My idea is to put up on a games page it's rating. Like Teen, Everone, Mature, etc.
What do think?

Rating systems are different from country to country so it would be rather useless.

I voted yes without really knowing what the question was really about.

My real answer would be no.

No reason to be sorry. It was a good idea but it is rather inpractical to put it into service.

Maybe just be sure to mention if a game is very gory/adult in the review...

Well the reviewer might say that a game is for children - or only for dirty perverts,...
But I'm not for a rating system. Just where would you put let's say Battle Chess - it's a chess for crying out loud - but you might rate it 15+ because the knight chops off all limbs before killing the opponent's piece...

Seabatations is right! Reviewer should mention what kind of game it is, if that's useful. For certain games there is no need even for that.

I think that current ratings system is fine and quite enough. We can ses editors rating (should be from man who really played the game) and people's rating. If you ask me, this shouldn't change at all.

As paul said: good to see new ideas
