Those are all M in the ESRB rating though (not AO). Despite the parallel in AO and PEGI18, they aren't really the perceived the same in the respective markets.

- TranquilMarmot 8y agoBest case study for this difference is the "Hot Coffee" mod for GTA: San Andreas. There was originally a very adult minigame in it but it was disabled; the "mod" simply enabled it. This caused so much controversy the game was re-rated AO by the ESRB and consequently pulled from store shelves until they re-released a patched version with the minigame removed completely. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Coffee_mod https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Coffee_mod
