Woman Sues Over GTA:SA:
An 85 year old woman is suing Rockstar and TakeTwo for false advertising. She bought the PS2 version in late 2004 for her grandson and says she never would have if she’d have known about the AO rating. Just lovely, the lady buys a M rated (17+) game for her 14 year old grandson and now she is suing. Nice. Even grandma is trying to cash in now.

The lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan that the game's manufacturer, Rockstar Games, and its parent company, New York-based Take Two Interactive Software Inc., engaged in false, misleading and deceptive practices. She sought unspecified damages on behalf of herself and all consumers nationwide, saying the company should give up its profits from the game for what amounted to false advertising, consumer deception and unfair business practices.
WHAT THE FUCK IS WITH THAT?!? YOU BUY YOUR GRANDSON A GAME YOU KNOW HAS DRUGS, VIOLENCE, CURSING, AND A BUNCH OF OTHER SHIT. BUT YOU SEE ON THE NEWS THAT A TINY SEX MINIGAME THAT CAN ONLY BE UNLOCKED WITH A GAMESHARK OR A DOWNLOADABLE PATCH, AND YOU FUCKING SUE FOR FALSE ADVERTISING?!?!??!?!? WHAT THE FUCK IS WITH THAT SHIT???!?!?

It's a free country, but that is jjjjjjjust plain stupid. Why aren't the organizations that rate the games being harrassed, instead of the game makers? They can put whatever the fuck they want on a game!

not that I agree with any of this shit but rockstar have been pushing it in imo, I mean come on putting a mini game like that in there is asking for it, no matter whether its only unlockable with gameshark it shouldn't be in there. And you have to admit each game gets more and more on the border, I'm not surprised that now the politicians are getting involved. Having said all that its still bullshit that they're trying to attack the sims too and granny-sue-some wants to cash in aswell.
