phoo on you

Ministers plan clampdown on 'unsuitable' video games | Technology | The Guardian:

A legally enforceable cinema-style classification system is to be introduced for video games in an effort to keep children from playing damaging games unsuitable for their age, the Guardian has learned. Under the proposals, it would be illegal for shops to sell classified games to a child below the recommended age.

At present only games showing sex or "gross" violence to humans or animals require age limits. That leaves up to 90% of games on the market , many of which portray weapons, martial arts and extreme combat, free from statutory labelling.

Ministers are also expected to advise parents to keep computers and games consoles away from children's bedrooms as much as possible, and ask them to play games in living rooms or kitchens facing outward so carers can see what is being played.
(...)Hugo Swire, a former shadow culture secretary, has suggested that the default setting for internet content would be for children, with a password or pin needed for unfiltered material.

What the hell is a "shadow culture" and how can I become its secretary? Hell, that sounds pretty erotic, right there. Dangerotic!

It sounds as though movie ratings are compulsory, and government regulated in the UK, so it's in line with that to have games go that route. I hope US regulatory bodies don't suggest something similar for games in America. Good grief, pay attention to something that's not working pretty well, pay attention to something which actually makes a difference.
