Blake is a big fan of Grand Theft Auto and when Jeff is out here, he loves to play it with Jeff. Blake's such a good kid, but he likes the game, mostly using cheats to drive a tank around or drive through the water or fly. I never had access to it before I met Blake, and I was always dying to play. Blake is the one who first showed it to me. I' ( Read more... )

I'm not familiar with the XBox version (and I don't know which GTA you're playing here) but I know that in some versions you can pick up a prostitute, drive to a secluded area, park, and then the car will start shaking, your money will drop, and your health will refill.

Yeah, that works on GTA III, Vice City and San Andreas on PS2, Xbox an the PC. The result being that it increases your health above 100%, which I find rather amusing.

Wait, just for the record, no one ever claimed that you could rape a prostitute in any of the GTA games. The thing that Congress got all pissed about was the fact that buried inside of the code of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is a minigame where the main character has sex with his girlfriends. It's completely inaccessible from the regular game and is basically orphaned code. However, for PC copies of the game, the gaming community wrote a patch called the Hot Coffee mod which reinserted the code back into regular gameplay. It's only doable on the PC version of the game b/c PC software is easily rewritten.

For some reason I can't find a good screencap of the mod in action, but this should give you a good idea:

This is a brilliant observation. Because I don't think Congress wanted us to know exactly what could be done...they wanted me in soccer mom mode running around pissed off about rape and explicit sex in GTA. The fact that I had this misinformation about it being more lurid than it is is, well, a perfect illustration of the point I was trying to make. :)
