Really, what he says is not that bad, it's just the obvious self-serving nature of the way he says it.

Yeah, that's why I like Nintendo. Fun games without all the violence.


Agreed. For example, one of my favorite games is Mario Party 4--it doesn't really have any objectionable content (there's some cartoony violence, but nothing serious), and it's really fun.

Personally, while I do think that the content shouldn't've been hidden in the game, I don't think that this one scene of explicit (And it's not that explicit--I saw a framegrab. I don't remember seeing anything, if you catch my drift. Actually, I think one of the characters was silhouetted.) material merits an AO rating. From what I've heard, the series is already violent, sick, and twisted (i.e., picking up a prostitute and killing her to get your money back). Frankly, I don't see why they didn't just rate GTA:SA AO from the start.

In the end, though, the blame rests mainly on the parents who got the game for their kids. I can see it now: "Hmm, violence, language...OK, Jimmy, you can have--OH MY GOD! There's a hidden bit of sexual content that can only be unlocked by downloading a mod! I'M SUING!" I know my parents wouldn't be happy with me playing the game even if there was no hidden content. (Not that I mind--I'm content with Mario Party, DDR, and Animal Crossing,

I have one final question. Would people be reacting the same way if there was similar hidden content in, say, a Mario game?

Good one King.

But, I actually dont like Nintendo that much. Im not a Mario fan, because they can make any game and throw him in there, Its repetitive. And dang, how many friggen Mario Party Games are they going to make??Im perfectly happy with my Sony stuff, like Sly Cooper, which has cartton violence, but otherwise, its good.Another reason I dont like Mario is because one every message board(except this one anmd a couple others) has these distgruntled mario fans saying " HEY!!! MATRIO IS WAY (censored)(censored) BETTER THAN J00 _ CASH BANDCOT!AD SL COPPER!AND SPRO!!CRASH GAMES COPY MARIO!J00 SHOULD ALL BE S00D FOR PAYING THESE GAMES!!!!....

Yeah, that stuff happens a lot at the GameFAQS Boards.Other than that, I have no problem.But honestly, that stuff really does happen.But hey, its what I think, so leave me entitled to my opinion.(honestly, this did happen)

What I don't get is that you actually AGREE with THompson that the game should be rated AO. I see nothing that warrents such a rating. The ONLY games I play that should REALLY get such a rating aren't actually SOLD here and are too obscure to mention.

Did anyone get that patch for GTA:SA?

I mean the patch to remove it -_-

Like I want to install the mod, start a new game, play the first billion missions that get you your first girlfriend, and THEN date her enough to possibly encounter low-res humping motions.

Within that time span I could already have downloaded much worse things then that.


Wait.. shouldn't they re-re-rated it to M if that patch removes Hot Coffee?
