I would say its the rating systems fault for not being informative enough, even though you could argue that it is currently the best way of presenting a rating system currently for example, the giant M below the phrase 17+ on any product that should not be played by people not mature enough -It doesn't matter if your 3 or 30 if you can't handle it- to play it. All jokes aside parents need to learn more about these games before they give them to their children. Kids at a young age wish they were Sponge-bob, or any other character from their favorite TV show. There is allot more immersion in a game than a cartoon of course kid are going to be more violent. I don't know if you remember this quote or not, on an article a while ago, "38 percent of survey respondents said they were unaware of the ratings service provided by the Entertainment Software Rating Board" but if Parents can't recognize and understand the meaning of the big immediately noticeable white box on the front & back cover of every game, they shouldn't be considered suitable parents.
I think the only way kids will receive games suitable for their age group is if their parents are gamers too, and only gamers can understand that.
@MoreThot I wouldn't be so sure, I would say its the rating systems fault for not being informative enough, even though you could argue that it is currently the best way of presenting a rating system currently for example, the giant M below the phrase 17+ on any product that should not be played by people not mature enough -It doesn't matter if your 3 or 30 if you can't handle it- to play it.

The only exclusives for Xbox one i saw that I'm looking forward to right now is Below, DR3, Quantum Break, and maybe Ryse but right now I'm not exited about the QTE packed combat
