I've also heard suggestions for a married couple-a modern day Bonnie and Clyde. No, I'm with Paul Tassi on this: What I would really like to see a female protagonist in a GTA game-just as sociopathic and criminally minded as her male counterparts. Nor is it in its portrayal of women, who are often just as horrible as the men in these games. Where Grand Theft Auto V really falls short isn't the optional atrocities you can commit. There are no orc women in Shadow of Mordor.įortunately for all of us, these games don't cause real-world violence. It's a game that gives you the ability to play out your wildest murder fantasies, or just drive really fast. It's not unique in its killing canvas, only in that it also allows you to kill both sexes. Grand Theft Auto is a murder sandbox, like so very many of its contemporaries. Of course, I don't need to do that either. Pretty soon you're just barely hanging on by a thread, the bodies of your digital victims only outnumbered by the forces amassed against you. Start with the sniper rifle, then move to the rocket launcher.

Hey it may be mass murder, but it's just a pixel puzzle to me.Ĭlimb to the top of some high building. I don't mind the occasional mass shooting spree. There's no challenge and the whole prostitution thing in the franchise has always struck me as a little creepy rather than fun.


Personally, I don't enjoy that aspect of the game. But you don't have to kill sex workers in GTA V, any more than you have to kill pedestrians.
