This is the funniest response on this topic!!!!!‘Hillary Clinton demands GTA smut enquiry’
The Register: Hillary Clinton demands GTA smut enquiry
“Senator Hillary Clinton has jumped nimbly on the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas rumpy-pumpy outrage bandwagon by demanding an investigation into the game’s torrid sex scenes as unlocked by Dutch modder Patrick Wildenborg.
To recap, Wildenborg’s “Hot Coffee” mod apparently disables the game’s “censor flag”, thereby allowing access to hidden XXX material. As Wildenborg exlained: “If the censor flag is set, all the sexually explicit scenes are blocked from the normal flow of events. That makes a difference in a game scene when the hero visits his girlfriend’s house for a cup of coffee. In the censored version, the game shows the exterior of the house while suggestive sound effects are heard. If, however, the censor flag is cleared, all the explicit scenes are tied into the normal gameplay.”"
Considering that Hilary Clinton is my senator whom I hope to advise in the future, I shall have to self-censor my negative commentary…

Anyone else baffled by the fact that wanton passenger slaughter and mob killings apparently doesn’t raise even the slightest objection?
What kind of a f****d up value system are we contemplating here.
Multiple. But the only people who should be sued are the parents of the kids who let them become so vapid as to be influenced by entertainment media tp begin with, not the providers of said entertainment.vandree said:Isn't there a lawsuit already against the makers of the videogame? Something to do with the violence?

Zebulon said:We have documented proof of citizens from other, friendly countries (Canada) being detained in the US on "suspicion" of being a terrorist, transported that allows torture (Syria), held and tortured for a year, and then released with a "Whoops! Sorry about that!" when this poor sap turned out to be nothing more than a Canadian national that happened to be Muslim. Google "Maher Arar" if you don't believe me.
Now, with THAT blatant violation of international law and our own Constitution going on, Senator Hilarity Clinton can't come up with anything better to blame the degradation of American morals on than GTA?!?!
How about I make a video game where you, as a government agent, kidnap foreigners and torture them? It'd be like "Hitman", only you don't kill them, just make them WISH they were dead. Then, in the second part of the game, it'd switch to this legal strategy type game when you have to come up with plausible deniability, and enact new laws like "state secrets privilege" to get away with it all. It'd be great fun!
I wonder if it'd get an "AO" rating...

gordontravels said:I am certainly no fan of Hillary Clinton but do you think she thinks all of these problems are from one video game? Doesn't that put you in the same profile as her? She can't come up with anything but this and you can't come up with anything but that? I prefer to hear something to offset the contempt like maybe a reasonable solution. Do you think being exposed to violence begets violence? If you don't, why? If you do, why? If you think either way do you have a solution?
Here's something I think. Gangsta Rap. I hear lyrics that promote drugs, crime, rape. Should the youth of our country be the reciepients of this which glorifies that? Is there correlation? :duel
galenrox said:I find this whole concept somewhat ridiculous. Let's look at the facts:
Actions you could already do in GTA:
Take a hooker into your car, watch the car rock and you're cash go down, then once she gets out of the car, you could take a chainsaw to her and take your money back.
Blow up FBI helicopters
Crash planes into buildings
Kill gang members in front of cops to no reaction
Do drugs
Kill anyone
etc.
But once a sex scene enters the frey, that's crossing a line! I mean all acts of hate and rage are alright, but an act that is at the very least friendly, now THATS obscene!
Apples and Oranges, I know alot about the history of rock and can point out that Elvis was never shot because of a lyric or message in one of his songs, the rap casualty list; Biggie Smalls, Tupac, 50 cent(even though he survived), some of the people that pissed off a few rappers( I think there are about 5 or 6 pending murder trials currently), etc.Zebulon said:Oh, and about Gangsta Rap, please review the history of Rock and Roll, starting with Elvis Presley, and how his lyrics and dancing were going to be responsible for the downfall of Western Civilization. Thank you.

whoever unlocked it had to reverse engineer the file and the code.
vandree said:Not from videogames, come on. I played video games (and still do) and I happen to like the ones where you have to kill/destroy everything in sight. Yet I couldn't hurt a fly. Why? Because I can tell the difference between fantasy and reality.
