VG Lawyer: SCOTUS Loss Would Cost Industry Jobs, Stifle Creativity

What WOULD the situation be for something like Xbox Live?  If the law was upheld, would retailers have to limit who they sold Microsoft points cards to?  

Probably not, because those cards are more like pre-paid phone cards.

If a minor buys a violent game off the marketplace, who is held responsible? 

The parent, because a minor has to have parental permission(in the form of a credit card) to join XBox Live. Though a minor could just claim he's 18 to offset that.

Geaux Saints, Geaux Tigers, Geaux Hornets, Jack Thompson can geaux chase a chupacabra. Hell will stay frozen over for quite a while since the Saints won the Super Bowl.

It would be interesting in how indie developers or even flash games developers would react if the law is approved. Maybe they will start to create violent content that can be obtain by anyone dispate their age. It´s just a thought, but it would be interesting that independent creators would take the route that mainstream industry would forced to left if the law gets passed. Of course, I expect that doesn´t never happens.

"It also took the industry 50 or so years to recover. Thats half a decade!!!!!"

1.  That would be half a century.

2.  That's not true anyway.
