WTH is the ESRB coming to... i mean waving your hands around a certain way to do things in the game will make it suitable for adults only instead of mature audiences???? how the hell can WAVING YOUR HANDS AROUND IN A CERTAIN WAY make a game be rated AO instead OF M???

i Really hope that the controls were not the deciding factor in Manhunt 2's rating of AO instead of M, if so thats just plain ridiculous.

What about the games in the arcade where you shoot people with a gun look-alike? What ratings do they give them?

Using the Wiimote to rip someone's balls off is way more nuts then just hitting a button. Remember Nintendo marketed the Wiimote to make gaming more real, for better or worse.

And also why the UK ban affects the PS2 version too.

Heh, i've just had a thought. How many Manhunt 2 threads have there been today? To be honest, Rockstar could be playing us all for chumps and just re-submit the *real* version to the ESRB. You know, intentionally make the ESRB test material extra grusome to build some hype?

House of the Dead should be rated AO. It teaches kids how to shoot guns.

People say that the Wii's controls are more intuitive and immersive. Maybe people don't want to see an immersive murder simulator...

The entire system is ridiculous. Games, and media in general, have become more mature and more violent over the past 40 years, and yet, violent crime rates have gone down in that time. Everyone needs to open their eyes and stop wasting time with this scapegoat.
