Dr. Tanya Byron's violent video games report
#1
Long story short: Dr. Tanya Byron was assigned several months ago by the UK government to lead a research study that would delve into violent video gaming, and to see if the region's two leading ratings boards (BBFC, PEGI) were adequate to address them.

Gamesindustry has a pretty long interview with Dr. Byron, which summarizes what the research calls for.

I invite the fellow RR members to look over the interview when they have time. controversial context aside, Dr. Byron offers some surprisingly balanced insight regarding what measures Europe could take.
