The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) only RATES games. They don't RESTRICT them to such an audience. It is basically 'recommended' to this age group, not RESTRICTED to it. Some people use the ESRB rating as a backup in arguments such as "lel ur 11 u shuldnt play cod and gta", which is not logical because you are entitled to the right to play that game if you wish, regardless of age, gender, ethnic background, etc. etc. For example, lets make this into a scenario. Bobby is playing with his friend Joe. Joe makes a castle out of blocks, and he asks Bobby to rate it. Just because Bobby rates it 10/10 doesn't actually mean it's 10/10, it can be anything else. It is Bobby's perspective, view, opinion, and choice to make it 10/10. Once again, Bobby's 10/10 rating doesn't mean that Joe's castle actually is 10/10. It can be 9/10, 7.5/10, heck, it can even be 0/10/.
I'm 11, and I am entitled to play any game I wish. That's final. |

Do you really think I'd write a small article on OT about the ESRB and not even know one of the basic facts of the ESRB? |

@meet >Why did a discussion about ESRB turn into a discussion about lego castles?
Are you too ignorant to fully read the entire article? I made a scenario based on my paragraph which would make it easier to understand what I was trying to say. |

Of course.
Play all of the Battlefield, Call of Duty and Grand Theft Auto you want. But what you don't realize with gaming, is that it's messing up your brain. |

@nauticle Of course, your honor. I am so sorry, your majesty.
@colie Do you see me blowing peoples head off with a mini-uzi while riding a hijacked car down the highway, swearing, doing drugs, drinking alcohol and exceeding the speed limit? |
