 Over at The Day, they have this article out addressing something that some of you may be tired of hearing about: violence in videogames. What makes this particular article different is that it looks at the efforts of people to get parents in on the act of regulating what children play on their consoles.
How is it refreshing? Here's a surprisingly positive (for us adult gamers who want our adult games) comment from Adam Thierer of the Progress and Freedom Foundation:
Frankly, if a parent can't figure out what's in a game from those descriptors, then they must not be looking at the box. It's right there to see.
Other interesting bits in the article? Here's a nice quote from Sen. Joseph Lieberman about the rating system (something that we prefer over statewide bans):
This is about parents exercising some responsibility for what their children play and see, and therefore to protect their children from the worst impact of them.
It's good to read that they're starting to take responsibility for things, and are starting to focus on parental responsibility instead of playing the blame game.
