There are a few details that these sensationalist news stories are missing: a) The pron scenes aren't in the main game. b) To reach the sex minigame, you pretty much either have to hack the game or grind for several hours. The latter method only works if you have one of the first editions of the game. c) The minigame dosen't have full nudity. From what I hear, Matrix 2 was worse. Not that I've seen either, mind you. d) Yes, there are still ways to *build* porn scenes in the game. That's the thing. It's called modding. By editing game files, you can create new skins and make anyone in the game nude. This applies to pretty much any game. But do you see news networks complaining about the nude patches for Super Mario 64? e) The game's rating was upped from M (ages 17+) to... are you ready for this? AO (ages 18+). Truly, much has been accomplished. What I don't get is why a game where you drive over screaming people, kill hookers with baseball bats, and smuggle drugs is coming under fire for hidden sexual content. Seems that little minigame would be the least of a parent's worries. I’m going to assume that we are both referring to GTA San Andreas, the one with the Hot Coffee thing.

There's still a way to actually build porn-type scenes in the newest version. with the whole body of the sprites visible. and everything. It was very controversial, made it on the news and everything. Yeah, well. There’s still a way to actually build

Yes, lots of violence. However, the "porn" isn't even in the main game. Stuff is implied, but you don't actually see anything graphic. The whole "Hot Coffee" thing was an easter egg that you won't find unless you know about it. Hey, GTA is rated M, but be fair.

Grand Theft Auto has a LOT more graphicness to it. At least in SOSS, there is no porn and/or blood. I think so, too. Grand Theft Auto has a LOT more graphicness to it.

My dad asked me to stop playing it when he saw me driving around blowing up cops and nuclear power plants as I did my evil overlord laugh. For the longest time, he thought it was Grand Theft Auto. By comparison, SOSS was fairly mild, actually... Yeah, that was a fun game.

(Especially when they blow up. :) They remind me of the Streets of Sim City game that I have which allows you to build cars with like, rocket launchers on them, and then blow other cars up. (Extra pts for hitting cops!) You can also get a machine gun and use your weapons to blow up cows! It's so much fun! Yeah, I'm really hyper. ;0 oh, well. Dude, your “cows” are sooo cute!
