Some games have Age Rtaing swhich I believe should be different. Such as:

Name Current Rating My Rating Reason

Ratchet and Clank 2 3+ 7+ Violence
Simpsons Road Rage 3+ 7+ Occ. Bad Language
Simpsons Wrestling 3+ 7+ Occ. Bad Language

People ussually sell games that have an age rating higher than the person who is going to buy it, to make MONEY!

you think it will ever happen?
more chance they will make a money making scam like report a shop that sold you a game underage and get a reward equivilent to 10% what mr blair gets..

eg: blair gets £500 you get £50 see wotks dosn't it and mr blair wins (nothing unusual)

I don't think they should bother with age ratings anymore because mommy will buy little Johnny the game anyway just to shut him up whenever his birthday or Christmas arrives.

Instead they should have a *don't blame us if little Timmy goes on a murderous rampage after playing our game, maybe if you'd paid attention to him while he was growing up instead of letting computers and the television raise your kid he would have turned out normal*.......message. Course you'd need a bigger box for all that.

Fake moustache falls off. OH ****!

Yeah, but ID cards wouldn't be much use if the guys at the shop didn't bother to ask for them, alot of people would still find it easy to get round the Age Ratings.

How come I've seen two versions of THPS2 9when it was still ELSPA and not PEGI)? One is 11+, the other is 15+.

Do you notice that you only get asked for your age when you buy games over 11+? I swear I've seen plenty of 8 year old kids taking a copy of Tony Hawks 2 (11+, in case you're not familiar) away from the counter in a plastic bag.
