    GTA: Rockstar in more trouble - funneh

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/4671429.stm

    Sex controversy over GTA game

    Best-selling game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is being investigated in the US over reports that it contains sexually explicit mini-games hidden in its code.

    The controversy surrounds a download available on the net which is said to unlock secret sex scenes.

    Game makers Rockstar said they were complying with the inquiry, by the industry body that sets age ratings.

    If the findings were to lead to an adult-only age rating, it could limit sales from major retail outlets.

    Explicit acts

    The Grand Theft Auto series of crime games have proved phenomenally popular. They are credited with kick-starting the driving-and-shooting genre of gaming.

    The PlayStation 2 version of San Andreas sold more a million copies in the first nine days that it was on sale in UK last year.

    But the game has also attracted criticism from those who say it encourages gratuitous violence as players immerse themselves in an underground world of LA gangs and gun-ridden ghettos.

    Now it is under fire over whether the game contains hidden graphic sexual content.

    Software code developed by GTA Dutch fan Patrick Wildenborg is said to have unlocked mini-games in the PC version of San Andreas that allows players to make game characters perform sexually explicit acts.
    Funny.

    Because of course, in the US, you can graphically blow people up, but you can't graphically blow them off..

    I wonder what else has been left in..

    I have played the hidden sex game.

    Its as about erotic as you could think.

    If you want to play hardcore sex, go buy the new Jenna Jameson game, its crap, but better.

    Should sell em a few more copies, which is all good because it's a great game. Will wait till I finished the main missions before trying out naked sex fun games, because it's can mess up your save game or other important stuff if you don't get the install right or use the wrong version.

    In trouble? Rockstar owe much of thier sucess of thier games to publisity like this. It's becoming thier bread and butter these days. Rockstar are hardly in trouble, more like they rubbing thier hands togther in glee as they skip to the bank to see how many more unit sales this story has generated. Just look what the Daily Mail campain to get this game taken of the shelves did for sales of Vice City. Not forgeting the uproar over Manhunt and the other games that have been in the press. The only difference with GTA is that it's actually a very good game.

    In my opinion, Rockstar had this planned right from the start.

    I read some statment they made, saying that becuase the mod to make it apear changes the actual code, despite the fact that it is there. Its techincaly still a mod, so there not liable for it.

    The film 'The Idiots' is available now from play.com, rating 18. It is, as far as I know the only film to pass the BBFC censor board containing detailed harcore sex scenes (if you've seen the film, you'll know what it contains)

    The game 'Grand Theft Auto' for PC (also rated 18) contains extremely crude sex mini-games which must be unlocked by downloading a patch and contain no nudity.

    ...and which are they lobbying against again?

    LOL!, now Hillary Clinton is demanding an investigation. It seems while murder, thieft and repeatedly swearing is ok, a bit of rumpy pumpy is not. Man, American morals are so twisted.

    remember in the US - jaywalking is still a crime, and so is smoking in your own house in front of a stranger (CA) - what exactly a stranger is doing in your house is something only GTA:SA could answer
