Video of an Attempted Rape in Grand Theft Auto V Emerges Online

CraveOnline: "Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto V features an open-world in which random events are trigged that the player can actively involve themselves in. Often these events are a case of someone’s vehicle/purse/wallet being stolen, thus allowing the player to go and retrieve the personal belongings for the victim in exchange for a cash reward."

[SeanScythe]

Those are the crazy canibles they abduct people and eat them. Some are nude..

[JaredH]

It's also been in the game since launch. I took an in-game photo when it happened to me, over a year ago, because it was the first time I encountered a nude person in the game lol.

Proof: http://i.imgur.com/toezRvW....

[Dee_91]

I ran them all over on accident my first go round

[Lightning Mr Bubbles]

Yeah I've seen this a few times during the game. One of the guys is naked and has a penis, I thought it was kinda weird.

The first time I also got wasted because I was trying to see what was going on and then they just started shooting me. The second time I saw this, I took no chances, I pulled out my gun and killed both of them but I also killed the girl accidentally, so I still haven't been able to get it done.

[Tapani]

You thought it was weird for a guy to have a penis?

[Raziology]

Off topic: Shouldn't Mr. Bubbles have more than 2 bubbles? No offense intended. Just wondering.

[stunkilla]

lmao your comment made me die laughing when u thought it was kina weird for a male to have a penis.

[sanosukegtr123]

the right thing to do is... aiming a rocket launcher at there FACE!!

[badz149]

and this is a problem because? I'm genuinely surprised this is popping up as news over a year after it was released. I played GTAV for the 1st time on PS4 and was caught by surprised too by this random event but I just shot them both on the crotch and saved the girl. that's a good thing right there. why does anyone wanna make this as a big issue?

[Kornholic]

I suppose this has got something to do with the SJW/Anita Sarkeesian/Games Cause Misogyny -agenda.

[BLAKHOODe]

Because that's what the media does. They bring up issues to spark controversy; therefore making their articles/websites/newspapers relevant. It's how they get paid. Journalism at it's finest.

[the_mack_attack3]

The word "rape" is in the title! People flock to click things like this the same way they click all the N4G stories that have a half naked Tekken fighter as the featured image.

[d0x360]

This is clickbait crap from crave online. That scene is not an attempted rape and the only person who would assume it is is someone who hasn't played the damn game.

Its the altruist cult trying to kidnap and brainwash young people who use technology. A lot of them are nude.

It is NOT ATTEMPTED RAPE. More sensationalist nonsense from another one of these sites trying to destroy gaming. Towing that line of games cause violence, sexism and rape. When are gamers going to wake up and see the truth about what's going on? One of your hobbies is under attack. Stand up and fight before some 75 year old moron makes a law and you can't play them anymore.

[JonnyBigBoss]

NOT cool. What was Rockstar thinking?

[Clown_Syndr0me]

Correction: Awesome! Respect to R* for having a pair of balls.

[frostypants]

I'm not sure I get what it adds to the game. Is rape amusing to some people? Honest question...what was the point?

[abstractel]

Nothing about GTAV is reality. It's a parody and they choose what to include. Disgusting the amount of people here that support (attempted) rape in a game.

[nowitzki2004]

@thunderbear

Must be a lot of people living in their moms basement that only can get laid by raping someone.

[LackTrue4K]

@nowitzki2004,

so now, your either living in your mams's basement raping girls/men or you have a girl friend....by your standers.

lol...@ people doing there cock measuring online.! ha!

[neoandrew]

@frostypants

Is killing amusing to some people? In gta you doing it the whole time.

[RedDevils]

@neoandrew tell that to all COD/battelfield/CS and all shooting game fans

[Raf1k1]

It's attempted rape which you happen to come across while playing. The game requires you to actually help a poor woman in need. I think the other option is to drop her off with other cannibals.

It's not like there's an option to join in on the rape.

[Clown_Syndr0me]

Another thing. You guys do realise this isn't even attempted rape.
If you do not intervene they kidnap her and drive off and eventually just disappear. There is no rape. Her clothes do not come off. The males genitalia does not come in contact with the woman's. At all.

[Audiggity]

Someone you know was raped and eaten by cannibals? Yeah, Rockstar is so insensitive to this growing epidemic.

/sarcasm

[ion666]

I think it's a social study. It's like youv'e been doing bad the entire game and lets see if you would help someone in need. It seems that most reactions is to actually try and save her which is't a bad thing.

[abstractel]

If you had a _real_ choice, most people would do the right thing. In the Infamous series developers keep trying to get people to go evil but the majority go good. You don't have that choice in GTAV. I'm fine with people liking the game, I played it through to the end and only thing I enjoyed was the gameplay mechanics and occasionally feeling empathy for Franklin.

[elninels]

@thunderbear

No empathy for Trevor? He's mentally ill. His mother is an addict and less nurturing than a desert. He's a lost soul.

Off Topic: Second son is enjoyable, yes. However, sucker punch shouldn't be given so much credit for it's choices. Red or blue? Thats revolutionary.

(Unnecessary, possibly incendiary statement incoming)
We all know if rockstar got into the super heroes genre it would be much better than infamous.

[SilentNegotiator]

"so much credit for it's choices"? Infamous ONE got flak for its 2 choice morality system.

[Halo2ODST2]

You know the game has Murder in it right, damn! what was Rockstar thinking allowing you to mass murder people and commit war crimes, but Rape, this is worse, you know, what's worse than rape, Attempted Rape, HOW dare Rockstar -- Sarcasm

[nowitzki2004]

Every game has murder. Very very few have rapes.

Some girls get raped and then murdered, should that be my goal in videogames?

[elninels]

@nowitzki2004

- Some guys get raped, and then murdered as well. But rape is just a woman's problem, I forgot.

- Would someone be allowed to write publish a book involving rape? What about a movie? Oh wait.

- What makes a video game so different? Specifically a video game that so often "goes there"?

- Then there is the fact that you can stop it. Is there a better way of communicating that WE are the only people that can step in when WE see something like that.

Either way we are discussing rape. This is a good thing. It means we're willing to acknowledge it. Acknowledging something is always a stepping stone to understanding and then progressing. Would we be having this discussion if rockstar had not included this in the game?

[Orionsangel]

It's not meant to be anything other than another violent moment in the violent world of the game. It can be an ugly world. What's interesting is how players react to the situation. I've seen clips of this scene before and most gamers save the girl. Which goes to show you that most people in the real world have good intentions.

[nowitzki2004]

I agree. I love Rockstar but we dont need this. Whats next? child abductions? Child molesting? Thats the only direction I can seem them going in next.

[dazzysima]

I'll go with that depending on how much gamerscore it is worth.

[deafdani]

To all of you clowns criticizing the presence of rape in GTAV: do you think murder is somehow better? Because GTAV has lots and lots more murder than rape, yet I don't see you guys saying anything about THAT.

>_>

[Shadowstar]

Murder isn't better, but few victims of murder are out there playing video games, you know? Plus, people know going in that there's going to be guns and explosions and killing. People with PTSD can avoid it if they need to avoid all explosions or images of death. On the other hand, a rape victim who doesn't know about a rape scene might not realize s/he needs to avoid this game to avoid triggering an episode.

I think GTA should be able to have rape in it if the devs want it to-- although I reserve the right to criticize it just as I reserve the right to criticize gameplay in Final Fantasy. Custer's Revenge should be allowed to put in the rape of native women, but I still think it's a piece of shit racist, sexist game and should be criticized.

I also think that those who want to avoid that type of violence because it has affected them in real life should be able to avoid it. If it's on the box, then people just need to pay attention, but I suspect it's not...

[Shadowstar]

All you people who disagreed without commenting? Okay. You're right.

There's a nation of undead gamers with PTSD who can't tell when murder is involved in a game, and if we helped protect rape victims, we'd have to protect the undead too by putting that there was death on the box. (Or, I guess the alternative reading is that rape victims don't really exist. It's a feminist plot to emasculate men and damage your games, which women shouldn't be playing anyways!) Rape should be forced in the faces of people who've been raped, even if it's going to damage them psychologically because they're not ready to deal with it, because fuck them.

And games should be completely exempt from criticism, even games with long hallways of bad gameplay.

Whatever. #EthicsInGameJournalism

[extermin8or]

You guys all know this is something you are meant to prevent from occurring by intervening right....

[DigitalRaptor]

You don't shy away from it in film or TV, so why should Rockstar shy away from it in games? Cause it's a more influential medium? Gimme a break. This is an event where you're supposed to intervene, and I'm sure most people would.

That studio has always been about representing the culture we live in.

Feminazis will be all over this now that someone made an article about it, but they've never wanted to truthfully or fairly represent this game or games as a medium, or gamers themselves.

Just watch this amazing video which shows the Feminazis and SJWs like Sarkeezian and the mass media that cling onto lies and misrepresentations to further their poisonous agendas: https://www.youtube.com/wat...

[23Breach]

Fuck off

[mzupeman]

I'm not sure what PEOPLE are thinking that haven't played the game.

Cannibals. This isn't an attempted rape. Period.

[ftwrthtx]

It's a cult thing.

[Jarhead1776]

I was raped by Bill Cosby!

[INTOmyMOUTH]

Getting hard

[Larry L]

LOL

[annoyedgamer]

Now watch the SJWs start the wahhbulance up and R* will be forced to patch it out.

[NarooN]

Forced? R* hardly ever even publicly speaks, they're not gonna cave in to random SJW's lol, at best they will laugh in their faces and mock them even harder.

[Ogygian]

Just about every other company caves to the 1% most obnoxious sjw players who campaign to get their own way.

[thehobbyist]

R* won't budge. They didn't even budge when politicians. People with ACTUAL power tried to pressure them.

You think a mob of shallow hypocrites with dyed hair will incite action from them?

[ChristopherJack]

I disagreed with you purely because of your choice to use the word 'wahhbulance'. I agree with your context though.

[TheHunter81]

They are called The Altruist Cult

The Altruist Cult is a malevolent religion comprised entirely of old men from the baby boom generation that follow Altruism and believe that all other generations after them are the cause of all problems in the world. They also have distaste for technology, even though some members use cars, and the entire group maintains a website.

Members can be seen walking around half naked, some fully naked, with their penises on show. The cult makes their home in a small, but functional fortified village with numerous buildings painted with their livery.

You can actually do a mission for them where you deliver people for them to eat and after a certain amount they try to invite you into their compound and if you refuse they turn on you and attack you. Just make sure your well prepared to fight because its a big mansion full of these nuts.

[MyDietEqualsGames]

That's so rad, man. It's almost mind blowing. Thanks for the info, btw.

[ZombieKiller]

To add to what hunter said, go to the camp in the mountains online with a few friends for a pretty good fight. It's a neat little village with a really weird, yet cool look to it.

Under the cliff that faces the front is a cool little cave with some markings and a lit fire in it.

Sooo......this game came out a year ago and they notice this event now? Has anyone seen the hillbilly brothers in the Winnebago yet by the windmill farm? That one is really bad too.

If you haven't been offended by GTA at this point you

A) Obviously see it for what it is and accept the fact that it is there to entertain and make fun of
or
B) You have no clue what GTA is because you live under a rock

[CorndogBurglar]

lol "Full of these nuts".

Good choice of words :)

[Skate-AK]

Bubz well said. Sounds like a lot of people in the comments haven't played GTA V. They don't hide the cult in any way.

[Psychotica]

wow, I have never seen that before..

[ThunderPulse]

I came across this event on the PS3 and thought it was amazing.

[MysticStrummer]

I guess so, if you came across it.

[isa_scout]

Ok I'm gonna ask the obvious question: Where did that naked guy pull his pistol from?
*South Park Voice* Just let me check yo azz hole.

[Gh05t]

If Cartman can hide a disney ride this guy can hide a guns.

[WeAreLegion]

Go on. Kiss it. Apologize...

[sugawalls]

Pathetic way to make an article considering this "strangers and freaks" mission was in the old gen version.

But because Anita arsetwatkeesian has become popular all you so called "games journalists" jump on the band wagon of kissing her tranny backside. Yes. Tranny backside to make yourselves look politically correct although you look like a bunch of idiots I'd leave in a burning house to save a pig.

I'm jewish and that pig ain't Kosher son.

[Sketchy_Galore]

I agree with the general point you're trying to make but let's be honest, you'd only really save the pig because it's the only one you can stick your penis in without it calling the police.

[kenwonobi]

Nonstory. Grow up. Gamers did. Lets be honest most gamers are in their 30's now. Some in their 40's and 50's. Kids play these less than adults do now.

[ChristopherJack]

I the gaming ages demographic would be fairly evenly split between those that are under 30 & those that are over 30.

[TWB]

I actually thought that they caught players online performing a so called "rape act"

Glad it was not that. Would have been a ridiculous news article (not saying that this isnt slightly)

[snookiegamer]

I don't see any reference to 'RAPE' in the video at all. The event could have been anything.

Sensationalism at its finest ;/

[mysteryraz11]

should have just watched not interrupted

[nowitzki2004]

He reacted naturally. Hes a good guy.

Im sure she would have gotten up eventually and either ran and they chase her, or fight back and they shoot her and walk separate ways like nothing happened.

[ChristopherJack]

He got smoked by a pair of nuts, such a hero.

[ajax17]

I just encountered this a couple days ago. Is this something new? Why is this news? PS3 version here, so it's not PS4 or X1 exclusive.

[SaveFerris]

I remember this encounter from the PS3/360 version, only I didn't get killed by the cultists. Never considered where the guy with no pants got the gun from lol.

[MultiConsoleGamer]

This is not an attempted rape and the website that posted the video knows it. This is very poor journalism.

The fact that this site would exploit the terrible crime of rape for click bait is pretty disgusting.

The people in this video are part of a cult from the mountains. They are called the Altruists. Go to their compound and you will see that they're almost always walking around naked. That woman has escaped the cult. They are trying to kidnap her and bring her back to their compound.

With that said, if I saw a naked man sitting on top of a defenseless woman I would shoot him as well.

[vork77]

Its just a game ok

[DaigotheKing]

This isn't an attempted rape. If you do nothing they put the woman in the car and drive away. This is just a kidnapping.

He isnt attempting to "mount" her, he's getting ready to pick her up and and put her in the car. How's he going to get his dick in her with all her clothes on anyway?

Whatever happens to people the Alturist cult kidnaps is never outright stated, but it's implied they like to eat people, especially young people.

What a lame attempt at stirring controversy.

[DoctorRedBeard]

can't wait to watch the crybabies to come out tonight and start crying over a (Swear Alert) f*cking video game.

It's a game. I applaud rockstar for having a pair of balls.

If you think this game is horrible. That is your own problem for being such a god damn (Swear Alert) p*ssy and not being able to tell the difference between fake and reality.

[PainUzumaki]

LOL he died

[trywizardo]

i think this is the girl that have a mafia dad , and he will give you money for saving her :D

[Theangrybogan]

Nah it's not that one, those guys are digging a shallow grave to bury her in not trying to kidnap her

[Dyldog69]

What a pussy he got shot by a would be naked rapist and his would rapist onlooker

[DaigotheKing]

Theyre not rapists they want to sacrifice her and drink her blood.

[Dyldog69]

Oh OK excuse me

[sanosukegtr123]

I'm sure all gamers who play gta 5 and came across this event will shoot them. Happened about twice and that time i was playing as Trevor oh yeah, I went nuts.

[BC_Master_Haze]

Does anyone know how this ends if you just don't suck and die? Stupid SJW journalist, must have the mental capacity of a child to write such a ridiculous article and be so horrible at GTA.

[DaigotheKing]

They kidnap her. The Alturist cult eats young people and drink their blood. This was only ever a kidnapping attempt.

[BC_Master_Haze]

I thought so :P pretty sure that guy would need to take a viagra lol and if he is an Altruist he wouldn't. I would just tail their car, see what they do, then maybe intervene

[chikane]

haha that player sucks how in the world did he get waste in that little shootout?

[Tankbusta40]

This is hilarious... But also hilarious that people get offended by events in a video game

[RG_Dubz]

Meh.. Saved a chick from being raped in Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood, wouldn't be anything we hadn't seen before.

[kaozgamer]

Lmao how did you fuck that up?

[ginsunuva]

He died still lol!

[AidenPearce]

First of all this has been in the game since it's launch on past-gen. These guys most probably belong to the cult in that exits in the game. You can stop the rapists and give the victim a ride (Not sure on the latter.)

And secondly, the guy playing in the vid was shooting everywhere but at the rapists.

[pperfectly305]

This is very much the same act (if not visually worse) that got Hotline Miami 2 banned in Australia. Serious gaps and holes in AUS censorship. Content is subjective, it's not real, I don't find it offensive, and I sure as hell wouldn't be influenced by, do or condone such an act just because it's in a video game.

[Kalebninja]

wait guys so if a video game one day portrays a child getting raped is that okay? its only a video game right? This is the problem nowadays you guys think anything should be allowed in a game simply because it isn't real.

[arbitor365]

Yes. Why wouldn't it be? Why is it so hard to comprehend that there is a difference between art and reality?

I know that is hard for some people, especially SJWs, to accept this, because they have strong emotional feelings on these issues. But I hate animal cruelty with an intense passion, but should people be charged for animal cruelty for killing or torturing virtual animals? Of course not. Unless I blindly appeal to emotion and self righteous moralization.

[arbitor365]

This kind of "journalism" is the reason that #gamergate exists. SJW journalists slander games, they slander gamers, and they expect to not be called out on it.

Just look at the recent ABC news debacle, where they blatantly lied and misrepresented watchdogs and GTAV. This is a war being waged on our hobby and it is more serious than when Jack Thompson tried it.

[pop-voxuli]

To all the f***ing perverts condoning this, 'grats dude you're part of the problem.

[Kizwiz6]

Yes, because supporting the depiction of rape is the same as advocating for it? Are you happy to play this game and kill innocent civilians too? Why is rape considered more taboo than all these other heinous crimes?

[The7Reaper]

So this is new I came across this when I first got the game when it came out I just ran them over

[ArtificiallyYours]

Dude this was just a goofy shout out to Hills Have Eyes or whatever it could be referencing. Pulling the Rape card just makes you look insecure.

[LightDiego]

The SJW journalists strike back, and i wonder how some gamers are still against #GamerGate.

[DarthSocio]

I saw that when I played it on 360, was amazing tbh. I'm surprised hardly anyone's seen this

[ScaryMonkey]

Why are we feeding the angry mom brigade with old news?

[extermin8or]

Anyone else had the random event in desert as Trevor where someone shouts for help, you go to help her and some guy tasers you, then he wakes up on railway line in underwear lol...

[Akira2020]

Okay, now I'm going to protest the game............once I finish playing it.

[jeenyus]

Bullshit articles like this is why we can't have nice things in gaming.

[GokuSolosAll]

Killing? Sure! Rape? You monster!

[TheFreshPrince]

It's not rape it's an attempted kidnapping. If you actually listen to the in-game dialogue you'd actually know that. Not to mention this has been in the game since September 17, 2013.

[jcnba28]

This kinda stuff shouldn't be in a game.

[zpoc]

don't worry, it's actually NOT in the game. this article is misconstruing something in to something it's not.

[kingPoS]

That's Rockstar, always giving you the choice to pump a cultist with an agenda full of hot lead.

The choice is yours, being the girl to safety, or let a deranged character carry her to parts unknown.

Or you could (accidentally) run them both over, not even realising anything peculiar was going on.

Gateway MT6706 2008

[_LarZen_]

The people complaining about the crazy things happening in a game must have a hell of a time in real life.

[hiawa23]

I killed them. The game is not for kids.

[WESKER2015]

Hahahaha, rape, these guys need to play more video games.

[zpoc]

i'm done with crave online. never looking a their site again.

[Valenka]

So...because one of them was naked, it's automatically attempted rape? Are you kidding? Most of the Altruist cult members are naked. There was an alleged "expose" about the same scene and it was clarified that it was an attempted KIDNAPPING, not a rape.

Jesus Christ.

[TX800]

so this is why they found two 5 year old trying to have sex in the bathroom at school.
