BBFC overturn decsion to ban Manhunt 2

I was just reading the home page and the news section and came across the story of the BBFC overturning the decision to have Manhunt 2 banned in the UK. Its a good day for the adults in the gaming world, as the first one was sadly singled out when a child took this game and re-enacted it on the streets and murdered someone. Yes it is sad for the murder victims family, but where was that childs mother when he was playing this game in his bedroom. She didnt check the content of the game and she didnt even buy the game for him.

I personally think that the all the big stores who sell these games are somewhat at the centre of the blame game because it is extremely hard to tell these days how old a child is without having an ID card to show at the counter. But I also think that parents should play a big part in the blame game also, they need to be checking the content that their children are watching and it will stop all the bannng of videos games, otherwise in my own personal opinion t is only going to get worse. Where is the banning going to stop. Are they gong to start banning violent acton movies ? WHy not even ban Horror movies as well because they can be just as bad and influential to the younger mind!!
