I've just read [URL=http://www.videoludica.com/news.php?news=566]a recent article[/URL] by Matteo Bittanti on VideoLudica website. It's in Italian, but with a google translation you can understand the essential.

So, a coalition of Italian representatives made a proposition to European Parliament in order to ban [I]Rule of the Rose[/I], and they plan to go further. They want to ban other games, and they also want to create an "observatory" for the protection of children, in charge of verifying "preventively" the content of games and replacing PEGI ratings system by another one.

(note: Matteo Bittanti is the one who revealed the truth about the moral panic that surrounded [I]Rule of the Rose[/I])
