	quote Q: Will we see areas that you have to be 18 in order to enter? PE: Yes, probably. In the short-term, there probably won’t be many but in the long-term, we expect to see them. For instance, a casino or even somewhere you can go and see 18-rated trailers for games. That isn’t anything particularly sinister, but obviously, you’d have to prevent 12-year-olds going in there. Obviously, there are other 18-plus areas that you could imagine, but some of those might not come to fruition. But we have the ability to age-protect areas, and I think that’s something that we will inevitably make use of. Link: http://threespeech.com/blog/?p=588#more-588 Gamegrep link: http://www.gamegrep.com/news/5188-ps3_home_to_feature_18_area Well this seems rather interesting, I suppose its a good idea for movie trailers and possibly "adult content" but im not sure how they are gonna monitor who really is above and below the age restrictions so we will see how this works out. Thoughts? ------------------- Time you enjoyed wasting is not wasted time.

	All they need to do to cover their arses, is simply have some form of Age check...it doesn't have to be reliable either, it can be as simple as it reading your PSN profile to check your registered age (which is what will probably happen), and it might ask for a confirmation of your age (birthdate), and whether you want to access the areas... There is supposed to be a casino type thing eventually too... Porn (nudity) type stuff, is probably not likely to take off, at least not for some time... ------------------- 8700th Post

	He means in the sense that they wont add it. And it's about right that they don't because they could unknowingly (and this is very easy to do) let a 12 year old into an "Adults Only" section where they can view pretty much anything. It's all to do with changing your "DOB" that you've entered, and there you go you can watch any content at any time. They'd probably be criticised for anything anything pornographic in "HOME" and I agree to them leaving it out personally. It's a sort of Game, not a fantasy world where your go to watch porn. ------------------- FFXII\|Neoportal Home\|Final Fantasy Portal\|Stargate Portal\|Metal Gear Portal\|FFXIII
