sorry for bringing this topic up.
Your information concerning the 'new' ELSPA ratings logo (2002) cannot be true, as several 2001 PlayStation 1 games I own (not copyright, release date!) do feature the newer ELSPA logo, not the tick one.
It would be interesting, when the change was really done. When I find the time, I will search through all my PS1 releases to pinpoint a year/month.
PS: Quick analysis indicates, that the change between the ELSPA logos must have been done somewhere in the summer months of 1999.
