PS3 Parental Controls
Posted on Mar 2, 08 06:53 PM PDT

Parental controls sound pretty draconian, but hey - if a kid is not yet mature enough to choose what he/she can listen/play/watch, then this is where the authority of the parents come in. The PS3 is equipped with rather ambiguous parental controls, as they don't go by the standard ESRB ratings that its competitors, the Xbox 360 and Wii do. Instead, Sony uses levels ranging from levels 1 to 11 (what a skewed scale), where a lower number denotes a more restrictive form of media. Logically speaking, the higher the level, the more restrictive it would be but I guess Sony thinks otherwise. A "5", being the middle ground, is the equivalent of a Teen rating.
