I think that the UK classification is too sensitive, look at germany and hardcore pornography can be shown on late night TV, we cant legally get that on DVD`s,

the point about Tarrantino getting 12 in france as its seen as creative and artistic, over here its just the focus on blood and swearing gets it a 18+, the UK needs to grow up, and stop giggling like school girls.

Previous poster is wrong with a capital 'W' - the BBFC pass loads of this stuff now - check their website. Hardcore porn was legalised for DVD sale several years ago now - visit your local licensed sex shop to open your eyes.

Isn't it time the games world started to just get on with doing what they do best and produce some decent stuff for all us games players to play and let the regulators regulate....enough already.

As long as I get the games I want I don't give a rats arse who rates it.

And even if some people don't know who PEGI is surly to god they know what a big 16+ means

Using germany was a bad example. yes they dont have ANY hang ups over sex.

But they have LOTS of censorship laws regarding violence in media be it in games or movies/tv/etc.

Good luck getting any game past the german censors if it has red blood in it...
