The Gaming world is a little shocked about the events surrounding Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, wherein it was discovered that the game's developer had put a sex-mod into the game (unlockable only using a hacked modification available on the internet)... The game's ESRB rating has been raised from the equivalent of PG-13 to Adults Only, and many stores are pulling the game from their shelves, to shield the vulnerable eyes of children from the horrible possibility they might see some booty in a video game. Someone on gamespy.com put it quite well yesterday:
"I like how beating an old woman up with a dildo, stealing her money, running from the police, creating a huge road crash, burning said road crash with a flame thrower, then stealing a harrier jet and killing the FBI force that is tracking you down is considered less 'morally bad' than a sex scene. With your girlfriend."
Sheesh.
The history of the Banana Split, by ingredient. This is why the Christian Science Monitor is such a cool paper.
