GTA IV Trailer Inflames Big Apple Politicians

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the not-on-our-watch dept.

GP writes "The GTA4 trailer isn't 48 hours old yet, but NYC politicians are up in arms because the game's setting, Liberty City, is a virtual version of the Big Apple." Obviously these guys never played GTA3, since it was also set in the "fictional" Liberty City, that also felt a lot like NYC.

    Yup. Could the /. editors stop these nonsense advertisement ploys? Good lord...

    Tom You misspelled "janitors".

    The chimps that work at slashdot are anything but "editors".

    I'm confused. I thought that GTA3 was Vice City and GTA4 was San Andreas. Wouldn't that make this GTA5? Obviously I've never played a GTA game.
