10 Horrifically Illegal Things You Can Do In Rockstar's Games

4. Torture An Innocent Man

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjlSmCm1K74 As we've already seen, Rockstar isn't afraid to overstep the mark by a mile. In Grand Theft Auto V, Michael, Trevor and Franklin have to deal with a corrupt FIB agent named Steve Haines who seeks to sabotage the International Affairs Agency (a parody of the CIA) to secure more funding for his own department. He makes our trio break into the IAA building to kidnap a terrorist suspect named Ferdinand Karimov before reappearing later to hand Trevor and Michael another mission - turning into GTA V's most controversial so far. It's fair to say that torture is a much debated subject. Rockstar evidently feel strongly about the subject too, which is why GTA V features an un-skippable segment where Trevor tortures Karimov (now referred to as Mr.K) to gather information about another terrorist suspect. There's four different torture methods available, and they're all pretty brutal. You can waterboard Mr. K (this method, more than any other, is probably intended as a dig at the U.S Government), you can take a wrench to his knee, arm or genitals, you can shock him with a car battery or you can extract a tooth from him using pliers. Up to four rounds of torture can be undertaken in this mission (you can simply kill Mr. K to end the mission quicker) but you're forced to at least go through two rounds. Perhaps worst of all, it turns out that Mr. K is actually an innocent man who simply did some home theater work for the terrorist suspect that Haines is searching for. Trevor opts not to kill him at the conclusion of the mission (though this is only because he doesn't like doing what he's told) and instead takes him to the airport and tells him to leave the country. Bit late for the nice guy act though, Trevor. This mission has been widely panned for glorifying torture and utilising it for entertainment purposes; with Rockstar's satirical intentions simply going too far for the majority of players.
