If Only “M” Really Meant “Mature”
That pleasant-natured, black & white “M” on the front of your favorite video game means a lot of things.
It means you have a scapegoat at the ready should your violent antics ever land you in a court of law, judged by a jury of your peers. (Fortunately, recent evidence indicates your peers aren’t that stupid.)
It means selling the game to someone who only looks 18 can cost you your job.
Unfortunately, an “M” rating doesn’t mean that a game is, well… mature.
