What is in a Name

Published:

Description

The idea for this comic comes from my own knowledge of how the DS game ’The World Ends With You’ got it’s name and witnessing first-hand how parents react to cover-art and names over the age-ratings.

When you see a parent say their child can’t have one game because it ’looks’ abit too violent, but then let the child get a game you know to be extremely violent, just because it’s name, or cover-art, gave no clue to what the game was like.

Ugh, I feel you. Honestly, I don't think there's any harm in allowing a child to be exposed a bit to mature/violent games. As a kid I was exposed to (and subsequently traumatized by) some sort of M rated game (think it was Resident Evil or Devil May Cry?) and I'm fine... mostly... XD A little fear is good, it builds character and prepares kids for the real world.
