I think Cerek's post at the beginning counts, actually. Can't think of any reason it wouldn't. And many here have called for some kind of regulation, which, I think, is "anything of the sort".
And how is the regulation system obviously flawed? The games clearly state on them that they are not intended for kids. It is, in many places, illegal to give them to kids. The kids still play them, yes, but the system is not any more flawed than the system for the distribution of any other product. I have personally witnessed people under 18 drinking and smoking. How are video games different?
