Following intense pressure from politicians and media watch groups the big time seller and austrian game production "GTA San Andreas" was rated "Adult-only" in the United States with such nice quotes like from Sen. Hilary Rodham Clinton, who said


she was disturbed the sexual content appeared on store shelves in the first place

She asked the Federal Trade Commission to investigate and called on the Entertainment Software Rating Board to do more to police game content.

What a mess - the adult content could be unlocked with some internet-downloads - a crack...

In a country where alcohol is allowed from 21, weapons can be bought at 18 and cars may even be driven to death at 17 I really wonder why so many jerks can freak out about some naked tities in a video game... I guess this was strongly influenced by porn laws being tightened in the last months...

More in Game's Rating Change May Be Sign of a Crackdown
