1WAS EXTREMELY disappointed to see in CM an article which describes a number of different computer games on sale this Christmas (CM 18 December). The one I take particular exception to is "Grand Theft Auto Vice City".
I am aware of this game,having a teenage son who wanted my wife to buy it for him. When asked what it was about, being suspicious of the title. I refused permission for him to have it.
In your feature you describe the game. and! quote:"To get to and from your various tasks you're going to need some transport. But there's no mucking about with bank loans in this game simply steal an unattended vehicle or hijack one, throw the driver out and speed off".
In my humble opinion this game should be banned from sale in the UK. as it must influence teenagers and others into thinking that car crime is acceptable. I am sure that the many thousands of people who have been victims of car crime would share my views on this.
I am very surprised that the trade's main quality publication has written about and even endorsed this game with a five-star rating!
