"Is Rockstar cheekily pushing our beloved medium forward, or simply erecting another financially beneficial controversy trap?"

Oh Ludwig, you and your silly play on words.

Ahh... another patented Ludwig pun-erama. And while I couldn't give a damn about GTA, I'll applaud Rockstar for trying to get people to be a little more loose about censorship in videogames. I mean, seriously... I've seen episodes of Nip/Tuck that are more sexually graphic than the much-hyped sex scene in Mass Effect. (Seriously... it's seem's Nip/Tuck's rule is if you don't show the edge of a dick or a nipple, it's good to air.)

So it's fine to have scantily clad women, not to mention naked ones, in games, but as soon as there's male flash it's "OMG, they have such balls to go there?" This is a great example of how gamers need to get over themselves.

(01) Please tell me...

When the hell has a full frontal shot of a vagina been shown in a game & what game is it?

Until you tell me, you're as of yet, a moron.

LOL...personally, I just don't see some girl who is under the mature category actually playing this game. And if she is, I doubt she won't know what a penis looks like...lol

The overwhelming majority of people that are going to be playing this game will be men.

So I'm watching the video, all like "hmm, this actually sounds like a pretty neat expansion", thinking that his butt was the reference to the nudity, when all of a sudden I get cock slapped at the end of the clip.

*note to self* never click on another movie clip after work ever again.

FFS, it's only a trap if it looks like a woman. If it is clearly a guy, then it is by definition not a trap.

FFS, the correct term for a mouse trap, therefore, must be "mouse capturing device" or something. It can only be called a mouse trap if the device is shaped like a woman, right?

Not everyone has to use your usage of a commonly-used word. Give me a fucking break.

I highly doubt this makes it into the final game. I'm guessing it's just a publicity stunt. First off, I doubt the ESRB would allow an M rating rather than AO if there's full-frontal male nudity. If they would, then Rockstar would've had female nudity in the strip clubs (in fact, exposed breasts are probably less "offensive" than a digital penis).

Next up, I don't recall the original game having a nudity descriptor on the rating. I'm not sure if DLC can have a different rating or descriptors than the game it is for.

Either way, I don't really care. Just make the expansion good enough to justify the price. Hopefully it will be, although the voice acting in this cutscene was pretty weak.

DLC isn't rated by the ESRB. (not sure about full expansion packs)

It's not AO, it fits as a Nudity descriptor in M. And yes, it is rated by the ESRB.

I hear ya man. Damn double standards. Had a womens jugs been shown this would be AO. However a guys schlong is fine for M.

Id also like to point out that ESRB slammed San Andreas with AO for having FULLY CLOTHED characters having sex in a part of the game that is normally inaccessible....

How will L&D work? Will one have to choose it from the Start menu, e.g. "Play the Lost and the Damned"? Otherwise, load a saved game and play as Niko?

So Rockstar gave the PS3 the cock when not releasing the content on that platform, but in turn, gave the 360 hairy balls instead.

WOW....desperate much are we Rockstar?

This is all to create buzz of course. The attention for their overhyped undelivering game has decreased significantly and the only way they could come up with to get some of it back was to resort to this...

Ridiculous...
