California Bars Violent Video Games to Minors
California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger ignored strong lobbying from software makers and signed legislation on Friday that bans the sale of violent video games to children.
Passed by the California legislature last month, the ban on selling violent video games to children follows heated national debate after game publisher Take-Two Interactive Software Inc. pulled its best-selling game “Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas” from retailers this summer because of hidden sex scenes.
“I am a parent myself and I think this is extremely important that we know what our kids watch or what kind of games that they play,” Schwarzenegger told reporters.
