 Ah yes. It's another one of those nasty bills being tossed around in Congress. This new one from New York is taking the few recent bills into a whole new level.Remember when assemblyman Keith L.T. Wright (quite possibly, no affinity to Phoenix Wright) proposed to have kids protected from racist games and its ilk. And before that, representative Joe Baca introduced another bill which wanted those obtrusive warning labels on video game boxes. Via GamePolitics, we now hear that assemblyman Brian Kolb steps into the scene, this time with a new bill, A2837. The objective of this bill is pretty much the same: to protect minors from mature titles. But more specifically, that these games should come with a warning label that has the following: 18+ WARNING, SALE OR RENTAL TO ADULTS ONLY. MAY CONTAIN EXPLICIT DEPICTIONS DESCRIPTIVE OF OR ADVOCATING ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING:
PARENTAL ADVISORY. That's very specific. And a huge list too! What's to become of box artists - are they to be laid off now? And that's not the end of it either. Kolb's bill also proposes that these types of games are to be kept under surveillance in an "inaccessible by the general public" and seemignly under lock and key, "in a sealed and locked container." Any violators of this new rule (once it gets approved) may be subject to a fine of around US$ 1000, and may be put on the record for civil and criminal offenses. So. Does Viva Pinata count under bestiality? Does Persona 3 count for suicide? Related articles:

» As long as they aren't
Saying to get them banned.
I understand that children should be protected from such things.
An argument has always been "it's on the parents" but often times the child begs for the game and will show sadness without it. And parents usually just want their child to be happy.

» yeah, but
when i begged for something that was obviously not appropriate for me, the only sadness that i had was from the pain after getting the belt. then i understood on an adult level that my parents REALLY dont want me to have that and i should stop asking. how f-in hard is that to comprehend, nothin worse than a child who has total control over their parent.

if your kid shown sadness over beer or porn, the parents are going to make the child happy by giving the stuff to the them. It is ridiculious that the government has to tell me how to raise my children. All a form of communism and censorship.

Unfortunately there are plenty of bad parents out there who should be allowed children and will buy their kids 18 films / 18 game / rap music / stuff their kids with processed foods.
Theres no other alternative, its not like you can prosecute parent for making their kids fat, or buying them pron.

» List is useless
How is that list, printed in its entirety on any box that has ANY of the content listed, going to 'help' any parent? --How many games have "killing" in them? In Resistance2, you "kill" Chimera; in World At War, you kill Nazis; in Assassin's Creed, you kill. .....But, does this qualify any of these 3 games to be on the same list that includes "rape, incest, sodomy, sexual assault, etc"? --I don't think so. If I were a parent, I might be perfectly fine with my kid "killing" 100% fictional Chimera. I would not be so fine if the game included a scene with someone getting raped. ....The proposed list would then be 100% meaningless to me, in attempting to distinguish the true filth from the acceptable violence. And, if it has no value, why add another piece of governmental oversight? (Because, this obviously doesn't just mean that a label miraculously starts appearing on games: no, our taxpayer dollars will go to creating the committee which review ALL the games and then approves or disapproves of the label being applied or not to any game. ---No thanks; I'm fine with the ESRB spending its OWN money to do that.)

So by definition, you're saying kids can kill somebody because they don't like them?
Obviously not, so don't say something is relevant to something else when it has no relevancy whatsoever.
Also: Kids SHOULD be protected, but a locked box away from the public? A little overboard I think.

There sure is! Just look at the schools in your area. Are they performing well? In the old days (Before all this gangsta and rap garbage) Schools had a higher rate of graduation, better overall grades, and less discrimination. I agree with Justin on this one, in principle, so I give him a smiley! Oh, and it's fun to be racist! (Kinda, but not really!)

I guess you don't realize that there are rappers of ALL races not just black. GTFO and go back to school if you aren't already in it. If you're already in it, lrn2lrn.

White trash is also a problem, but it is the offspring of rappers and how 'gangster' they are. The worst we used to have were guys in thick leather jackets with over-jelled hair going "Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!" all the time. Racist or not, truth + truth. Entirely off-topic. End.

» some of this I agree with
I'm 17 and generally have no problem with rape and sodomy scenes, but its not something I enjoy watching. Makes me feel a little uneasy. After reading online about specific scenes in Manhunt 2 I decided not to play it, a little *too* graphic for me. Rockstar was asking for trouble with that game
specific warnings for stuff like that is fine, but I think the general "violence/extreme violence, gore, drug/alcohol use" suffices for
# COMMISSION OF A VIOLENT CRIME
# SUICIDE
# VIOLENT RACISM
# RELIGIOUS VIOLENCE
# SADO-MASOCHISM
# SEXUAL ASSAULT
# SEXUAL ACTIVITY
# MURDER
# MORBID VIOLENCE
# ILLEGAL USE OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL

why does it have to be video game scenes only? i have seen plenty of movies with rape and sodomy scenes, and i felt uncomfortable during those scenes.
i am also not aware of any game with rape/sodomy scenes but if someone does make one i would like a warning, because i dont want to see it
i have seen the clips of manhunt 2, all the extremely violent scenes (watched them to see what the hubbub was about), and its just downright creepy. any game that violent, with the violence passing thru the realm of "fun" and into the realm of psychopathic and way too real, should have descriptors on the box

This is not a bad bill compared to the other ones, this is just making sure minors don't get subjected to violence and other offensive material found in games targeted for mature gamers, but isn't that what the rating systems do?
Yeah it looks like the ratings are a little vague sometimes but maybe only in the US (ESRB), however in the EU the PEGI rating system is more specific, on the game boxes you have the age and icons that specify the content of the game and it covers some of the items on that list, as for the CERO in Japan i don't know much about it but i think it is the most flexible of the rating systems (I'm not really sure about this one).

That's fine.. And make sure all cell phones have a big "MAY CAUSE CANCER" warning and such. Anyway, this is a retarded bill.. A responsible parent shouldn't buy something they don't understand for their kid. If a kid asks for a game named "Manhunt" or "Grand Theft Auto" for example, a parent should use common sense.. A game named "Halo" .. they should think "What is this Halo?" and look at the game box.

» Suicide is a bit ridiculous
I can commit suicide in just about any game, from Super Mario to Halo, perhaps they need to change that to scripted suicide, even then that's a bit silly. The Koopa Troopers in Mario frequently are scripted to walk straight off a cliff. Realistic depiction of suicide, that could cover it?
They should also only list what the game has in it, otherwise these stickers will become a false alarm and quickly turn into Homer's "Everything is OK alarm" ie it only turns off when there's a problem.
If they just went well this game could have any of the following in it from stealing candy from a baby to dropping an a bomb on hiroshima, no one is going to pay any attention to the warning.
