go out and buy the M-rated games for their kids regardless of whether they are restricted or not. Infact I would love to see such a government policy strictly inforced. Example if Duke Nukem has pornographic content in it then it should be illegal to allow a minor to play. I'm all for this act wish it came to Canada. Also as another poster said if it means less five year olds smack talking me while I try to play my favorite game, hell yah inact it now! |
Perhaps kids should just be given to the state for a proper upbringing than? You can't trust an adult to raise them right can you?
Also you state that it wont affect sales, but also that less 5 year olds will have it. Isn't that a contradiction? And how will you play multiplayer online when the community dies due to lack of consumers at an apporopiate age? If people screaming in games frustrates you, mute them. But dont wish for them to be gone, cause your game will be gone too.
