"Labour MP and long-term opponent of the games industry Keith Vaz has tabled his FIFTH early day motion about violent video games.

This time the parliamentarian is using Andres Breivik’s admission that he played Call of Duty as the ammunition for his attack.

“That this House is reminded of the consequences of the ineffectual Pan European Game Information (PEGI) classification system for video games following the testimony of Anders Breivik about the tragic events in Norway in July 2011,” the EDM reads.

“Notes that in his submission of evidence to the court Breivik describes how he trained for the attacks using the video game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare; is disturbed that Breivik used the game to help hone his `target acquisition' and the suggestion that the simulation prepared him for the attacks"

Anyone else think he's a total tool (my opinion) and could spend his time better on "real" problems in Britain.

“That this House is reminded of the consequences of the ineffectual Pan European Game Information (PEGI) classification system for video games following the testimony of Anders Breivik about the tragic events in Norway in July 2011,” the EDM reads.PEGI ratings are no more nor less effective than BBFC ratings or, for that matter, the US ones (forgot the name).

The problem is, and has always been, the same: parents first and foremost, and retailers to a lesser extent, allowing the sale of rated games for underage consumption.

A worse problem once you consider online sales (where the retailer can't possibly tell the parents are buying for underage).

No easy way to solve it.

Of course, the above (the 'validity' and 'existence' of a problem in the first place) presumes that mature/adult-rated games are indeed having a psychological influence on underage kids. That has still not been demonstrated or proven.
