Grand Theft Auto San Andreas Re-Rated and Pulled Off Shelves

Most retailers including Best Buy and Circuit City pulled Grand Theft Auto San Andreas off their shelves today as the ESRB re-rated the game to the Adults-Only rating. Take-Two basically admitted the sex scene content was in the code of not only the PC version, but the Xbox and PS2 console versions.

"There is sex content in the disc," Take-Two spokesman Jim Ankner told The Associated Press. "The editing and finalization of any game is a complicated task and it's not uncommon for unused and unfinished content to remain on the disc."
