It has come down to this for California's video-PC game law. Passed back in 2005 by governor Arnold Schwarzenegger the law, which would regulate the sales of games with violent content to minors, has already been declared unconstitutional by two courts. Now GamePolitics is reporting that the US Supreme Court is scheduled to hear the final appeal of the proposed law by the state of California today.

It's the first time that such a proposed law has come up before the highest court in the land (although it did deal with a similar case that involved video game arcade machines back in 2001). Similar laws have been shot down in court many times before but California, which has already likely spent tons of taxpaper money trying to defend their law against the game industry's own lawyers, seems determined to have this case heard. GamePolitics reports that the Supreme Court's final decision should be revealed on October 5.
