Microsoft taking a risk with Ballad of **** Tony.

I am surprised MS and Rockstar are releasing this game. I don't have anything against Gay individuals but after they've been forced down our throats in movies, Rockstar has opened a can of worms that can never be closed. Now there will be more of this in our video games. Not sure if this is a good thing. Not something I want in my games. Especially when they are advertising it on TV for the kids to see. I'll bet there will be a boycott on Mircosoft 360 by certain Family Groups out there.

Debate without any bashing please.

If you have problems with homosexuals then just don't buy it.

Closed minds recieve no new information.

Meh. it's just a video game. Nobody takesthat hobbyseriously anyways... :|

Kids still play these games regardless of the restriction! Especially since this one is a downloadable game.

i highly doubt the character Gay Tony (he's the guy you work for in the game) has that nickname simply from being gay we don't know really know anything much about him other then his name (haven't really been keeping up with the development so somebody more knowledgable can correct me.)

if i'm not mistaken, you can set up the 360 with a password so no one can play on the system unless they know it.

I concur!

Really? You're complaining about a gay character in a GTA game? Really? You're cool with the sex, drugs, violence and language, but draw the line at an openly gay character? Really? Really?

This is the first time a same sex preference individual has been featured in a game! I guess I am in the minority on this one.

[QUOTE="KingTuttle"] The hell with ratings. Parents need to actually be ahem...parents...and stop letting 10 year old kids play mature games. Reminds me of when I went to see Watchmen as I saw some guy bring his (had to be 8 or 9 year old) kid in and sit down...smart.KingTuttle

You know 'G@y' is just a nickname, right? Like 'Babyface' or 'Fat'. It dosn't mean Tony is g@y.

Vamp is not the main character he is a supporting character. And it is assumed he is gay.
