1-... People don't watch your age in EU... I bought shooters on my own when i was at the age of 8. As of today... This is still not a problem in my region... I can buy every 18+ game i want and they don't even look at me to check my age.

 

That may be the case in practice, but I still think it's a stupid move, due to principle. What Sony is effectively saying is that legally, you have to be 18 to buy a PS3. I expect some news about this soon.

Regarding the 60 GB PS3, it's also ridiculous to not change it's recommended sale price. But these days, Sony doesn't seem to be guided by the same logic as the rest of the world, so maybe I shouldn't be surprised...

 

Agreed... This is gonna give em some bad advertising... In the form of: 'PS3... Ships with Mature-only game... Sony to prevent children to buy a PS3... PS3's focus on mature only' or something like that. And when that word spreads... People in stores WILL check people on age.
