ESRB does rate games.
Posted By: Narcogen <narcogen@rampancy.net>Date: 9/7/06 6:14 a.m.

In Response To: Re: Game Design - What were we MEANT to do? (Vironex)

: Not incredibly important, but the ESRB doesn't rate games. The developers do.

I think you're mistaken. Developers have to submit content from games to apply for ESRB ratings, and the ESRB applies them.

This is the source of the controversy over the content in GTA:SA unlocked by the "hot coffee" mod, as the ESRB initially applied a lower rating to that game.
