They are just recommended ratings. Just like R-rated movies: There's no law against watching them at any age, as long as you have a parent or someone like that buying the tickets/DVD/whatever.

Im pretty sure the law applies to parties trying to show said movies...for example, a cinema explicitly cannot show an R movie to anyone under 18 (In Aus anyway, not sure what the deal is in US), at all, with or without parental consent...Im not sure what the deal is for parents showing their kids stuff like that, but Im sure its the same, with a "If we dont see it then we wont do anything about it" tag...
The bottom line is, at least here, they are regarded as law, but really only enforced in business and stuff due to it being too hard to police every household situation...much like beer and stuff...
Its really a joke but here in usa at EBGAMES I get carded for games with the M for mature on em. Anything without T for teen gets people wanting to ask you for ID. Hell im 30 and I still cant buy a lighter at a store without being carded... yea yea i know its the law but jebus I just walked right across the street to the liquor store got the lighter no ID. That store sure showed me.

I think those age ratings aren't recommendations, but things you have to abide by law.
Oh, right. I do apologise CSI-Gamer.

In other news however, Im 20...
it isn't arguing it is a discussion
Can u stop with the seconds??:D
Would you prefer minutes?

nano seconds maybe or decades
Yes, because when you ask a woman her age, it will forever and always be 21. (Or maybe it's 29. I forget. Help me out here, ladies!)

Better yet, I believe in reincarnation, so add a few zeros after "22". :P
