Xbox Live Mature Content Off Limits To Kids

Once again we are reminded that kids accessing adult material is bad, and I don’t mean little jimmy getting into his dad’s DVD collection. No, this is serious hardcore mature gaming.

This time around it’s Microsoft spoiling junior’s illegal fun, having recently barred all child accounts from accessing the mature content on Xbox Live; DLC for Gears of War and the like are now off limits to users on child accounts.

Kotaku AU asked Microsoft why, in response Microsoft said: “Microsoft works with individual consumers to resolve customer concerns. We are working with individuals on this situation. New Zealand customers experiencing any issues can contact Xbox Customer Support for assistance by visiting www.xbox.com/en-nz/support.”

Although it’s all good and justifiable to protect the children. The kids will likely just create new adult accounts to access the mature material.
