equality and diversity law

the equality and diversity law makes everyone equal meaning that no body would not be treated differently no matter their race, gander, religion or sexuality.for example a black person would not get treated differently to a white person etc..

how are female characters represented in Games?

in the recent games female video game have been represented respectfully. But there's still a stigma where women are still objectified for example in street fighter women are shown in a sexual way.

  1. The Pan European Game Information (PEGI) is an age rating system from 3-18 and this was created to simplify what is allowed for what age so European parent can make an informed decision on what to purchase for their child.

    Libel is a published false statement that is damaging to a person's reputation; a written defamation

    Pegi version but for films this is called The British Board of Film Censors was set up in 1912 by the film industry as an independent body to bring a degree of uniformity to the classification of film nationally

    ASA code of conduct is showing your consumer that your are selling/advertising what you say it is so if you say this protein bar will make you pop out a muscle with each bite which is inaccurate.
