Someone has too much time on their hands.

everything seems fine to me, games can be as violent as they want for all I care.

I think that games should have ratings, but you shouldn't have to be a certain age to buy them. You can buy CD's with the "F" word left and right, but you can't buy a game because it has red pixels in it? Please.
The RE series was never really that violent, at least I didn't think so. Also, it was always too predictable and involved too much item-searching, like Silent Hill. Horror/Violent games need to concentrate more on ways of dispatching hellish demons than about the "story" and "plot".

1.) Games do have ratings.

2.) If you didnt need to be a certain age to buy them, why have the ratings?

I know that games have ratings. What's the point of having the rating? So parents can decide what they want their child to be exposed to. Nothing says that a 7-year old can't go and buy GTA 2 right now. I'm not saying he shouldn't have that right. My point is that somebody (i.e. parental units) should have enough authority to say "No, you're too young to play this, Jimmy." I think it would solve a lot of problems. You're not going to stop a kid from buying an "M" game. He'll get it from somewhere that will sell it to him. Same with beer, porn, or cigarettes. I guess I'm trying to say that it should be more about parenting and less about rtings. I wish my dad would have stopped me from renting "Doom" when I was 12, because it scared the **** out of me. Making better ratings systems will make our society better.

Enforcing the ratings is a matter of law. The ESA (creators of the ESRB) can only make the ratings, they have no authority to enforce them. It's an issue that people need to take up with the Government.

And honestly, where I come from I couldn't buy games that were rated M when I was 13. They card you around here; I'm dead serious. Same with CD's with explicit lyrics.

You Americans and your F-word...

How can 1 word be worse than all this visual violence?

Don't get me wrong, I never say the F word, the worst thing I say is sh!t...

you need ID in order to rent GTA 3 and VC when it came out around here, i'm not sure whether it was policy or law. And i disagree with dropCGCF, I think that plot and story is more important that blasting mutants till their dead, and then blastin some more, but that may be just because i'm an RPG fan.
