Her husband has an affair- she doesnt drop him
GTA SA has hidden sex- she drops it all over the country

Weird woman she is.

[atm743]

the society in the world is soooo curuped

there are games like the guy game and Leisure Suit Larry wich both show nudity and crap like that but they are not getting sued???


really whats sooo wong about seeing a video game that has a sex scenes

there are pg-13 movies that show breast's and graphic violents and sex scenes ???

damn it.

whats with this world. if you dont want your kid to have it say that on the game.

dont take it out of stores. its like food. you can get a box of cookies that say that they are fat free but really have lots of carb's or sodium or things that can make you gain weight and people dont know about it.

man errrr

well i have to buy mine for my xbox before they cost like 100 bucks jest to get it

The coffee mod is wierd... CJ is wearing his clothes. You can like flip around and do all kinds of stuff in it.. yeah. I dont think it was worth having.

Hate to break it, but the ESRB ratings are completly voulentairy. Similar to Movie ratings, it's a self enforcment ratings system. The Video game industry has it in place so the government does not have to be involved. You can easily argue that it's a highly worthelss system, but rest assured that without it, there would be a lot more upset politicians. Having folks who are not a part of the industry try to regulate the content is a very bad idea.

Feel free to call Hillary all kinds of funny names, I'm all for that. However, you can hardly blame her for Rock Star's sillyness.

You guys are hilarious.

And it's obvious you need to lay off the video games.

If you want the game, you're still going to be able to get the game. I'm not one to tout censorship, but jeez, do you REALLY want an 8 y/o playing that game? How about this-- complain about real censorship. Complain about free speech violations, heck, complain about the swearing filter on this site, or the censors that schools put on computers (which ensure that you cannot access stuff like... oh, say, gay rights pages and info on breast cancer). Complain about radios filtering songs, or TV censoring movies. Porn is what it says it is. You buy porn to GET PORN. You buy video games to get video games-- NOT PORN.

Do NOT complain about a stupid video game (which you'll still be able to access) getting a higher rating.

Honestly, I don't think the company that makes this game is going to be complaining anyway. This controversy is going to make sales go through the roof.

well like im tring to say if you dont want a young one play it then dont let the kid play it. jest have a info sheet or sign somewere on the gamecase or store about it. really kids are going to do things and with a game that shows nudity is not bad.

also you go to the movies to see action and stars but you will also get sex and drugs. soo really what you said shows nothing.

So, your beloved GTA SA is taken off the shelves. Big damn deal. Is it really such a big deal that you want her dead? Get a life.

It's a freakin game... it's not censorship... it's stupid parents complaining because they don't know how to parent. Parents buy these games for their kids, then complain about it when they see something they don't like. Know what your buying before you buy it. Also with a name of "Grand Theft Auto" I would think that would draw a flag immediately with parents.

Also if you want your voices heard... write to your Senator (as professionally as possible). People complain about what the gov't does... if you don't like it... tell them. They are there for you. Example... radio censorship (Howard Stern). Do I agree with everything that he does... no, but that doesn't give the gov't the right to fine him oddles of money because someone, who happens to be listening, lets a young one hear it. Rediculous. The people who complain aren't many, something like 10%, but people don't stand up for it, so stupid things get passed. Stand up and voice your opinion... and not on a forum either. Send a letter to your congressman, governor, etc. Enough people do it, the gov't might listen.

its not that bad
go to collegehumer.com for the video of it.

[Pacifist_Farmer]

You know whats an even bigger crock...

Game was originally rated "M" if I'm not mistaken, which means 17+ to purchase, so the grandmother buys it for her 14 year old grandson, and then sues because there is the potential for nudity in it.

http://www.cnn.com/2005/TECH/fun.games/07/27/game.lawsuit.ap/index.html

If she was that concerned with the subject matter why'd she even buy it in the first place.

"Ok little Johnie you can beat to death random people in the game with a bat, but you can't have sex."

[thecavemankevin]

there are games like the guy game and Leisure Suit Larry wich both show nudity and crap like that but they are not getting sued???

actually the guy game is perm banned for sale in the US because there was a 17 year old in there and they didn't know it. She sued and won a bunch of money and they took it off the shelves for child porn.

However back to GTA. I must admit i love this game and own it on the PS2. However it is rockstars fault because they put it in there. See i am thinking that it was likely just a joke amongst a bunch of programers and they just never took it out (not expecting someone to find it).

Like Hexis said, it is not Hillary's or any other poloticians fault. However feel free to continue the name calling at her expense. The game ratings system did what they felt was right and rockstar is honoring it.

Now because of all the controversy Walmart, Best Buy, and Target all pulled it from their shelves so yes their sales will fall. But if you want the game, you cant tell me you dont know how to get it. Ebay!

There is thing it is called parenting. jk


heck the game was rated mature so now it gets an adult rating come on.
Heck I'm an adult but there is no one who would dare say that I'm mature.

So for me technically a mature rating is a higher standard to hold on to than an adult rating.

just my stupid opinion.

[skife]

actually i belive to get the nudity in the game it has to be hacked wich violates the 3rd part agreement.
