"Someone stupid at MS is probably equating the PEGI 18 rating with the AO rating in the US"

I could be wrong but to me this sounds like a problem with the PEGI rating system ...

From what I can tell the ESRB created ratings that were based on movie ratings and Mature is (roughly) the same as R-rated, and AO is (roughly) the same as NC-17. The problem is that PEGI doesn't have an equivalent rating which is a massive mistake.

What makes a movie NC-17 instead of R?

I'm guessing explicit nudity. Gotta save those children!

Saw 1 orginally was NC-17,then directer cut some scene to make it rated R
