If it hasn't been posted already, I'm sure Game Politics has either covered it or will cover it soon. Link: http://www.gamepolitics.com/
I have to say the list is laughable. But it's probably because I think the National Institute on Media and the Family is a joke. These people need to know kids aren't going to be buying these games by themselves, adults/young adults are. After all, kids are far more likely to get their hands on violent movies or books (Bible, anyone?) than actual video games. And yet, those types of media never seem to spark the moral outrage from these folks like video games do.
And do they need to hide the list from non-members? That's a lot of help to the parents they want to reach.
I hate the dumb Culture War
