    While I think a ban is a little much, no one wants to undergo epileptic seizures. I know...I've had a couple...not fun.

    Anyway, don't they already have that warning in the little manuals that come with the games? Or am I the only one that reads those things?

    I think so. But it's just more proof of the UK being more americanised (aka sueing being a way of life)

    I think they should make it more visible to parents or the folk that buy the game that it may cause epileptic seizures. No need to ban it, that's slightly taking the biscuit.

    If they ban epilepdic videogames, then that'll leave the UK with very little games to play...Though this screening idea doesn't sound too bad...
