September 29,2013 Four weeks into the season the NFL has been split into the haves and have-nots. There were four undefeated teams—a couple of which that have looked absolutely terrifying. On the other end of the spectrum there were still five win-less teams heading into Week 4 of NFL football. And the question on everyone’s mind is, how is that even possible?

Should companies be able to create and sell these games? So how do you know what your kids are playing? Do you let them buy the video games or do you pick them out? You can't possibly know if every video game is inappropriate right? Do you need help? In 1994 the ESRB (Entertainment Software Rating Board) was formed to help inform consumers what's actually in these video games. They created a rating system and have rated over 18,000 video games since 1993. These ratings can be found on every box and most consoles (including XBox360, Playstation 3, and Nintendo Wii) will not license a video game without these ratings on every box.
