BBFC responds to UK Conservative Party's call against violent video games |
Ó
The British Board of Film Classification has responded to UK Conservative Party leader David Cameron's statements calling for a review of its regulatory framework.Cameron revealed earlier this week a dossier called "It's Time to Fight Back". As we reported earlier, the dossier urged video game developers - as well as proponents of other forms of artistic expression like films and music - not to promote issues such as casual violence, gang culture and the degradation of women.
In response, BBFC spokesperson Sue Clark told MCV that the classification guidelines that the BBFC uses are "based on what the public deems acceptable." She further added that they "feel confident that we have public consent on how we deal with issues such as gun and knife crime."
The UK's Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) also spoke in support of the BBFC. Here's what one DCMS spokesman told MCV:
We have a strict enforcement code for people who supply '18' or '15' rated games to children. Adults can make their own decisions which games to play, as they can which films to watch.

"Adults can make their own decisions which games to play, as they can which films to watch." ...except when they are banned.
Do you wish you could have a free ps3 well all you need to do is go to http://www.YourPS34free.com/index.php?ref=4049743. Here all you have to do is sign up and do one referral. Once that is completed just refer people and wait for your ps3 in that mail.
Step 1: Go to http://www.YourPS34free.com/index.php?ref=4049743
Step 2: Sign up and choose an account type (Referral is the easiest and the best)
Step 3: Complete just 1 offer (like Blockbuster or Stamps.com) and refer up to 14 people to do the same (eBay! Do what I did, copy my ad). Its cool because although you have to use your credit card, you don't have to pay a single penny, just don't forget, if you sign up for stamps.com, don't forget to cancel the account before 30 days of subscription, YOU PAY $0..... (for stamps install the program and print one stamp to make sure it goes through.)
If Canadian go and sign up for the zip.ca one page two of most popular. Both are free REMEMBER TO CANCEL BEFORE IT EXPIRES LIKE AFTER IT IS CONFERMED
Step 4: Receive your PS3 for FREE!!!!!!!!!!( Even The Shipping Is Free!!!)
