ESRB Gets a Slap From Publishers
It used to be that you could head on over to the ESRB website and possibly find out about unannounced games through the content rating listings, well not anymore! It appears that Publishers get all verklempt (see SNL) when a game was announced outside of their marketing schedule – which is completely understandable.
Now the ESRB’s online submission form will allow publishers to select a date when the ESRB is given the go ahead to publish the ratings. This is one less way for the public to seek out info on upcoming game releases and other secrets, but there are other ways that we’ve seen floating around including those who peak into their game’s code to find hints of possible sequels. Remember this?
