"A woman upset that she bought the video game “Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas” for her 14-year-old grandson without knowing it contained hidden, sexually explicit scenes sued the manufacturer Wednesday on behalf of consumers nationwide."

So, she buys her son a game where you carjack, murder, etc. etc. etc., but she wants to sue because there is SEX????

I will never, ever understand the mentality that sees violence as perfectly acceptable but flips out over sex.

Puritans. 'nuff said.

I wanted to post this picture earlier, but I didn't think it warranted it's own thread. I feel it fits well here. It's from today's Opinion page of my newspaper. Steve Sack (despite his name) rules.

:icon19:

Oh look at Johnny playing away there mowing down hookers with a chainsaw...how quaint. Wait a minute...why is his character having sex with that woman???? Oh my fucking God Johnny, turn it off! Turn it off! Oh you poor child, go read the first half of the Bible and we will try and erase that horrible image of pixelated intercourse from your pure, virgin little mind.

She sought unspecified damages on behalf of herself and all consumers nationwide, saying the company should give up its profits from the game for what amounted to false advertising, consumer deception and unfair business practices.

oh.my.god

The fact she WON is crazy, the las for 14, and the games for 18+... Fucking hell why do some people FORGET THIS?

yea, apparently she was not quite capable of reading the label that said MATURE AUDIENCES.

Like maddox mentioned indirectly - what the hell happens to a kid between the years of 17 and 18 that makes it suddenly OK for them to see porn and sex?

Downloaded sex scene

Hold on, I haven't cared to devote one minute of my time to this shit. The this whole battle isn't over some mod someone made is it? (That can't be right...)

Right here, man

No, the content was actually in the game - Rockstart finally admitted this. The initial download allowed the mini game to be accessed. I think it is available on the Xbox and PS2 versions as well, throwing the 'mod' idea out the window (that was rockstars initial defense I believe).

ah, thank neo

Who cares, its still adult rated FFS, so it shouldn't matter, the kid was underage.

Its against the LAW for a kid to be playing a game like that. In other words, the kid and his parents should be the ones getting busted ffs...

ah, the next generation. I CAN'T WAIT TILL THESE KIDS RUN THE COUNTRY!

I don't believe for one second she was concerned about the sexual content of the game. In my view she leapt on the bandwagon of recent bad press targeting the game company, made a few calls and was advised there could be money in it for her.

She is merely playing the system

...and I hope a plague of 1000 locusts infest her asshole very soon

It's irrelevant as to what she was doing (though I do see your point)...it's still unbelievable to me that some people can live acting like that.

I'll take care of people like this when I become mayor, don't worry.

well its only available through hacking on the consoles so.

also, they are now rereleasing the game without the sexual hidden unaccessable code, yet it still has to have an AO rating. whats up with that?
when the ESRB didnt know about the minigame it was M rated, now they know about it and rate it AO, even though the code has been removed

fucking yanks

They don't want their future soldiers to think about sex when there's killing to be done.

Thats crazy, but doesn't surprise me... Sometimes I think those laws are just 100% backwards...
