I was pointed in the direction of GamePolitics this morning, they had a piece about a blogger who noticed quite a bit of racism in Grand Theft Auto franchise. The writer, a schoolteacher in a NEw York City, seems only to be half clued in on the topic about which he writes.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
As we have all been graced by the release of Grand Theft Auto 6's trailer, we're ranking the best and worst GTA trailers to date.
We be getting these posts All week now lads. Someone noticed a number plate ... Someone noticed a billboard... I can see it now
Just go on YouTube and watch one of the many videos dissecting the whole 1minite 30secs worth.
This site supposed to be for news.
These updates on N4G are going to ruin whats rest of this site. Unfortunate since I was one of the first members.. The site shows unsecure when i login as well.
Grand Theft Auto 4 is an important game for Rockstar, not least because it was the first title in the franchise to use the newly created RAGE engine.
Naughty Dog bought Rockstar
it depends on how you at the series of games, but personally i don't think GTA is racist..
You can find racism anywhere, if you're looking hard enough. As usual, this is meaningless.
lol i love this argument. Just because you dont portray a race positively doesnt mean its racist. AKA the negation of good doesnt mean the presence of evil and so on and so forth. I dont really remember any blatantly racist remarks or actions, but hey I cant remember and to tell you the truth I would expect it. Most people in GTA are low-brow thugs, what they he!! do you expect? Conversation about metaphysics and epistemology? Give me a break.
Just because the main character is black (san andreas) white (GTA3 & Vice City) or Russian (GTAIV) doesnt mean that it shows racism. As we can see, R* loves to be diverse in their "racism".
