A quote:

First and foremost, ratings based on partial game footage would become a thing of the past. Currently, the ESRB hands out ratings after viewing a reel with representative content prepared by the developers. Sen. Brownback thinks that's not enough: "Video game reviewers should be required to review the entire content of a game to ensure the accuracy of the rating," he said. "The current video game ratings system is not as accurate as it could be because reviewers do not see the full content of games and do not even play the games they rate."

Good call, Mr. Out of Touch With Reality. Does that mean all 80 hours of Final Fantasy XII should be "watched" before the game can be reviewed? Maybe just a slide show of every model, texture, and environment and a dump of all sound used in the game?
