I see you've got an explanation on PEGI ratings for games, but I wondered if it was also worth linking to the ESRB website? I know it's an American site, but it has more detailed explanations of what the games involve than PEGI, think it might be useful for parents who are feeling pressured by their children to buy the latest games?

I know a lot of people lately haven't realised what content is in games like GTA, and the knowledge of what is actually involved might make it easier for them to make the right decision for their children. World of difference between being told a game is an 18 and being told the game refers to necrophilia etc.
