i loved this book

The only problem was, it wasn't a book.

Link to game?

It was the Super Mario All-Stars Wii port.

Star Wars Video Game Title Review:

Great fun, but more intense violence than most LEGO games.

TOO VIOLENT TOO INTENSE

I actually think their reviews get better the more violent the game is. Seriously, I looked up the most adult centered game I could think of, Heavy Rain, and the review was actually good.

But the review for Braid is hilarious. It's like they don't know whether to rate it for adults or 4 year olds.

What's Braid? I Googled it but I didn't find any game-related stuff.

Whoa. That looks like one weird game.

It's called Google.

There are several things with the right name and I don't know which to click.

How is it that half the people there don't like violent games, and yet Deus Ex: Human Revolution has a higher rating than most of the kids games?

TOO VIOLENT TOO INTENSE

Because parts coming off obviously LEGO characters is obviously too violet    Excuse me while I go search for stuff I like on this website *searches*

On Kim Possible:

85% say violence is an issue
85% say sexual content is an issue
80% say language is an issue
80% say there's too much drinking, drugs, or smoking
80% say they noticed product placement

...WHAT??????????? 0_o In what episode is there bad language or drugs? These people are over-sensitive to the max.

Some women and men characters are drawn quite voluptuously, including Kim, whose outfits always show her navel.

Lies.

How about... Portal (this should be fun  )

Parents need to know that this game contains some blood, the potential for the player to die, and some violence against inanimate objects.

Players are encouraged to form an emotional bond with an inanimate object, which they are later forced to destroy

Oh, companion cube. Is this really an issue? 

36% say sexual content is an issue

Are we playing the same game? 0_o

I think my favorite is what they tell parents to talk about concerning Portal with their kids:

Families can talk about the possibility of sapient machines in our future and what our ethical responsibilities might be. Because this is set in a future mostly absent of humans, families could also discuss dangers, both real and imaginary, that could cause human extinction.

The perfect thing to talk to your 5 year old about. On bring your daugher to work day.

Overprotective parents on pointless, fun games.

THE TRUE AMERICAN PARENT SOCIETY

The potential for the player to die? That's in most video games.

Yeah.    Over-protective parents NFTW....

Not to mention the whole adoption thing.

HUMAN ADULTS

ents need to know Portal 2 is a first-person action game but not a violent shooter. The gameplay is built around environmental puzzles -- how to get from point A to point B while avoiding C. Players have to figure out where to shoot portals, how to jump through them, and at what velocity and angle. There is some animated violence against enemy robots, and the player's character could get hurt by guns, turrets, and other objects, but the focus is on puzzle solving. Parents should note that cooperative play supports open voice communication, a feature that Common Sense Media does not recommend for pre-teen players.

SOME?

  Wow.... Some games they are hard on, others not so much.

Why are they so much nicer about Portal 2? And I'm shocked they didn't blow up about Rick's line about black belts... Must be rated for playing though the game and not paying attention to much. 

Common Sense Media has no common sense.
