게임물의 창작활성화를 위한 게임법상 내용규제 검토 - 게임법상 내용수정신고제도 및 이에 대한 게임법 개정안의 검토를 중심으로 -

Game Contents has a computer program works and audio-visual works because of game embodied by computer program and audio-visual products. So, game contents is protected by copyright act. Because online game serviced on internet was occasionally modificated, gamer uses the higher level game contents. But, these patches has different view point from the game service provider and regulation agency. Because of regulation agency pointed out changing the identification of game without the filing patched contents. But game service provider assert this regulation distort the intention of perfect game contents offering. In this way, contents patch system has different view points from the stake holders. Game industry promotion act has game rating system, for the game industry promotion and healthy game culture. But I have doubts about the application of the game patch system legally, because game patch system to the game service provider is a lower prospect system on the game regulation. This system force game service provider doing self-censorship on the game contents patch, because of the interruption of the game service. In this paper, I consider the problem and the improvement of the game contents patch system as a contents regulation.
