Probably, lol. Most of these fights on children's entertainment usually end up failing unless its a videogame for some reason.

Hehe, In 1991/92 there was a large controversy over Mortal Kombat and Night Trap, deeming the games too violent (Mortal Kombat and Night Trap) or sexist (A wide number of games). Night Trap caught alot of attention from people, and was cited as being a game which is "an effort to trap and kill women", "disgusting" and "promoting child abuse." These are from non-gamers now. This was a big deal back then, where now its just an "eh" thing. Toys 'r' Us pulled Night Trap and Mortal Kombat from shelves during this squabble though. I think this was the only case where non-gamers/parents won a fight against an inanimate object.. There may be more though XD

I wasnt but two or three, heh. Thats how they came up with the crippling ESRB ratings, after this whole deal went down.

Oh...that explains why some of my older games don't have ratings on them...it's not like anyone pays attention to the ratings anyways. :heh:

^_^ In Georgia, you have to be 18 to buy m-rated games, and yet you can be 11 and buy a r-rated movie?

Yeah, its annoying. My friends have to get me to buy their games for them, since one of them cant prove he's 18, and his brother is 17. DX Sometimes they wont let be buy the games for them either, but I think thats just that guy being anal though.

He doesnt have a form of ID yet other than the school ID, and the school ID doesnt show the birthday on it.
