Trivia
The mod mentioned below to enable the sex mini-game, dubbed "Hot Coffee" mod, became the downfall of the PC version.
It sparked a huge controversy where politicians from all corners, including Hilary Clinton, starting bashing onto the ESRB.
Rockstar at first blamed the hackers for inserting the minigame into the code, but
GameSpot later confirmed that the code for the minigame was already in the PS2 version and could be unlocked using hacking tools like Action Replay Max.
Following an investigation, the ESRB re-rated the game from M to AO, Rockstar stopped manufacturing the game immediately and worked on a new version that allegedly removed all traces of the mini-game.
