California appeals video game law to Supreme Court

California's failed video game censorship law is headed to the Supreme Court. The bill, which was passed by the state assembly in 2005 with the support of Governor Schwarzenegger, aimed to criminalize the sale of violent video games to minors. It was promptly challenged in court by the Entertainment Software Association (ESA), a video game industry trade group. After the US District Court threw it out Governor Schwarzenegger sought an appeal, which was rejected by the 9th Circuit. Schwarzenegger announced on Wednesday that he won't back down and intends to take it to the Supreme Court.
