A Californian law that made it illegal to sell or rent violent or sexually explicit games to children has been blocked by a US federal judge.

Citing freedom of speech worries US district judge Ronald Whyte granted an injunction to stop the law coming into force on 1 January.

Judge Whyte also questioned whether it was possible to ban sales to minors.

The ruling comes as US politicians draft national laws to stop the sale of adult-themed games to children.
