Like that kid in school who would always cause trouble yet never get caught, you have to admire Rockstar and their incredibly apt choice of name. Easily the most rock 'n' roll games developer out there right now, their games inspire controversy and mischief on a daily basis. Two of their most well-known series' - Grand Theft Auto and Manhunt - are well known in the public for their crimes against decency, but their penchant for causing trouble can be seen in their less notorious work too. Bully, for example, caused a huge stir prior to its release simply due to the name of the game. Even their entry in the Max Payne series or that of the Midnight Club titles (which have never really caused huge bouts of controversy) feature or encourage highly illegal activities - it's safe to say that Rockstar aren't afraid of continually rocking the boat. Some illegal activities are featured so constantly in Rockstar's games now that they're not even shocking anymore. Killing a prostitute might as well be a side-mission in Grand Theft Auto and abusing your lasso to hogtie some innocent people in the dusty towns of Red Dead became second nature to some. This article explores some of the darker recesses of Rockstar's games; moments where we as gamers can perform acts or feats that would have us locked up faster than you can say "Trevor Philips". This article also seeks to highlight just a handful of the controversies caused by Rockstar's games, as documenting every single one would be a near impossible feat. So brace yourself; we're about to take a walk on the wild side.
