Video Game Legislation

Four states (Texas, Georgia, Maryland, & North Carolina) and the District of Columbia have introduced legislation that would prohibit the sale of violent and sexually explicit video games to minors.

Mature video games receive the "M" rating for a reason – and clearly state on the box that they are not suitable for players under 17. Then again, so do R-rated movies. But there are no laws that punish theater owners for not enforcing those ratings.
