His PEGI 18 work is great, but his PEGI 12 work is overlooked. I think it's where he really hit his stride in that role.

His PEGI-18 work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when PEGI-12 came out in '03, I think he really came into his own, commercially and artistically. The whole message has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the message a big boost. He's been compared to ESRB, but I think PEGI has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humour.

In all seriousness, I actually do like the PEGI12 one more. It's more poiniant in a weird way. I'm not even kidding.

Omg but have you heard the Australian R18 announcer?!?! SO POWERFUL and yet derivative of the groundbreaking ESRB M rating
