Ok, not my problem anyways.

As for those other news bits... Ugh! They just burn me up even more. :mad: Stupid people making stupid assumptions.
 
From the first article
"...Ringo Cayard, executive director of the Haitian American Foundation, said the last thing the Haitian community wanted was for the controversy to boost the game's popularity.

"They've made money out of the blood and tears of a whole nation," he said.

Oh, shut the **** up will you?! :rolleyes:

I can't believe the extent people will go to for attention and money.
According to the theories all these people filing suits have I should be on my way to kill my old math teacher right about now (he's Cuban and one of the best damn teachers I ever had)

This is all getting worse. This thread is depressing...
 
Oh My ****ing God! Another stupid ****ing piece of **** parent? :rolleyes: :rolleyes: I can see R* going bankrupt real soon... ****ing stupid parents. :rolleyes:
 
This one will really piss you off. There is a story and a link to a video clip of a news cast story. Its a New York City TV station (local CBS station)

Watch the second video clip called "shame on you: Rockstar...." I'm not sure how big it is so if you are on dialup it might take a while to download--

Here is the link.

Its nice that the news story, in pursuit of the truth, did not mention that in the game you are--killing the haitian gang members, not all the haitian people. They essentially call the game a training/brainwashing tool for genocide (they don't use these words but allude to it).

Enjoy

"Urge to kill lawyers and news people rising....."
 
what about all the war games and FPS. Thery are more violent and have the same message as VC.
 
:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: X 100,000.






I'm about to ****ing puke. :rolleyes: There are thousands of games out there, more violent than Vice, and they use Vice City as an example to ****ing whine about because the retards dont see there are other games A HELLA LOT MORE VIOLENT then this one. See them complaining about them? NOPE. Does R* actually want to make people think that they want them to go out on the streets and kill? NOPE. Everybody is making a big deal out of nothing! Hell, R* did not even want to cause A SINGLE GODDAMN bit of damage from this game. Do those ****ing goofy bastard *****es want to end the GTA series? OF COURSE! But BOO ****ING HOO, Gta: San Andreas is on the way! http://www.gtasanandreas.com and

Latest regarding Haitian lines:

Rockstar has caved and is removing the lines "kill all Haitians" from the game and the cutscene in future copies of the game.

http://www.detnews.com/2003/technology/0312/11/technology-4577.htm


A haitian group in florida says "that isn't good enuf" and wants the game banned from stores. Also, Florida attorney general is investigating whether the game violates hate crime laws.

http://www.palmbeachpost.com/localn...ursday/south_county_f37d8fa956b050e800ac.html

Also, want the game recalled:

http://1010wins.com/topstories/winstopstories_story_344235048.html


Next game to be called:

Grand Theft Auto: Mayberry

Where everyone is friends and weapons are never fired (except by clumsy deputies).

Ron Howard to do the voice of Opie.

:banghead:

I think Rockstar should edit new versions of the game and replace the word "Haitian" with "LAWYER" and also, change the haitian skins to new lawyer skins (business men with briefcases).
 
I mean WTF its not being preduictise agains Hiatians Hell i dont even know there were such people called haitians (who are they any way). Should the next GTA make up gangs and races so to avoid all of this bull****
 
Vice City has been available for over a year now. Why the uproar now about the Haitian gang thing?

Or are Rockstar merely the scapegoat of the month. First they cause drive by shootings on random civilians, now they're guilty of racist hate crime?

Because of the news cast on the NYC CBS station-- see link above.

The story was just ran recently and its they type of story that both the liberal feel good media and the conservative (moral outrage side) media can sink their teeth into--this rarely happens.

Obviously the mainstream media had no idea that we are all playing a game that teaches you to be racist and commit genocide--

I wish I could kill all the haitians in the game--but the fu@kers keep spawning....:lol:

I hate those goddamned Haitians. I only really go after them and not the other gangs is because they're always taking potshots at me. I usually ignore the Cubans because they ignore me.

:mad: If the Grand Theft Auto series gets banned in Florida (can they do that?) I will be one pissed of little person.
 
This is about to make me go out and take a **** all over the idiot parents that blame R* if they went and bought V.C. for their kid, and were stupid enough to have a gun in the house,and their kids are stupid enough to take that gun and kill people. I mean, WHAT THE ****!!!!! I'm 15 and i tried several times to get the game, the stores said i was too young, but one store told me that i was probably mature enough to buy it, so IT ISN'T ROCKSTAR'S FAULT!!!!!! WHY THE **** ARE PEOPLE SO OBSESSED WITH MONEY!!!!!!!!

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :confused: :confused: :confused: :mad: :mad: :mad: :banghead: :banghead:
 
When I get a new PC, which will be shortly, I'm gonna install Vice City on it first thing. And if everyone has to bring the game back to where they got it from, I guess I will be forced to bring back my Harddrive where I got it from, too. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: But I know that will not happen because of those ****ing whiney bastards are ****ing whining and complaining that "Hatian" was used in Vice City a few times. Hell, R* did not even know THERE WAS A REAL HATIAN GROUP! :rolleyes: Since "Hatian" has been used in that game a few times, why is it such a big ****ing deal? Oh boo ****ing hoo. We are not insulting the real Hatian group, we're killing them on a 100% MADE UP VIDEO GAME! ****ers. :rolleyes:
 
If they do manage to force a recall (which I doubt will happen), I'm sure it will be a voluntary recall so I wouldn't start burying your copies of VC in the back yard just yet.
 
ok first of all people are just pissed that somebody died in theyre family and they say the killer played gta and decided to kill everyone i mean who in their right mind would do wut they see in a VIDEO GAME! its just a bunch of **** but this whole thing should slowly die down now that the news is focused on saddam be captured. also hattians and hattian gang members are totally different i mean its ok to fictionaly (as in video game) kill a gang person. and the game never said kill all the hattian people in the world they meant the gang member hattians, the people that r trying to sue rockstar would have kno that if they had played the game! and rockstar shouldnt have had to delete the entire line they could have just said kill all the hattian gang members! and anyways videogames are meant to be sensless mindless idiotic phyco non real fun where u cant get hurt and they should leave it at that instead of being a*swipes about it!

(forgive me for spellin errors im typing out of rage!and maddness at the people who hate gta because its violent)! why do the news people and the lawyer type people have to be so mean to gta?!

Yeah. They somehow REALLY hated me after I did Trojan voodoo. Like knocking me off my bike and taking cheap shots at me.
