GTA V bevat necrofilie

GTA-games weten altijd voor opschudding te zorgen. Deze opschudding komt vaak van een politicus of andere meneer die zijn mening niet achter stoelen of banken steekt. Met GTA V zal dit niet anders zijn en met het onderstaande heeft Rockstar de tegenstanders van GTA dan ook een aardig argument aangereikt. 

Grand Theft Auto V is recent gekeurd door het ESRB. Geheel in de lijn der verwachting kreeg de game een M-rating, wat betekent dat de game geschikt is voor Mature publiek, de volwassenen. GTA bevat genoeg ingrediënten voor een M-rating, maar voegt deze editie een nieuw ingrediënt toe, namelijk necrofilie. 

De ESRB heeft een beschrijving van de game gegeven, welke hieronder staat weergegeven. 

"Citing Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Mature Humor, Nudity, Strong Language, Strong Sexual Content, Use of Drugs and Alcohol, the M rated Grand Theft Auto V includes the following."

"In this open-world action game, players assume the role of three criminals whose storylines intersect within the fictional city of Los Santos. Players can switch between each character to follow his storyline, completing missions which often include criminal activities (e.g., stealing cars, executing heists, assassinating targets). Players use pistols, machine guns, sniper rifles, and explosives to kill various enemies (e.g., rival gang members); players also have the ability to shoot non-adversary civilians, though this may negatively affect players’ progress as a penalty system triggers a broad police search. Blood-splatter effects occur frequently, and the game contains rare depictions of dismemberment.

In one sequence, players are directed to use various instruments and means to extract information from a character; the sequence is intense and prolonged, and it involves some player interaction (i.e., responding to on-screen prompts). The game includes depictions of sexual material/activity: implied fellatio and masturbation; various sex acts that the player’s character procures from a prostitute—while no nudity is depicted in these sequences, various sexual moaning sounds can be heard. Nudity is present, however, primarily in two settings: a topless lap dance in a strip club and a location that includes male cult members with exposed genitalia in a non-sexual context.

Within the game, TV programs and radio ads contain instances of mature humor: myriad sex jokes; depictions of raw sewage and feces on a worker’s body; a brief instance of necrophilia (no nudity is depicted). Some sequences within the larger game allow players to use narcotics (e.g., smoking from a bong, lighting a marijuana joint); cocaine use is also depicted. Players’ character can, at various times, consume alcohol and drive while under the influence. The words “f**k,” “c*nt,” and “n**ger” can be heard in the dialogue."

Kan dit in een game of is zelfs Rockstar te ver gegaan?
