Industry ratings board to investigate Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and The Daily Music and Tech News

Part of: Daily Music and Tech News

the industry ratings board will investigate Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas after hacker code unlocks sexually explicit scenes. The scenes, dubbed “hot coffee” have caused some critics to call for a move from the rating “M” (Mature 17+) to “AO” (Adult Only). The modification is for the PC version of the game and allows simulated sex scenes. The game received its M rating for its violence, gore, strong language and sexual content. The board’s inquiry will determine whether the games were deliberately hidden in the game or if they are a result of the “hot coffee” code.
