If you’re going to keep getting publicity for new games, the shock factor has to increase every time. Eventually, it will probably be impossible to shock anyone so it’s impressive that GTA V still managed to cause outrage with its 2013 release, despite the fact that you would just expect sex, murder and violence from any GTA game. The mission that caused the controversy was “By the Book” where the player has to torture an Azerbaijani fugitive, followed by a monologue from one of the characters about how ineffective torture was. It was meant to be a satire on America’s methods of dealing with foreign prisoners but there was immediate outcry about the “poor taste” of the mission. Add it onto the usual GTA murder mayhem and you have possibly the most violent game ever.
