AP and Reuters have released stories about hidden sex scenes in the PC version of GTA: San Andreas, taken up by Hiawatha Bray at The Boston Globe.
This is old news to Gamesblog readers, of course, which carried the story on June 14.
Basically you have to apply the Hot Coffee mod to reveal a short, cartoon sex scene.
This has now stimulated a complaint by "Assembly Speaker pro Tem Leland Yee (D-San Francisco/Daly City), child psychologist and legislator who has pushed for laws limiting children's access to ultra-violent video games, today blasted the Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB) for failing to appropriately rate the best-selling video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas," according to his press release.
The point is that -- although it's supposed to be inaccessible -- it's in a game. Otherwise it's not as good as stuff you could get on the Mac 20 years ago, and it's a lot easier to find real porn on the Web than go to the effort of making the mod to GTA.
Either way, the publicity could give another boost to sales of a game that has made pots of money from being offensive. If Rockstar is really lucky, it could get lots of free promotion in The Daily Mail.
