Rated E For Everyone

The only problem with trying to parody games like Grand Theft Auto and Postal is that they already exist as parodies of themselves. But anything that brings attention to how stupid* they are is all right by me.

*Note: Grand Theft Auto III (and especially the expansion packs-- er, sequels) are brilliantly-concieved moneymaking entertainment products. I simply do not think they are very good games, and I consider them to be emblematic of how irresponsible and lazy the game industry has become. And I'm certainly not saying games shouldn't be stupid; some of my favorite games are.

Oh. I guess I should have thought of that possibility; it's a segment from "Robot Chicken." Stop-motion animation "ad" for a GTA-style game... "Urinate on the homeless! Kick a puppy! Bonus points for killing family members!"... that sort of thing.
