The image above was taken from the "Product Details" section of the Amazon listing for Grand Theft Auto IV. As you can see, Amazon has begun tagging video games with a "recommended age", based on their content. As you can also see, the age range tops out at 20. The company provides a similar service for the items listed in their Toys and Games department.
In other words, Amazon believes that video games are toys and that people over the age of 20 shouldn't be interested in them. What a joke!

Obsidian has included sex-scenes to its upcoming RPG Alpha Protocol, and producer Nathan Davis promises that the horizontal bits are “satisfying” but “tasteful” with no gameplay elements involved - a la God of War.“It’s tasteful,” “We do some things with our cinematics, too. It isn’t just like a hand up on a thing! We cut around it a little bit. It’s an American game! What can I say? There are limits to what we can do there.“I’ve seen a few of the cinematics for those and it ends up being satisfying without being… you know… over… you know?“No God of War sex scenes! We don’t have that.”Players will be able to have numerous partners with NPCs, along with female soldier Sie and handler Mina - which will impact the game’s various endings.

The maker of an upcoming video game starring Jack Black has accused gaming giant Activision in a lawsuit of trying to kill the project to preserve its popular "Guitar Hero" franchise.
The allegations were made in a countersuit filed last week by San Francisco-based Double Fine Productions against Activision Entertainment Inc., which sued the gamemaker in June. Activision's suit aimed to stop release of "Brutal Legend" by rival firm Electronic Arts.
"Brutal Legend" is scheduled for release in October. It features Black as a heavy-metal roadie transported to a mythical ancient world to fight evil.
A hearing is scheduled July 30 on a motion by Activision to block the game's release.
Double Fine's countersuit contends Activision's lawsuit was filed to hurt the company and the game, and that it was involved in unlawful business practices and a conspiracy to protect "Guitar Hero" sales.
Activision's "purpose is not only to cancel 'Brutal Legend,' but to kill it completely so that 'Guitar Hero' would not have to face the competition," the lawsuit claims.
