Yes but these days the games are becoming more than just "pixels." If you've seen any of the new shooter games the graphics are starting to become very realistic. It's nothing like your old Mario made up of a bunch of blocks throwing what kind of looks like a fireball.

In Black Ops 2 you don't shoot a pixel, you shoot what looks exactly like a human being and then see blood squirt out of their head. There are 17+ age ratings for these games but we all know damn well the young kids also play them, and I don't see how it can be a good thing for them to see such things, let alone play them for hours on end and be completely obsessed with it.
