Hot Coffee

I know this has been in the news but I am sure you all know about Rockstars issues with the Hot Coffee mod that is out there. Thing is that the news does not tell anyone is that it is a mod. A third party developer who made it for thier own reasons.

The Press and government are attacking Rockstar for anothers doings. After all Nude mods and the like have been around for a long time. Neverwinter had a mod with nudity. Leasure suit larry had the same and even the Sims had simmilar.

It makes me think that maybe Rockstar may have been in a way behind this in that I am sure the sales have gone up in the last week. But I do not feel that they did anything that would be seen as illegal.

Lets hear your views on this

    The mod didnt introduce anything new, all the code for the mod was already in the game and done by Rcokstar it was just disable, all the mod does is unlock that code.

    Even the author of the mod clearly states that the minigames/scenes are already in the game and they are just "unlocked" by his download. Not sure where the original poster got his info from. Maybe the press that he condemned? :)

    If Im not mistaken they were investigating if the code was or wasnt there. I dont think they have come to a conclusion, did they? It could be all in the mod and that guy could be lying... who knows?

    This is totally ridiculous.  It seems that Bubba's wife has nothing better to do then attack Video Games.  A total lack of disregard for the American People.  We can make up our own minds as to what we play/don't play.  Govt is intruding more and more into our private lives under the guise of "morality."

    Everytime the goverment starts getting involved in games and movies I shiver.  This latest thing with rockstar is purely political.  Hillary wants to look less liberal.  All she is trying to do is move more toward the middle to get votes for her upcomming presidential run. 

    It's not censorship we need it's more parents watching their kids.

    Dont ya know rockstar is loving it !!!


    Im quite sure games are flying off the shelf.

    Nothing better than publicity and even better if its negative.Rockstar didnt even have to do anything they just sit back and let Hillary open her mouth.

    1st the GOVT sets up a rating system that every game developer uses to their advantage then its not good enough.Where do parents figure into this?

    As much as i like GTA id never let my kids play it.It is even marketed as a adult game imho just look at the warning labels on the game packaging.

    Dont start a guild and dont be a leader or volunteer to be coleader or captain.

    Just play the damn game:)

    its not a mod in the sense it adds new content. It simply removed the block of coding that prevented players from accessing this portion of the game. It was put in by rockstar but then blocked for obvious reasons. They did how ever later add a mod where the females appeared nude during these scenes, in rockstars version they are in their underwear. The whole situation is pathetic when you actually get down to it. The lawsuits wont go anywhere and as said before this is just an awesome advertisment that RS could have ever wanted.

    It's just like the many other games out there...Let me tell you. There are many stupid parents out there letting their young kids play violent videogames just looking towards suing a video game company when they control their kids actions.

    It reminds me about when that woman (i believe the mother of that kid that play in Home Alone) that tried to drain money out of famous people including MJ.

    There are evil people out there . . . . image

    Trust me, video games will always win in the end and if they don't the gamers will back them up.
