11. Obsessed With 69?
There's nothing childish about Grand Theft Auto's concept - in fact, it is provocatively anti-childish, and its controversy comes largely because of the way the franchise invites players to enjoy adult activities in a fundamentally child-like way. It's perverse, occasionally puerile, and hugely entertaining, and it's mostly thanks to the commitment to story-telling, the vast open-world and the characters - but then you start to notice the little jokes and nods that add a whole new level, such as Rockstar's apparent obsession with the number 69. It's nice to see the commitment to furthering the school-yard fascination with the number, and its sexy (and logistically quite difficult) implications, peppered throughout the GTA V world, like the graffiti tag on the back of the Vinewood sign, or the fact that the game has 69 main missions. And if you're looking even closer, you might find some tittering in the fact that the Los Santos Country Club has a hole length of 169 yards. This of course all follows on from the presence of Area 69 in San Andreas, which was far less sexy than it initially sounded.
