  • "Picking up strange women" lmao. I like how they show michelle.

  • @SINATRA303 lol she is your girlfriend in the freaking game, at least make some sence with what they are saying, so its not complete bullshit

  • so fucking what its not for no fucking kids!

  • "basing movies on video games and vice verca" ~shivers. We can only hope not

  • Honestly can you guys chill the fuck out? My mom plays the game with me along with my Fiance, and none of us have wanted to kill anyone or sexually assault anyone or anything... -.- Get over this shitty excuse of a news report and find something worth your time

  • the sham wow guy played this thats why he punched a hooker

  • camon you fucking news pricks my grama plays this fucking game lets be real here =__=

  • a storytelling corrupt world we want our kids to live in??  where is the sense of decency gaming companies have in selling this crap??

  • what a crock of shit ! GTA is ruining children's minds all across the US. Trading morality for profit and distracting millions of kids from careers in science, math, and engineering.

  • @coldfusion1111 you should listen to rage against the machine and im a kid ive played these games and i make lots of money with my musical skill at metro stations and parks im not being distraacted buy these games your the one full of shit judging millions of kids cuse a single game intended for adults was released

  • @zillahero all the kids in my neighborhood are emulating from these games instead of learning. You start to worry like me about how these kids will be our leaders of tomorrow in any industry that takes this much of their time away from studying. You can't be the best if you don't study, Period. and if all I see are lazy video gaming kids these days. Many adults & teachers I talk to say the same thing. Junk food in = Junk food out as far as future career aspirations. And we wonder why ..

  • @coldfusion1111 Dont buy the game for the kid then. If a parent complains then it is there fault for buying it.

  • @coldfusion1111 Are you one of those idiotic "BAN THISH FILTHE OLOLOLOLOLLOLAWLLOL!" people?

  • @sonicrocks942 The proof is what I can see in its effects on today's kids. They mention in the video "More compelling characters" huh? hmm ..ok ..fleeing from Police & being thugs? or ..should we encourage kids to hang out more with rocket scientists, sports figures, race car drivers, olympic athletes ? I'm sure you see the distinction. A writer writes. A teacher teaches. An actor acts. What does a kid addicted to these games aspire too? Living in gangs and fleeing the police?

  • @coldfusion1111 Im sure your one of the people who wanted to ban Comic Books in the 50's rock and roll in the 60's weed in the 70's tight pants in the 80's heavy metal in the 90's and rap in the 2000's etc. etc. The fact is that there are much much much much more violent movies, and sexual (and sexist) music and music videos then there are bad video games, maybe there aspiring to be that? Cause Rap is much much more popular then video games....

  • finally a news brodcast that supports violent games. I love u CBS..... for now

  • GTA has been around for along as time now there starting to find this game.

  • Those aren't strange women. Those are prostitutes.

  • If It's one thing Video Games release anger and stress

  • I find it better that kid see things that happen in the real world-alcohol, drugs, sex, violence, etc. If they know about it, they won't think it's that much of a deal. And besides, maybe people should stop blaming the video games, but rather the parents for not telling their children that it isn't ok to shoot a cop in the head and go smoke a joint or whatever. Someone needs to hold the parents responsible.

  • "Picking up strange women" when they showed the girl who Mallorie hooked you up with?

  • most games are better then movies, u can play a game over and ovr and never get bored sometimes. movies r one and done

  • Ok does it suprise anyone else that shows like this only show the "violent, sexual, or bad" parts of this game? How bout they show the excellent story telling or the way someone can create an open world?

  • screw cbs

  • is that pete dorr of of pete's game room 0:58

  • teabaging is sex and violence at the same time

  • plz tell me how gta is violent someone. it is cartoonish with unrealistic reactions of everyone the player destructivly interacts with. don't get me wrong, i love the game, but it's not that voilent when you think about it.

  • you know I'm getting really tired of people blaming video games video game is no different from watching violence and sex in movies comic books etc. people who go on killing spree and blaming GTA they were already fucking stupid and crazy and they blaming video games to try save their own asses by trying to fool the judge to keep them out of prison and placed in a mental hospital.

  • GTA is not violent lady!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! left 4 dead is violent and i dont even think that it is all that bad

  • yeah, movie games have definitely benefited the gamiing world.

    yeah.....

    no

  • i wish a game learned me how to pick up hot though strange women

  • all those people are a bunch of comunnist wankers. its in the 5th amendment people can use what they want and stuff. so fuck you old people

  • For some,but must of us in indocunates you to there way of thinking, but mustly the weak minded.

  • I dont think GTA is a bad influence on kids , i actually thik it teaches a good leason . The leason is is that if u make the wrong choice in ur life , u haf 2 face the consequences

  • i do agree but wheres the consequesnces?

  • fuck of cbs you dont know games

  • hotttttttttttttttttttttttttttt­ttttttttt.

  • haha these news clips are so funny =DD GTA never wanted me to be violent.. tough watching thse cbs clips make me want to stab someone :S

  • how does a violent game make you wanna be violent and surely violent films would do the same?

    who has watched chainsaw masacre and sundenly wanted to chop people up...... nobody thats who.

    the only people who would, probly already did regardless of what film they watched or game they played a nutcase is a nutcase end of story.

  • been playin violent games for 12 yrs and have good grades in school and it also helps take my anger out when tm pissed off

  • it would of been funny if he said " you can even shoot at innocent tax paying christians"

  • gta san andreas ruleee xD

  • Guys...this will never end. Parents will never take care of their responsibilities, politicians will allways pick on games to make "parents" and "good christians" vote for them, and these news guys will allways put this kind of news so you can't see all the bullshit the big guys are doing. Such a sad world....full of these idiots.

  • wow i cant balive these assholes are trying to say that video games are bad for the mind well ive been playing them for more then 10 years theyve made me a calm and peacefull person olso they somtimes help me get my anger out but if they DO stop them imegine how many angry letters theyll get from millions of gamers from around the world =D

  • gta the movie?! what kinda moron thought of this and said: "this is going to be a good movie" WRONG look at resident evil then look at the game

  • um.....you realize GTA is nothing like resident evil right? Even if a great movie was made gamers would hate it and claim that it ruined the game.

  • hmmmm... i wonder how katie couric or matt lauer would feel if they got a chance to ACTUALLY PLAY GTA 4 AND NOT JUST READ SOME BULLSHIT HANDED TO THEM ON A SCRIPT???????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Fook of ye fukin cunt

    gamers are the peacefull people in the world, considering they rarely venture outside

  • Ok man calm down,they are not reporting that gamers are violent from video games.However you make that perspective look like it could influence a bad report on gaming...I am a gamer my self and yes i am peaceful.

  • what did she say that was so offensive? are you a fucking idiot? you wonder why people think gamers are violent when you talk like that about something as small as this.

  • you said that right.

  • @Numenorean921

    Haha great comment. Gamer 4 Life !

  • its a video game.

  • lol movie based games are always shit =]

  • Grand Theft Auto IV isn't bad. It doesn't turn anyone into a serial killer, car thief, etc. It's fun to play, it doesn't teach you anything.

  • I'm ecstatic to play that masterpiece.

    Better to just push buttons and curse in the privacy of your own home, than do anything at all like in the video games.

  • Movies based on video games, and vice versa, Have almost never been worth it.

    The only game i ever played that was based on a film, that I feel was one of the best of the year,

    was The Chronicles of Riddick: escape From Butcher Bay.

    Most games based on films are at least allright, such as the harry potter series,

    But films based on games have a much worse track record.

    The film Doom totally slaughtered the game Doom 3. It shouldnt even be associated wit the name.

  • i wouldnt have the balls to do half the stuff in that game! cmon!

  • do you people just bitch without watching videos now? It was very non biased and well done. The news has changed (except fox news) try to not be so fucking biased. You fucking morons are making all of us gamers look bad.

  • dont buy games download them

  • That's illegal

  • GTA IV ROCKS!

  • i love playing grand theft auto 4! and not because of the violence and sex. but because of the physics, the real life NPC's and most of all the in depth story! i acutely feel kinda bad when i kill la pedestrian : (

  • real life NPCs? talk about exaggerating.

  • You don't enjoy the video game then don't buy it. Don't enjoy a movie don't watch it. Hate whats on tv turn it off. Simple.

  • the problem is not them disliking it. They are afraid it will harm children. Its bs but its understandable to take it seriously.

  • lmao burst out laughing at ''picking up strange women'' what a douche, bet all women are strange to him

  • GTA is the reliaty life of a criminal.I believe its a great game.I think that because it shows what can happen when you go in debt to the mob,steal,or kill.You get a shitload of people out their to get you.Overall great game.Plus these news people dont even know anything about video games!They say games promote violence.LOOK AT YOURSELF.EVERY DAY YOU PUT DEATH KILLING RAPE ON YOUR NEWS AND THEN BLAME A GAME!cbs AND fox R JUST IGNORANT HYPOCRITS!

  • GTA is not the "Reliaty life of a criminal" and if you really like the game because it shows what happens when you steal money than your one pathetic bastard but i know your lieing. You like the game because its fun but your trying to make it look like its a lesson for kids to play it. The truth is the game will not corrupt kids but it will not teach them anything either like your trying to imply. support games but not with lies.

  • I'm a democrat,...well sort of a moderate, well we all know what Hillary Clinton was trying to do during that "Hot Coffie" mod she was trying to get rid of videogame companies all together I also herd that she wanted SSB Brawl to be rated M , fuckin bullshit! its a nintendo Game theres no blood or sexual content for the exeption of zero suit Samus gggrowwll

  • yes i want to spend more time with characters like those!!!!!!!

  • wtf??? michelle is your grlfriend not a strange woman such idiots dont kno wat the game has and jus say anything

  • In 2009, Video Games will surpass Movies as the most expensive medium of entertainment (Cough) Tekken 6 (Cough).

  • Lmao picking up strange women I love how the news blames vicolence in video games for crimes if you don't want ur kids to play it don't fucking buy it for them

  • ya exactly you have a good point Anarcho134.

  • 1 ESRB sucks i want to burn them to the ground, and 2 they only exploit the worst parts of the game not showing that you can just freeley drive around and play mini games

  • 1 is true

    2 is also true but there is still the temptation of doing every thing theys said in the video

    and a new number 3 fuck them micelle is your girl friend not a strange woman

  • Movies and video games will NEVER be a good mix. They are two completly different mediums, and can't transition. The only way it could possibly "benefit" consumers is by giving cheap stepparents and clueless seniors terrible, bargain bin gifts.

  • if violent video games really made people violent than how come you don't see any hard core gamers in prison

  • they are to busy saving the world from the covenant, locust, and all them damn terrorist

    THATS THE AMERICAN WAY

  • WHY the fuck do u belive theres SEX in this game? have ya ever seen someone NAKED? no it just lookz like the hooker is rubbing her face onto his stumach!.. I'm 13 and fuck yeah! i will play whatevah i want :D

  • fuck it ill still play love can cant stop loveing it

  • i have played every fucking game known to man from MManhunt 2 to fucking chiller for thte nes and although games like gta and Manhunt are violent i just do not understand the big deal. u show one fucking boob or somethin in a fucking game and its the end of the world but violense is fine. all the fuss in gta is from the hookers and not the violense. they just used the violense to back it up!

  • one, lets spell check please, 2 It has been scientifically proven that the playing of violently video games does increase the amygdala, the part of the brain that controls emotion, and also a corresponding decrease of activity in brain areas involved in self-control, inhibition and attention. so yeah, research please.

  • WHAT! Picking up strange women? THAT IS HIS GIRLFRIEND!

  • Will CBS FUCK OFF??? Hollywood and the media want to make a lot of cash from selling stuff like GTA, movies, etc. But on the other side, the media wants to make more money by knocking this stuff to get extra ratings because anal retentive, "concerned parents" are worried about the video games their kids play. Shit, in real life people are dealing drugs, prostituting, robbing, stealing, killing, murdering, and worse and they're WORRIED ABOUT FUCKING VIDEO GAMES????

  • You don't want them to play in the streets because you make it unsafe, then want to take away any type of entertainment they have left to occupy themselves while imprisoned at home. What do you expect kids to play with if you take away their preferred entertainment?  Themselves? Oh, that's right. You don't want them to have premarital sex, you brainwash them on "Abstinence Only" programs and condemn masterbation as alternatives to prevent STD transmission, premarital sex, and kids born

  • out of wedlock/ teen moms, or unwanted babies. LEAVE THE KIDS AND VIDEO GAMES THE FUCK ALONE!

  • And i thought that Fox News were the fools.

  • your right, but let's just say the whol news media that isn't about video games like fox cbs cnn etc . . . they suck. . .

  • What there saying about hollywood and video games is completely mislead have you ever played more than 1 movie video game that was good?

  • Ya know...this news report was actually pretty fair, it stated the facts, and didnt jump to conclusions, fine reporting CBS

  • the only question i have for this: SO?!

    its just a game

    get over it!

  • thsis stupid NEWS only makes free advertising  for them who agrees (there is no bad publicity

    )

  • halpin maybe im related to that guy

  • gta 4 is the reason why i killed my family.

  • oh noez jack thompson was right!! lol

  • you suck!

  • lol i'm kidding you know i love gta 4.ROFL!!!!!!

  • i killed 12 kids but then i found jesus. jk jk

  • why is everyone picking on GTA IV, what about the other GTA games, i dont see any of THEM on the news

  • actually back in 1999 gta 3 got lots of news coverage for the same reason and lets not forget hot coffee.

  • "Characters like these"

    I love it; they neglected to say that Niko Bellic actually doesn't want to kill people... He came to America to get away from that life.

    Or the fact that he actually SAVES people's lives in the game...

  • I was having sex with my girlfriend instead of waiting for fucking video game in the fucking rain like the rest of the losers. fun game though

  • yes the games make me want to take drugs!!!! and kill people!

  • Yes, I blame all of my problems on GTA - thats where it all started *sobs!*

  • whoever is demonstrating the gameplay is just goin crazy and killing everyone in the game. Or maybe that's all that was highlighted in the story, but this isn't even the most violent gta of the series. There are'nt any decapitations or swords like the older ones. if anything, the creators have recognized that there is an immorality limit in the public eye when there are realistic graphics, so they can't subject people to photo realistic murder, eventhough it's in the movies all of the time.

  • (on the screen) NIKO: Maybe we could kiss. MICHELLE: OK!

    (the narrarator) Picking up strange women.

    LOLWUT

  • yah he dont pick her up he dont walk up to her and say lets go on a date i dont know ur name buts lets go nope that is just it the news dont know what there talking about they dont play the games they just set there and say omg it is just like real life that game shouldnt be sold in stores cause he has a girlfriend in the game but she is a strange woman.........WTF

  • thats asuming u want to spend more time with characters like these *jacks someones car*......hell yea i wanna spend more time with characters like those =D

  • War on Drugs!

    War on Terror!

    War on Evil Games!

  • 1) The point of the game is not to go killing random people. If the media would show people just playing through missions instead of killing everyone there would be less violence.

    2) It is rated mature for a reason you stupid parents.

    3) The real world is just as violent and sleazy if not more than the game.

    4) If people are this angry about GTA why don't they rant about other games like the Bourne games, Halo, Hitman, James Bond or other games with weapons in them?

    People are ignorant.

  • But I thought the real world is violent because of this kind of stuff, but I pretty much agree with you.

  • you know what lady go bone your dad and suck his tiny harry saggy smelly disgusting dirty rotten deformed balls

  • it says tht at like 1:04 btw

  • hahahahahahahahahahahahaahahah­ahahaha they dont even know anything about the game they calle dit the 4 th edition of gta series acutally its like the ninth dumbasses

    gta 1...gta2...gta3...gta vice city...gta san andreas...gta liberty city stories...gta vice city stories...gta advandced and finally gta4

  • gta1...gta london 1969...gta2...gta3...gta vice city...gta advanced...gta san andreas...gta liberty city stories...gta vice city stories...gta4comment to maroxide08

  • dont forget gta london 1961 as a add-on pack for gta 1.

  • District of Columbia

    Columbia broadcasting system

    FACI on the dime, fasci in our governments buildings. FASCi-FASCISM.

  • wellcomeoooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooo

  • das opfr spielt das doch selber und dazu noch sehr sehr schlecht sollen die rockstar doch den erfolg gönnen das spiel os ja schön ab18 was soll denn noch alles sein !!!!!!!!!!!ß??????

  • Rockstar shouldnt listen to any of this bullshit, grand theft auto series are the sikkest games that have been created

  • fuck the media grand theft auto is not about violence! its a whole experience now!

  • That's what the story said. Did you even watch it?

  • gta is the shiznit. game of the year easily.

  • Katie Couric won't be around for much longer unless CBS wants their ratings to go even deeper into the crapper. And meeting strange women? Isn't that what you do to find a partner?

  • Yeah, super hero games are typically done in a sucky way, yet, crime games receive the prime treatment... if there's a push, there's always a pusher...

  • Only expected, the media hates GTA and gaming in general, don't watch CBS unless you want to see BS. There are many studies showing how in-game violence relates to out of game violence, but that's only because the Media wants it to be bad. Parents, i'm not recommending you buy this game for your child, but consider, are you scared your son or daughter will not see the difference between a game and reality, maybe YOUR the one that has to wake up.

  • not all of them, CNN has something called "Get your game on" which give video game a positive light, they talk about video game and they have Adam Sessler from G4TV as a guess sometime. if you want good news on video game, CNN is the only good news I watch.

  • hahahahaha just played it today it wasn't nearly as bad as the other ones not a lot of guns mostly physically fighting, and when the cops stop you now you can just go over easy or you can run actually fighting them is a bad idea

  • i got GTA when i was 10 :o

  • can 14 teen year kid play it i played all the gta so will be able to play 4

  • This only helps GTA's sales lol

  • It's funny how sales in the video game market have been increasing exponentially over the last decade. Youth violence has also been decreasing over that same time-span...if games really caused real-life violence, wouldn't youth violence be increasing? Ha.

  • damn... come down. ITS JUST A GAME! Censoring are dumb, everyone get it when they want to

  • The fact is that Rockstar Entertainment tries to make the games as realistic as possible. Can anyone go out and punch another human being? Of course, but you choose not to. That's what the game is all about, free will. You could play through the game and do a minimal amount of killing, but a bit...just because the story is about a gangster.

  • GTA is amazing.

    And sure there's sex and violence, but the game is about the extremely realistic gameplay, not the bad themes that are there.

  • GTA is good

  • indubitably.

  • not its not it got 10 out of 10 in ratings. yeah its bad inside the game but it aint gonna do nothing to the being playing it. if somebody plays gta n then goes kill som1 it probably means that they were already fucked up

  • yah ur rite
