I haven’t talked about the game ratings thing at all lately, largely because Game Politics does it so much better than I do. Blogroll them if you’re not already.

That being said, GP turned me on to this story of the Virginia Legislature trying to get Mature games with labels that are at least 3 inches X 3 inches square (or put another way, covering up a full quarter of the front of a standard DVD game case). Clicky clicky for a general mockup.

Brenda Brathwaite goes on to point out the obvious: Game Ratings are already much larger and more prominent than movie ratings on DVD. This is not to say that there aren’t steps we can’t take to improve how our industry is percieved and that ratings are accurate. It would just be nice to see politicians display some appropriate perspective.
