Sex makes 17-year olds go blind
by Hoser McMoose May 11, 2006 10:23 AM PDT
Come now, the GTA series is indeed rated 'M' for Mature Audience, meaning only those 17 or older can buy it. BUT, with the "Hot Coffee" hack the game would have to be rated Adults Only, meaning only those 18 or older could buy it.

So really the big worry here is for all those 17-year olds, and as I'm sure we all know, 17 year olds will go blind if they see some poorly pixelated, obviously faked, humorous representation of sex. I mean, those 12 months between turning 17 and turning 18 are going to make some huge world of difference when it comes to a persons ability to handle cartoon sex!

Ohh, if anyone's worried though, the original M 17+ rating did state "Strong Sexual Content" (along with "Blood and Gore, Intense Violence and Drug Use") even without that "Hot Coffee" mod.
If It Wasn't...

If it wasn't San Andres, it was going to be some other game that would have started it all.
*sigh*
Much ado over nothing

Since when does a cheesy sex scene buried in a game (that has to be unlocked with a hack) have anything to do with the attire of booth babes? "Cover the kid's eyes - there's a naked navel on parade!" What a load of crap....

"...She said another of the models received a warning from show organizers for showing too much skin. "Apparently her cleavage was a little too distracting," she said...."

Isnt that the POINT of a booth babe?

And this is happening in LA. Thats the last place you'd expect.
