'Beer Pong' Video Game Rated OK for Kids

This is why in sensible countries the drinking age is 16.

this would be Beirut, not beer pong. im amazed people still cant get it right >.>

More shovelware
I bet too

This is why there are parents in the world to make sure CONTENT is suitable for their children and not to blindly go well the ESRB gave it a teen rating so it must be ok. Its called being aware of what youre children are buying now they have ruined what would have been a great game for the wii and turned into childrens fodder which they cant even market because it is a waste of time Thanks middle-class idiots. Maybe in those fancies colleges everyone raves about they should teach some F'N common sense and the sad reality that we are becoming stupider everyday might not come true

Who cares, we have bigger fish to fry. The economy is sinking into the pits of hell. If you don't want the game don't buy the dayum thing.

ugh this is so stupid. its a video game designed to have fun, parents need to teach their child whats right and wrong, not a video game. And if the child has something wrong with them, just dont give them any games. parents should make the choice wether its suitablef for their kids. im a 17 year old avid video game player (grand theft auto, need for speed, etc etc.) and i dont go shoot up places and drive fast and reckless. and my mom is 53 and she plays video game (zelda and mario party and things of that nature) so parents need to step in and up, but not against video games, but with them and their children.

we played this game for fun actually,,on a real table in az. and if Jeff W. is ready to play another round bring the table,,,however we were of legal drinking age as EVERY-ONE should be !!! I'm not sure if this game either promotes or encourages drinking and should NOT be played by a teen-agern

Not exactly a late development...since I played this game month's ago on my nephew's Wii and it was called Pong Toss then, so the name must have been changed some time ago. By the way, he has absolutely no idea that the game has anything to do with beer. If I remember correctly the disc that the game is on is just called "Party games" and includes darts and other games like that as well, so this just looks like another instance of the media blowing something way out of proportion to create a story.

Here is an idea for a game they get to go to work, drive a car, and spend twice as much as the make in one day to put gas in the car to actually get to work. No never mind that is way to realistic and it might make kids do something stupid.

well thats ridiculous who cares if it was called beer pong??

im only ten and i already know every swear word in the book and every sex phrase and everything there is to know about sex. i even use swear words sometimes. if a ten year old is doing this stuff then what makes beer pong bad for 13 year olds? heck i even watch my dad play gto sometimes. (grand theft outto)

They arent pourig ice cold beer into solo cups and handing them out to 7 year olds.
when i was little we had duck hunt for nintendo. it came complete with the orange and grey gun with real trigger action for shooting ducks.
Was it ok for me to simulate playing with a gun? its not ok for litle suzy to pretend to toss a ping pong ball into a cup and pretend tod rink out of one? even if the beverage inside said fictional cup represents beer, they arent drinking any beer.
sheesh.

What this boils down to is if you allow your child to buy this game is your business. If you feel this is not for your child then don' buy it for them, but i can tell you that all you people out there that are againt this game i can bet your child has Grand Theft Auto and that game is the worst, thats my oppinion, that game is meant for adults and i know alot of kids that parents bought it for them, so fess up and you as the parent decide whats right and whats wrong.

OK people need to leave video games alone and grow up!!! Whoever said that this game was made for kids, and a T rating is perfect for this game. It's just beer pong!! A lot of kids see their parents drink beer and other alcoholic drinks everyday!!! And the developers said that there are no scenes showing the consumtion of beer. Look, whoever wrote this article and whoever is getting mad at ratings board for during their job, GROW THE F**K UP!!!!! Its just a game!! There are worse things out there that you need to be worrying about than a beer pong game. You, the parents, are the influence on your children. Not a videogame!!! And there are worse things in movies, on the radio, on the internet, and even on TV that you need to make sure your child is not experiencing. So quit worrying about why a beer pong game didn't get higher than a T rating, so you can grow up and get a life!!!

This is exactly why i wont be bringing a kid into this screwed up world we call, ours. we have taken everything in life to the very edge of the cliff, we stretch fun and excitement to the very limits. it wont surpirse me when 8 year olds are having sex on a regular basis. we evolved from apes and took this trip forward in time so that we could once again act like animals. sadly we have made no progress other than doing a full 360,back to caveman days.

lol wow sounds fun but they're right not for kids!!!!=D

Who cares? Like kids don't know what beer is. And like playing this game is really going to make them go out and play real beer pong while they are like, ten?

Perfectly acceptable, Beer is a fact of life, its drank internationally with dinner as a normal beverage, get off your religious freak out, and let it be.

Alcohol abuse is rampant in this country due to the illegality of drinking under 21, if it was a socially accepted norm from birth, it would not create the problem we have today.

Less then 100 years ago, Alcoholic Apple Cider was safer then most of the drinking water in this country.
