Computer Game Ratings

March 27, 2008

BBC Breakfast reported on Dr Tanya Byron’s recommendation that computer games be more comprehensively rated with a headline that ratings should be introduced to stop children becoming desensitised to violence.

I should like to know how that might happen! I do try to be optimistic in life, but I doubt very much that once he has the game in his possession, the teenager spends very much time thinking about how seriously to take the game based upon its rating.

Thankfully, BBC On-Line has a  better (though admittedly duller) headline to go with the story.
