ESRB
This article is burly men unfolding umbrellas. Maybe you should help it on its way. |
The ESRB (short for Entertainment Software Rating Board in English, and Endangered Sock-Eating Restrictive Byotchfaces in Illogish) is a company that spends their days putting letters on box art so you don't accidentally buy a sex game for your little kiddies.

The game is so amazing that everyone should play it. An age rating would suggest otherwise, and therefore, a Perfect rating is used instead.
No-one (NO)[edit | edit source]
The game is so excruciatingly horrible that no one should ever play it.

The game is so terrifying that the ESRB didn't bother with a rating: they wanted the game away from them as soon as possible.
