I think the keyword here is 'potential'.
I have played Metal Gear Solid, Manhunt and Grand Theft Auto. As far as I know I'm a fine upstanding citizen so I don't see why all this media backlash even exists.
I think that most Age Ratings should be respected... however I think it depends wholey on the maturity of the individual. Watching Independance Day while underage is probably not going to cause any long term damage.
Besides, Saw I to V is violent, why doesn't that get the same media backlash as Manhunt 2?
