Want to know about a game? Should we buy that new upcoming release? Post your thoughts on new games and ones you have...so others can know whether to buy it or not! All non-SWBF, non-modding topics should go here.

The game has an 18 certificate over here and if you're that effected by that sort of content at that age then you have a problem. Prior to that you shouldn't have it, that's what ratings are for. Also at that age you'll have seen far worse on the news etc... The series of games are all right but they get boring real quick!
All I said was that he learned how to disarm the cop etc. from the game

Well, in that case, we can say that the "As long as you sell products..." sentence is becoming a real rule for many merchants...
I could make a mod for swbf that was pornographic. Does that mean to say SWBF should have a sexual content warning just incase the buyer decides to download it?
That's not what I meant... In fact, I just said that GTA games are a sort of "hive" in hibernation, and mods such as the "Hot Coffee", a kick in it... Once they're both installed, the content of this "hive" is awaken, although you thought it didn't shelter inhabitants...
Are you sure this decision concerned GTA : Vice City ? Indeed, San Andreas had to be removed from shops, in order to cut off stuffs re-activated by patches, like the "Hot Coffee"...
Yeah, it was San Andreas that was banned, but I believe the game was fixed and re-released. Didn't Rockstar get a lawsuit or something? I thought it had something to do more with the fact that because of the content it should have been rated "Adults Only."

Still , it isnt in the game when you buy it so why should it have a 'sexual content' rating !? . The fact of the matter is that the person who bought the game chooses to download 'hot coffee' and knows exactly what he's downloading.
The "Hot Coffee" mod has been done by one of RockStar employees... I guess many GTA owners have so decided to download it, since they had probably learnt that it was a sort of "official" update, without paying attention to its whole description...
Well, in fact, my choices are inherent to my "ideals"...
I won't be able to explain them in details to you, since you seem not to share the same opinion than I...
Also, I think it would be more careful to stop our discussion here, and wait for new thoughts, from other GameToast members...
