No more Hot Coffee.

I refuse to make some snarky, sarcastic entry about the Hot Coffee fiasco. I’ve had it. I don’t care anymore. It went out of control, becoming an orgy of press and populace.

Australia takes action over Hot Coffee

Australia’s Office of Film and Literature Classification have revoked GTA: San Andreas’s current rating as a result of the Hot Coffee modification. Originally the game had the classification MA15+, therefore it could only be sold to those over the age of 15. The game is now banned in Australia from being sold, rented or advertised. The board have stated that
