The face that many people of the gaming age are complete homophobes might actually impact sales. Even the logo for the the ballad of gay tony looks gay lol. now im not saying its gonna be a major sales drop, and in fact some might even get it and some might find it funny. but old joe redneck who with a 360 in his trailer ( u know the one on live screaming racist epithets every 30 seconds) is gonna think twice about getting it believe it will cause some people not to buy it. although i dunno if rockstar did this knowing this fact because they got enough from MS to mess around and do w.e. they want with the episodes.

k I'm probably gonna get it so why do I care if less homophobes buy this game based on the title? Less idiots to deal with in the new multiplayer modes if they're basing whether to be it solely on it's name.

No, its just gonna prove the fact that you can call a GTA anything you want, and its still gonna sell like crazy.

psssh, If you won't buy because of the title, then you probably aren't rockstars target audience for GTA anyway. Seriously, if you've played more than a few hours of any GTA, you're probably not going to be offended by "The Ballad of Gay Tony"
