Intense Violence
Blood and Gore
Nudity
Mature Humor
Strong Language
Strong Sexual Content
Use of Drugs and Alcohol

Grand Theft Auto V will be released on September 17 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

I'm surprised. I was expecting an E rating. What do I tell little Timmy O Toole now? He so badly wanted to run over an old lady just once before he died. :'(

Zodiac3915d ago

Saturday night out? *looks at first two on that list*

Is there something you want to talk about lol.

Marcello3913d ago

Are you offering a shoulder to cry on then ??

ABeastNamedTariq3915d ago

WHAT? Are you kidding me? /s

The sad thing is, even with all those descriptors, the parents of many 12 year olds will get their kid this game, say "Here you go Timmy!", and let the game do the babysitting and parenting. Then when they see what actually goes on in the game they'll be outraged and go to a senator (or lawyer, etc.) to try and tax or ban violent games because "children shouldn't have access to this". -_- I see it coming.

contradictory3913d ago

my parents always bought me M rated games
surprisingly enough they never complained about it.
the reason being that they told me that video games
are different from reality.

Have you ever tried simply turning off the TV, sitting down with your children, and hitting them?

Salooh3913d ago (Edited 3913d ago )

Violence didn't effect me when i was a kid. You can cut someone head and torture him in that game and i wouldn't feel anything , i saw that in real life and made me sick so that prove to me violence in video games don't do anything as long you acknowledge the difference between reality and games. But nudity does , so i wouldn't recommend any one to let their kids play a game that include it. There is a reason that we feel bad about it. That's really important in my opinion ..

Cost of realistic looking movement.

lucasnooker36d ago

Rockstar need to learn that 12 years of work and 5000 employees doesn’t account for one persons opinion on the internet…

Profchaos36d ago (Edited 36d ago )

Oh and hundreds of millions of dollars in revanue to boot.

Lots of complaints about gta ever since the hd era started and yet it's bugger than its ever been with gta vi up to 180 million trailer views alone. The next game is shaping it be be another genre defining game

MetalGearsofWar36d ago

They already learned they dont have to actually make a great game

sagapo36d ago

The controls of RDR2 felt a but cluncky indeed, but it’s not as bad as some make it out to be. At no point did I get the feeling my experience with the game was held back or ruined by the controls.
But it can never hurt to optimize them a bit, sure.

Zhipp36d ago (Edited 36d ago )

I did accidentally beat someone to death a couple times. An unfortunate mistake but besides that I didn't have any problems with the controlls

jznrpg36d ago

Red Dead Redemption felt clunky at first but I got used to it fairly quick. I thought 2 was easier to control but it could be my experience with the first game helped me out. Great games

Profchaos36d ago

I wouldn't call Rockstar games characters clunky instead they feel like they move with Weight they are not twitch controls press x to instantly snap onto cover the characters instead move like a actor would ducking behind cover they are exposed while they get there.
