It's tame compared to GTA, sure, but it isn't exactly Super Mario Brothers. In the study the repetition and duration were key, and you don't get the same sustained hours out of a single-player game as you do out of an MMORPG.

Kamisaki said "Raventh, you have a good point, but actually, the AO rating will be effective in keeping the game out of the hands of a lot more people than the M rating would. Not because parents are magically more responsible, just because none of the big retail chains will sell the game anymore. That's why it's a big deal for Rockstar."
Eb games still sells it. Funny, we've sold soooo many more now that it's "dirty". Not to kids (since we are really good about not selling mature games to minors) but to adults buying 5 copies to sell on ebay. All this stupid "mod" did was make this a collector's item. sheesh.
