The goods:
The Timothy Plan is an investment group offering a number of funds organized around investing in "moral" companies which do not profit from certain activities. Their website lists "abortion, pörnography [sic], anti-family entertainment, non-married lifestyles, alcohol, tobacco and gambling" as their hot-button issues. They also offer "moral audits" of your investment portfolio.
They've just released two guides on video games, effectively quantizing the moral content of each game on their list. I'm actually pretty happy about this because:
1) They're offering people who care a way to filter the media intake of their children according to criteria they agree upon.
2) The prurient crank in me sees this as an easy way to take the piss and find where all the good stuff is. Too bad it seems to be a lineup of the usual suspects (bang for your buck, GTA IV/Saints Row 2 offer the most offensive content, with Fallout 3 and Manhunt 2 tied for second place. Curious that they are all sequels.) rather than an exhaustive list, but this was the first I had ever heard of Onechanbara: Bikini Zombie Slayers.
Ars digs deeper into the role of GLBT content in the ranking schema, which is worth your read as well.
