LOL......it's so funny my heads gonna fall off my shoulders. When will these bible bashing yanks get in toucch with reality. Go around that damn big country of yours and put a few undercover cops behind the counter at a few EBs.

If said undercover cops spends a week observing the publics purchases they will see first hand that parents will end up buying the games for their kids in the end, even when staff warn the parents about the games content beforehand.

I can see where this is going. I'd so like to see stores making a parent sign a contract for a 18 cert game that requires their signature before sale. Both parties keep a copy as you do when you purchase with plastic sometimes. The contract would simply say "on your head be it if anything weird happens, you knew the risks since the person who served you warned you." Keep a database of records and if anything happened the stores have proof to take to court to defend themselves. All they'd have to do then is make sure every state uses it effectively.

This all seems silly when you can purchase games online though too.

Joj, for that to stick the sales assistance would have to read the contract to the customer before each sale. Otherwise the customer could (successfully) counter with "who has time to read a countract when there's a big queue^H^H^H^H^H line of people behind you"

That's how fscked up that country is.

Just an example of what could be done to help. I'm sure the stores would train staff in the why and whatevers of the contract before it would be used.

If anyone has any better ideas by all means do post them.

I used to work in an EB over here in America. I used to relagate based on each customer. Punk asses who wanted GTA would get turned. But sensible kids who were civil and seemed decent I'd let slip. You should see how many parents didn't care about violence or drug use or sex. "Oh there gonna see it eventually." THERE TWELVE! DAMN WOMAN! Oh how many kids were saddened when they couldn't take home Conker though. I thought I had a good system of relagating who deserves M games, who won't get in trouble for playing M games, etc.
