The problem is that these 13 year olds are buying games with content made for an older demographic, the parents get pissed, and they blame the game companies. It's partially the parents' fault and partially the fault of lax enforcement of those silly 'Rated M for Mature!!!!' ESRB ratings.

My Guild Wars elementalist looks like a ho most of the time. At least I haven't been hit on, yet.

I think I'm one of the few game store employees who refuses to sell any of the GTA's (especially San Andreas) to anyone under 17

and don't stop. If you sold someone under the age of 18 pornography, you'd go to jail, but if you sold some kind BMX XXX or whatever it was called, the worst you could do is get fired. You're doing a great job doing this, it's better to have a pissed off 13 year old than a pissed off 40 year old mother.

yay for polygonal boobies. Really except for DoA i don't buy games for the sex content, that's what porn is for.
