So I turned 17 last week and i am SOOO done dragging my parents into the store with me to get "mature" titles. So i heard bestbuy, wall mart, and all the department stores require 18 years of age but im wondering of the game specific stores are the same?

I never had a problem getting mature titles. Just go in and try to get the game, if they don't give it to you then go somewhere else.

i never took my parents when i was buying M rated games at 17 but that was back then, but looks like they changed..theyre required now im guessin. but if your 18 and have a id then your fine. try gamestop or just order them online.

Depends on the store. An age restriction is entirely a store-policy thing, so it can vary or not even exist at all.
