Honestly, was it wrong of me to do this?
I work at GameStop and today a Latino woman and her son came in. The son (who looked like he was around 13 or 14 years old) spoke English fine but the woman had very broken English. What I could make out from her is that she wanted to pre-order Halo Reach for her son. I was very concerned because she might not realize what kind of violence and language she would be exposing her son to so I had my other GameStop employee (his name is Ricardo, speaks Spanish and English) warn her about the game's violence in Spanish and she was able to understand and then scolded her son for trying to get such a game. Did I do the right thing?

What has the education system come to these days?[/quote] what I'm saying is that he shouldn't have prevented the kid from buying the game, that the ESRB overreacted on and decided to make it M for having Blood and violence. the kid will probably go grab black ops later and from what I've seen of WaW, that has so many F bombs and gore scenes the battlefield is basically a pool of blood. and to those saying "ONE LEWSSS SQUEKIR UAY!!" there is a mute button you know.[/quote] my friend I agree the ESRB overreacted I've seen a T game rated T for blood, gore and violence where aliens are sliced in half by a knife (the game is Star Wars Republic Commando) but i guess the ESRB is a little stereotypic... also the rest of the GamStop employies would have done the same thing. also he could have lost his job had you read the posts above.[/quote] from what I've seen, if it has star wars in the title, ESRB says "T" if it has Halo or any other game known to have M in it, ESRB rushes to make it M.
