An extremely popular and controversial video game series developed by Rockstar Games. The gameplay consists of taking on the persona of a criminal in a fictional city and completing quests which often involve theft, killing, or any other type of major crime. Carjacking is one of the most common(and popular) means of acquiring transportation. Random violence against pedestrians using a variety of weapons is also a fairly popular side act. If too much violence is committed however, the police will be alerted, and depending on the severity of your actions, will bring a very appropriate level of force to take you out.
The goal of the game ultimately is to eventually rise in the ranks of an organized crime syndicate and bring the persona’s story to its conclusion. The game’s adult content has often been the target of criticism by parents groups and conservative organizations citing the game’s inappropriateness for young children. Numerous attempts have been made to have the games banned or at least employ a far stricter rating system. Despite the controversy, Grand Theft Auto has lost none of its appeal. Its sequels are always hotly anticipated and sometimes drive console sails solely on the basis of its availability. Recent installments have seen major Hollywood stars provide their voice for the game’s characters.
