You act like this is new for a GTA game. I seem to rememeber the other GTA games being similar.

Your character is a villian who is going to cause all sorts of trouble... as such the game designers are going to focus on the negatives of society...

why?

Most people are going to feel bad about carjacking grandma's and upstanding citizens.

By focusing on and enhancing the negatives of the US in Liberty City it's easier to think your victims deserve it. That's why in most games where you play a villain(or at best an anti-hero) your main antaganists are going to be villians.

I agree with that reasoning, But I'm not acting like this is new. I did not have a place to post these thoughts when San Andreas came out. I do think if this country had food riots like other countries. Everything would be far worse than anything they can think up at rockstar

I don't see food riots hitting the US. We should be one of the last people hit by the problems with the shortages of the food markets. Heck people still try and kill Dandelions... which were brought to America as a foodstuff. Which is kind of a tragic thing when you consdier the food crisis.

Of course then again, the biggest problem with the food crisis is rice.  Yet still.  It's interesting how people tend to ignore the "free" food that are Dadnelions.

They make a good wine too... or so i hear.
