I believe this is called ‘parental controls’. Seriously, a kid can’t go into Game and buy FEAR 2, they won’t let him, so why don’t the parents just, you know, STOP BUYING IT FOR THEM.

And yeah, PS3 has parental controls, too.

No idea about the others but the 360 certainly has parental controls.

This red button bullshit is the funniest thing I’ve read in ages.

It’s amazing how they’ve taken ages to come up with a vague idea that perhaps you should be able to turn stuff off. Don’t all modern consoles have parental controls anyway?
