Patricia Vance, the president of the ESRB, announced a new application that comes pre-loaded on the PSP Go (seen above). The application informs gamers, usually parents or guardians, about the the content rating guidelines and teaches them how to use the PSP’s parental controls.

Just a word of advice: if players have no need for this gaming education, they can opt to delete the application from their go to free up some space for more Mini’s.
