While you’re driving your car on a road trip and the kids are playing video games in the back, it’ll be hard to monitor exactly what kind of games they are playing. Even though the make believe violence in video games hasn’t been proved to cause any violent tendencies, parents still like to know what their kids are playing. Here’s an infographic about the California Game Law looking to prevent the sale or rental of violent video games to minors.

    Not Senator, Governor, my mistake.

    To summarise, I’m concerned about this law in more ways than one, both the reasons justifying it and the reasons behind it are more than a little open to interpretation.

    If such a law is to exist, it must be fair, the whole idea that interaction makes something dangerous is never truly explained in any way, it’s just assumed to be ‘obvious’, it hails back to the days of Elvis and his gyrating hips being too suggestive for TV, there are as many reports suggesting that the passivity of sitting and watching a movie means that the person afterwards is worked up and overactive and likely to act out what they have just seen, but the fact is, no-one will ever try to pass a law to make movies AND video games use a compulsory system (both currently use voluntary ones).
