18 is adult in our country (USA) so you should be fineLProjektST
Some states put adult content, ie porn as being 21 or older. May be different on this but Im pretty sure it depends on your state. Some are 18 others are 21.
The cutoff age for Adult Only games is 18. The cutoff for Mature games is 17. The ESRB also distinguishes the two by saying that AO games should only be played by people 18 or older, while Mature games are better suited to people 17 and older. Seems like a meaningless difference to me. The AO rating should be reworked or completely abolished.
So people 21 and under can go to war and see all these things in real life but God forbid that they see it on TV. VIVA BUSH!!AlCoCeR_AlVaRo
Viva America, actually. We've been sending 18-year olds to war since before Bush was born. Not all of our problems can be put on the president. ;)

Well it seems like their trying to imitate the MPAAs R and NC-17 ratings (which are worded in basically the same way as the two ESRB ratings, save for the fact that NC-17 features 17 as the cutoff point)

Both are pretty ridiculous and need to be re-thought. Like why can you watch the highest rating for a movie at 17 but can't play the highest ranked game till 18? Some M rated movies are much worse than Manhunt 2 and don't me get started on NC-17. It's a mess how both rating systems work.
While I see your point of "What's only one year between 17 and 18?" The problem is they have to make a cut-off somewhere and that's just the one they chose for obvious reasons of the legal difference between a minor and an adult. If they make it 17 because it's only a year off from 18 so it's no big deal. Then the 16 year olds think it's only one year off etc.Â
Considering this game is coming out for the Wii maybe this will take the "kiddy" name away from Nintendo. Also I hope that Rockstar reaches a deal to release GTA 4 on the Wii and make it good.
