It’s not typically my goal to stop people from reading this site, but if you’ve happened to stumble upon us and think that we might be able to lift the curtain on the quickly evolving world of video games we thank you for the optimism but we’d like to point you in a different direction.

Started by John Davison (formerly of 1Up) and Ira Becker (executive vice president of The Game Group) as a guide for parents to gain a better understanding of what content lies under the shrink wrap and on that soon-to-be-scratched disc that just cost them $60. The site is extremely well set up with an impressive database of games and a high level of available interactivity where community members can lend their own opinion about the games. Hopefully this site will help sort out the mess for people who actually care about what their child is doing.
