I enjoy blasting aliens and zombies and fighting opposing armies and am not turned off by the violence of them. GTA4 though, like its predecessors, is just wrong. It is a slippery sloped piece of trash that shouldn?t see the light of day. I put those would create this filth in the same category as pedophiles who enjoy watching children being molested. I have seen the gameplay and it is breathtaking but the storyline, the S&M aspects, its overt misogynistic tone and pornographic violence turns my stomach. Why, because kids from 10-16 will be allowed to play it by unknowing or uncaring parents. I know stating all this will do no good nor will it have more then 0% effect on anyone but I had to share it. Why allow kids to screw a hooker in their car after getting trashed and then shooting them to get energy points? Help me understand why. And don?t give me the its just a game argument. Then let?s pull out our porn and let the kids watch that too. Perhaps we should ask the Rockstar owners if they would like to walk the streets that they created.
