Post Parents Blameing "Lack" of Info on ESRB
[rant]

First off ESRB was established in 1994 and is regulated by the video game development companies. Yes i know that all parents are tech savvy(i know mine aren't). Now that does not excuse the parents entirely. At most if not all game retailers it is required for the seller to id the buyer to see if they are 17+. First off that should be their first clue. Second it clearly says right on the box front and back rated M for mature with clear(ish) description. As ibleedv20 pointed out some parents do game with their kids but many just give Timmy th game and say have fun. When they do find out that Timmy has been chopping up people in his new video game they get mad at the retailer or the game developer. Ever since the GTA fiasco i would expect more parents to realize that violence actually means VIOLENCE not loony toon spring back violence. If there are parents reading this DO NOT BLAME THE GAME DEVELOPERS OR ESRB IF YOU BUY THE GAME FOR YOUR CHILD
