"Worried that GTA: Chinatown Wars was going to be a watered-down GTA experience? As in, toned down for the kids? No need to worry about that, as it's been revealed that not only do Rockstar have Nintendo's blessing to pitch the game at adults ("They didn't want us to make a GTA for kids, and we weren't interested in making a game we wouldn't normally make), but that the game will let the player buy and sell prohibited narcotics. In a drug-dealing minigame. There's six drugs on offer, all of them real drugs, so if you're one of those strange, insecure types who like to get super-defensive in advance of sensationalist tabloid headlines, now's the time to start ensuring your hackles are raised."

Be afraid!

Someone should edit the Ace Attorney part of that picture.



 

Seriously, I could see this being bigger than Hot Coffee...



Selling drugs is not actually new to GTA (remember the Mr. Whoopee minigame in Vice City), though if you can decide which drugs to offer it'll be an interesting change. And yes, it will cause more controversy undoubtedly




guess that they were serious when they said that this would be mature.

Won't be that big of a deal though... I don't think.

Depends on how this does.

Mr Whoopee as in the IceCream trucks with tits on the roof? O_o
Don't remember that mission... I mustn't have gotten that far into Vice City.

Still, if this is actually an essential means of making money in the game, and with real drugs...

It's not exactly a mission, when you buy the Mr. Whoopee factory, you can sell the ice creams to the pedestrians, which are of course covered by SPANK (GTA's fictional drug)




But Nintendo hasn't changed their censorship policies since the 1980s. The bashers say so!



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
