Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas Version 2

The developers of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas ship a newer, less sexual version of the hit game.

After the disclosure that a hack could expose an explicit consensual sex scene in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the game's rating was changed to AO for Adults Only from its previous Mature rating status. The ratings change caused many retailers to pull the popular title from shelves in the wake of the scandal.

In response, Rockstar Games is releasing a new edition of the game that removes the explicit content and is rated M for Mature. This game no longer has the hackable content that presented the famous Hot Coffee scene. Of course, the heroic CJ will continue shooting up the bad guys in Santos and engaging in all of the other activities that have made the Grand Theft franchise both controversial and beloved.

In some areas of the country, the M-rated Xbox version of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is already available and the PC version is slated to ship the third week of September.
