"Nintendo didn't want us to make GTA for kids" - Houser

12
Rockstar vice president Dan Houser has spoken out about how Chinatown Wars will be just as adult as other GTA games when it launches, despite its DS roots.

Talking in the latest issue of EDGE, Houser stated:

"Nintendo wanted us to make GTA, and we wanted to make GTA on their platform. They didn't want us to make a GTA for kids, and we weren't interested in making a game we wouldn't normally make. GTA is about stealing cars and shooting people - how could it not be an 18 rating? You couldn't do GTA without that 18 - it wouldn't feel like it's supposed to feel."

I didn't like GTAIII, VC, or SA.

GTAIV was really fun. I don't understand your hatred.

GTA4 was an amazing game. Im not a diehard GTA fan either. If it was sh*t i would say its sh*t, but i thought it was brilliant game. The story was seriously good and the missions were very good too.

I still play it online, still haven't got bored of it.
