Did your parents let you play it as a kid?
>>11984982no but I played it at my cousins and friends house. By the time SA came out I could play without getting bothered
>>11984982I'm so glad the guy at GameStop was cool and didn't say anything when I had my mom buy me this game.
>>11984982Yes i remember the day it came out. I was 12. I was ultra hyped, reading about it every day. Scouring the internet for a new screenshot or feature the game would have. My mom got off work at 4pm and got me Subway and I played it all night. When I woke up in the morning my mom told me she called school and told them I was sick and I stayed home and played it all day and night again. I was obsessed with that game, I played it for years. This repeated with Vice City and San Andreas
Yeah they didn't give a fuck
>>11984982I was 18 and just got out of basic training when they came out zoomy
>>11984982I was 13 and they didn’t need to know. Just download the cracked version on Kazaa. I had a Radeon 9700 and 512 megabytes of ram it ran great.
>>11984982Yeah but I was a teenager. My mom watched me play Vice City and didn't object/liked the music and setting since she's from Florida. When San Andreas came out and everyone was calling it a rape and murder simulator or whatever she asked me about it and I just said "no, it's not like that at all" and that was that.
>>11984982My cousin convinced my aunt to rent it from Hollywood Video/GameCrazy when I was 8 or 9, he was a year older than me. We played it for about 3 hours til she walked in and figured out what it was, she immediately went to return it. This was also not allowed at my house. However, a boy across the street (whom I didn't really like) had Vice City. We played it a bit one time, just using cheats from a cheatbook I had to spawn tanks and shit. I wasn't allowed to play GTA until 4 came out, but I found my ways
No but I did anyways
>>11984982No because it had blood. If it has no blood they wouldn't give a shit. Gore and horror are the only things my family censored.
>>11984982they said no at first but bought it for my birthday. I took it to a friends house and his parents did not like it at all
>>11985229and then everyone stood up and clapped
>>11985287based and same
>>11984982No. My parents were a bit tyrannical and dad was living through his PC gamer phase then, so he was well aware about game's contents. GTA 1 and 2 were OK as they were abstract enough and did not feature sexual imagery, but 3D entries were heavily discouraged, which I obeyed.
>>11984982I played GTA1 and they didnt have a clue what was going on. My mother sat me down and said "there is such a thing called HARD PORN on the internet I hope you never search it" year was like 1996 and I had already been on it for years
yes, at like 7 years old. been a gta fan ever since. vice city was the first game i bought with my own money. it wasn't even the first m-rated game i played; that was house of the dead 2 for dreamcastin hindsight my grandfather was so based for not giving a shit. claude's sniping people on the street on the back cover for fuck's sake
My parents let me play Conker: Live and Reloaded.
>>11984982I was 23 when this game came out
>>11984982If my mum or dad were around I’d just drive around like a good Samaritan.
>>11985335My mom let me play mk3 when I was 5, sorry you had gay but loving parents.
>>11984982>Did your parents let you play it as a kid?Yes and I played it with my little cousin as well. I would tell him to stop crushing pedestrians, but it was hopeless.He is now a successful soccer player with a hot girlfriend.
i've never even heard of anyone (around school, mall, etc) being unable to play a game because of their parents not liking the rating. store clerks barely gave a shit. i think video games were still seen as toys until around gen6
i was 16
>>11985918nta but lmao whats wrong with you, that was pretty much the standard experience back then. If thats too hard to believe for you there really is no joy whatsoever in your life
>>11986728>standard experience back thenIf your parents were poor or brown. By the 6th generation white and middle class parents were completely aware of game ratings and didn't let their preteen children play M rated games. Unless of course they were poor or brown.
>>11986926you're coping. my family had a lot of money, but my mom grew up in a tough neighborhood. she knew being around molesters and psychopaths was dangerous, not heckin' vidya. kek she did say one or two times, "i dont think you should be playing that..." but said fuck it. for all her problems, mum was based for letting me play all the vidya I wanted. and guess what, no criminal record on my end. overprotective parents are faggots.
>>11984982Yeah but i think they knew I was too dumb to understand the story and just wanted to steal cars and kill people
>>11984982Yeah, they didn't care. I was watching R rated movies as a 6 year old
I was 20.Speaking of, they didn't care when I was 13 and played Carmageddon.
>>11987294Okay so you're poor/brown but with upward mobility, got it.
>>11987351Literal child abuse. You should be ashamed about this, not brag about it.
>>11984982I remember going to the Virgin Megastore to get GTA1 for PS1 and the cashier was more than eager to get the sale and told my mother "it's mainly just a driving game really" I was maybe 9/10 ? Had no issue getting any of the GTA games ever cos my parents were just clueless when it came to vidya
No my parents said it was unchristian and took it to the church to have the pastor destroy itI was 23 at the time
>>11987639why should he be ashamed of being a victim? are you retarded?
>>11984982I remember watching my dad play Vice City when I was like 4. The first GTA I beat as a kid was SA
my older brother had gta 2 on pc and bought 3 when it came out so I played it without my mom knowing. I did buy Vice City myself for my ps2, I was 10 and I didnt have enough money for a new copy so I bought it used on a trip to the mall with mom and brother. My mom didnt mind me buying the game but both her and my brother told me I was going to get scammed and the game wasnt going to work, I remember being super scared of buying used games for a long while because of that. The disc still works today.
>>11987636Nta but my family is middle class white and I grew up playing rated M games and watching R rated movies. It was a great time, too bad your parents sucked and now you are seething
>>11986037>I was 23 when this game came outI was 21, and my dad, who had never played a video game before in his life, almost pissed himself laughing when he accidentally stole a cop car and got chased by the cops.
My gamecube didn’t let me play this game
>>11989907If the CHADcube had GTA, it would've sold at least 10 million units extra.
>>11987639Ok moralfag.
>>11984982My parents didn't give a fuck about me playing III or VC, but they drew the line at SA.
>>11984982I was 21 when GTA3 came out but they let me play Mortal Kombat when i was 13
>>11984982Yes, gta iii and war of the monsters were my first 2 games for PS2. I remember my mom gave me a pack of ciggs each day when I was 14 years old.
how would parents care at all? >Son/Daughter I forbid you to play that game!would not work anyways
>>11992519You and I had very different childhoods lol
>>11984982>Did your parents let you play it as a kid?You just unlocked a memory for me with this post. When I was in elementary school there was this gigantic pussy named Chris who was, for lack of a better term, a straight-edge goody-two-shoes little bitch (politically correct definition: smugly or overly well-behaved).He was telling me how he couldn't play T or M rated games only E for everyone and I was like wtf no way not even T for teens? And he proudly told me how his mom will eventually let him play T rated games when he turned 13 and that shit felt so far away at the time. Meanwhile I'm over here shooting hookers and taking their wads of cash. His mom actually worked at the school as a substitute teacher. He often wore this bright red sweater and he was very religious for someone in 4th grade. Chris, if you're reading this, I hope you turned out OK and didn't grow up to be a sheltered pussy.
yes but they did not let me watch south park
>>11984982My very catholic mom was a TV nazi. Wasn't allowed to watch anything with too much violence or swearing, or whatever she considered "weird". She seriously thought watching people do bad things in movies was a sin.She saw my cousins playing goldeneye and was like "there are games where you SHOOT people??!" and wouldn't let me get any 3d consoles until the wii came out. The GTA games were never on the table.
>>11991972kek, based nigger hating parents. not even real gta anyway. just a proto saints row nigga simulator
>>11992982But, Anon, I'm black.
>>11992875Maybe he's well-adjusted enough to not be a regular on a Japanese cartoon porn forum
>>11992895I hope she never saw you playing No More Heroes or Mad World
>>11986926Not me, but I had a friend who's mother let him take off a few days of middle school to play GTAIV. Couldnt fucking believe it, but my parents are workaholics. I'm white myself but this guy was paler than even I. You uh, you've got some problems to work out, anon...
>>11993169>I'm black.Parent, then.
>>11985289Damn dude how much cum was your wife full of during service?
>>11992875Chris sounds like he has a house and two kids now.
>>11984982My parents were divorced, my mother no she won't let me, while my father yes, but on the supervision of my brother (that watched me like for 3 minutes then he would go out smoke a joint). I was 10 the first time I played it, my brother was 16
>>11992519>Son/Daughter I forbid you to play that game!>would not work anywaysWhy wouldn't it work?
>>11986542Pretty much, every kid in my school got San Andreas
>>11989804You lived in a trailer park or are lying about being white. I had a blast playing M rated games and watching R rated movies at my poor white and brown/black friend's houses. But every single rich or middle class white family didn't play that way AT ALL.You're clearly a larping zoomer.
>>11989907You had true crime.>>11994516>P-Poor!>B-Brown!>Z-Zoomer!>E-Every well off white family are little bitches like the sitcomsEither a larping brownoid or your parents sodomized you as a baby.
>>11994516You're not even American and you are trying too hard to sound like you know something about a thing or two. I had friends who were rich and were allowed to watched r rated shit and I had poor friends who were not allowed to watch r rated movies. You can't just put blanket statements on everything like a midwit Jew puppet. Come on Sanjay, I thought you guys were smarter than that?
my dad brought our first pc home and shown me this when i was 3
>>11989856Based dad having an open mind. I could never get my dad to try anything new. And now he's dead so he never will.
I could fly the dodo no problem. Some people just suck at controlling aircraft.
>>11995046dodo was so much more satisfying than being a super nig and manning f16s
