China Sets Three Hour Limit for Kids Playing Online Video Games

Beginning September 1, video game companies like NetEase and Tencent are required to limit online gaming to just three hours per week for minors, according to new rules imposed by Chinese regulators.

As reported first by Bloomberg, children under the age of 18 will only be allowed to game for one hour between 8pm and 9pm on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, as well as public holidays. Additionally, game companies are required to restrict online gaming during these hours and must enforce a real-name verification system in place, according to Reuters.

But then how do you desensitize your future army to commit atrocious war crimes?  Maybe this will cause young moonbats to rethink their opinion of communism.

Kids will just go back to having game parties and playing each other head to head.

It's been an annoying trend over the last several years that you have to be online to play more and more games, even if you are strictly playing alone.

As this astute observer notes, this may force game designers to abandon this horrific practice...

The last game system I played on much was the PS2.  I've watched my wife play some games on the PS3, and it takes 1/2 hour to 45 minutes before you can play the damn games.
