Video Games
Timeline

 1976: ‘Deathrace’ encouraged players to run over
    gremlins
   1983: ‘Cluster’s Revenge’ player required to avoid arrows
    and rape a Native American woman tied to a cactus
   1993: ‘Mortal Kombat’ caused a media storm
   2004: ‘Manhunt’ was wrongly implicated in the murder
    of Stefan Pakeerah
   2007: ‘Manhunt 2’ is rejected by BBFC for constantly
    encouraging visceral killing with little distancing.
   2011: ‘Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’ is biggest video
    game of all time
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xjCdN_rWCE
BBFC: Video Game Classification

 Others include:
 ‘Harvester’ was first game to be cut by BBFC
 ‘The Punisher’ had changes made to minimise effects
 of brutal and sadistic interrogations
BBFC: Video Game Classification

 These controversial games resulted in tabloid
  newspapers calling for all games to come under the
  VRA
 Following this, the industry set up a voluntary rating
  system administered by the Video Standards Council
 Today, the pan-European PEGI system is in place
 Now games that do no require a mandatory BBFC
  rating receive the voluntary PEGI one instead
How The Games Are Classified

 Games submitted then tested by specialists in the IT
    department
   The titles of the games are examined
   The actual game is played for up to five hours
   Once finished playing, the team discuss any issues
    that have arisen
   The decision is then made in line with the BBFC’s
    guidelines
The Byron Report

 Recognise the popularity of games in young people and
  children but are concerned over potentially inappropriate
  material e.g. Violence
 See a generational divide amongst parents and their
  children
 Propose that there should be a national strategy for child
  Internet safety which involves better self-regulation and
  provision of information and education for children and
  families
 Propose a reformation of the classification system for
  video games stating that gaming providers should raise
  awareness of what is in games
Parents Want Independent Regulation

 Parents concerned about content of video games
 Parents think video games may affect behaviour of
  some children
 Parents think video games should be regulated by an
  independent regulator
 Parents think video game ratings should reflect the
  concerns of UK parents
 Parents think it would help them if video games used
  same ratings as films and DVD’s
Games Classification-For or Against

For                                         Against
There are examples of young people’s        Shouldn’t we just leave the decision for
behaviour being affected by playing video   parents to choose what they want to buy
games. Shouldn’t we prevent that from       for their child rather than have a national
happening?                                  decision forced upon them?
75% of parents want video games to be       The extreme cases in which the young
classified so shouldn’t we respect their    person has taken the game far too
concerns?                                   seriously and killed someone have not
                                            been proven enough. No strong evidence.
                                            The cost of regulating the way the Byron
                                            report wants will be costly for the BBFC


                                            Other factors contribute too, such as
                                            watching violence on T.V. (WWE etc.)

Video Games Presentation

  • 2. Timeline  1976: ‘Deathrace’ encouraged players to run over gremlins  1983: ‘Cluster’s Revenge’ player required to avoid arrows and rape a Native American woman tied to a cactus  1993: ‘Mortal Kombat’ caused a media storm  2004: ‘Manhunt’ was wrongly implicated in the murder of Stefan Pakeerah  2007: ‘Manhunt 2’ is rejected by BBFC for constantly encouraging visceral killing with little distancing.  2011: ‘Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’ is biggest video game of all time http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xjCdN_rWCE
  • 3. BBFC: Video Game Classification  Others include:  ‘Harvester’ was first game to be cut by BBFC  ‘The Punisher’ had changes made to minimise effects of brutal and sadistic interrogations
  • 4. BBFC: Video Game Classification  These controversial games resulted in tabloid newspapers calling for all games to come under the VRA  Following this, the industry set up a voluntary rating system administered by the Video Standards Council  Today, the pan-European PEGI system is in place  Now games that do no require a mandatory BBFC rating receive the voluntary PEGI one instead
  • 5. How The Games Are Classified  Games submitted then tested by specialists in the IT department  The titles of the games are examined  The actual game is played for up to five hours  Once finished playing, the team discuss any issues that have arisen  The decision is then made in line with the BBFC’s guidelines
  • 6. The Byron Report  Recognise the popularity of games in young people and children but are concerned over potentially inappropriate material e.g. Violence  See a generational divide amongst parents and their children  Propose that there should be a national strategy for child Internet safety which involves better self-regulation and provision of information and education for children and families  Propose a reformation of the classification system for video games stating that gaming providers should raise awareness of what is in games
  • 7. Parents Want Independent Regulation  Parents concerned about content of video games  Parents think video games may affect behaviour of some children  Parents think video games should be regulated by an independent regulator  Parents think video game ratings should reflect the concerns of UK parents  Parents think it would help them if video games used same ratings as films and DVD’s
  • 8. Games Classification-For or Against For Against There are examples of young people’s Shouldn’t we just leave the decision for behaviour being affected by playing video parents to choose what they want to buy games. Shouldn’t we prevent that from for their child rather than have a national happening? decision forced upon them? 75% of parents want video games to be The extreme cases in which the young classified so shouldn’t we respect their person has taken the game far too concerns? seriously and killed someone have not been proven enough. No strong evidence. The cost of regulating the way the Byron report wants will be costly for the BBFC Other factors contribute too, such as watching violence on T.V. (WWE etc.)
