This research aims to investigate the difference between game graphics which considers key elements and game systems which do them in the rating classification of adult arcade games during reviews. The case of the supreme court about 'The Golden Porker Castle' last year for 3 years presents the basis whether considers the game graphics or the game system during the review for the game. It implies to identify the gambling game device for the adult arcade game.

Since October 2006, number of deliberations of arcade game in Game Rating Board (GRB) annually was more than 1,000 cases except 2007 and 2010. However, these cases excessively handle to deliberate the game rating. Especially, the rating is manually performed thus, hindering the consistency and objectivity of the deliberation. To resolve this problems, we think that the automation of technical deliberation is necessary for arcade game which is needed to have much time for deliberation. The purpose of this study is to identify what the possibility part of automation or what obviously part of automation in the deliberation of game rating. To achieve our research purposes, we conducted in-depth interview with GLI standardization expert in BMM Korea and person in charge for deliberation in game rating board. The interview results show that 12 standardization and 14 automation factors for deliberation in game rating of arcade game. This study will expect bases in game development and promotion in game industry.

Game industry is certain to change rapidly as its attribute. Therefore, It's not easy that the law response to reflect the technological change of game industry properly, and a new legal issue that is difficult to cover with the existing law. Recently, Court battle or cases about games are socially receiving attention. Nevertheless, Research accumulation about the legal action to response this is rare situation. The legal system that is related games mostly approach in the regulation and punishment of one-sided administration so far. Relatively, Approach from the game industry development and promotion act standpoint is low. Shrinking rapidly the current game industry is not an irrelevance to this. So It is necessary to reconstruct rationally in side that embrace with variety of views of members of the society and interests about current game-related laws, systems and regulation instruments. Access to how will develop competitiveness of the game industry in legal aspects and how will promote the balanced development between game industries are needed. The problems that needs to handle in legal aspect such as game development, game distribution, and game usage which in the part of the game industry are getting more and more in the future. Therefore, there is a need to review consistently in the legal aspect for the game industry promotion.

Game Rating Board(GRB) of Korea set up in 29 October, 2006 has been 7th years and it will disappear in 23 November, 2013. For the first time the 'GRB' of Korea has the goal which held the nonofficial transfer of rating classification for game. But it had the justification which become more distant from the nonofficial transfer due to the affairs of 'See Story' in August, 2006. As a result, because of rapid normalization of game rating rather than the systematic transfer from 'Video Rating Board' of Korea cause no preparation of scientific professional rating review. It showed the entry-level appearance though stressing profession from the beginning of setup. Specially more transaction expense were increased because of no consistency and predictability for game review. However, it could be overcome by preparation for definite global standard and scientific rating system.

Recently, various kinds of arcade games are offered through the network with the internet's development. And for the Grid Logic game, it is opened up for everyone who uses the internet but it has a disadvantage that only the provided puzzles can be played. To improve this, in this paper, we developed a Grid Logic game contents using an image of user's as a puzzle. In order to do this, we suggested a threshold decision method, the pre-processing stage of image processing. We showed a method of detecting aim image from a binary image, showed up by the suggested way, and a method of changing into the game data and carrier of the meaning as a specific image at the end of the game are the objects of this paper. The suggested algorithm is constructed as a Java applet and applied to the 10 objects such as characters, logos, persons, etc. to show that this algorithm is suitable for the appropriate acquisition of the Grid Logic game data through the experiment.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the problems of the VR simulator industry represented by the 4th industrial revolution and to examine measures for industrial promotion. For this purpose, we consider the VR simulator regulation and examine the problems. Since the VR simulator has the features of existing arcade games and amusement facilities, it should be classified as game or inspected with amusement facilities depending on the viewpoint. This can be a dual regulation, and before the VR simulator industry starts, there is a risk that the industry itself can be damaged by existing legal limitations. For this purpose, it is necessary to provide a unique legal system for VR simulator and it is necessary to examine the contents to be included in such laws and systems. It is expected that the legal system of VR simulator will lead to promotion of new industry.
