just saw this on slashdot. Rockstar is re-releasing the game minus the hot-coffee stuff. some of the comments on slashdot are pretty amusing.
"This just in, Rockstar North pulled a "Speilberg" today by re-releasing their 'GTA:San Andreas' game without any guns, sex, or even reckless driving available.
First impressions of the game seem to be mixed, as you're only allowed to walk around town and wave to people.
More news, as this develops."
and this one:
"Thank God. I'll be the first person to download and patch my PC version of "Grand Theft Auto." I want to shoot people in the face, bang prostitutes, traffic drugs, steal cars, and terrorize police officers without this filthy smut in my game."
pretty amusing this whole situation. I'm so amazed at how we as a society are so tolerant of violence but the mere hint of sex or nudity and people start freaking out.
