Hot Coffee and GTA

Excerpts from a BBC article:

"Rockstar, maker of a video game which caused controversy after secret sex scenes were found in it, has issued a fix to disable access to the scenes.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the best-selling game of 2004, were unlocked by a fan who created software called Hot Coffee. Installing Hot Coffee allowed people to play an explicit "mini game".

As a result, the US Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) changed the rating to Adults Only. The change meant, however, that many shops were forced to stop stocking it as they have a policy of not selling adult-rated content.

Before the ESRB's investigation, the game had an M for mature rating that meant it could be sold to those aged 17 and above.

The storm of protest over the game even attracted the attention of US senator Hillary Clinton. She called for an investigation into who was responsible for including the scenes in the game.

In the UK, the game was originally granted an 18 age rating and that rating remains the same."


My comment?
Holy cow - how dare they make those sex scenes! I mean, I'd be upset if my 17yr old unlocked these sex scenes. But its OK for my 18yr old. Thanks alot Hilary, you GO girl! Use our taxpaying money to make sure those 17yr olds NEVER again get ahold of such explicit material! Uhm hey wait - why's there only a one year age difference between Mature ratings and Adults Only? Isn't R 17+, and NC17 is 17+?
