Even if GTA sex claims are true this will not affect the BBFC classification.

GTA San Andreas was released with a BBFC rating of 18 in the UK, which makes it illegal to sell the game to anyone under the age of 18. This has meant the BBFC do not feel they need to take any action, even if the sex mini game claims are found to be true. Such content would not require the game to be reclassified as it would in other territories where the game had not received a strict adult only rating.

"We were not aware that the hidden content was in the game when we awarded the 18 rating, and our understanding is that Rockstar did not know the content was in the game," a representative of the British Board of Film Classification told GamesIndustry.

"Even if we had been aware of it, we would not have had a problem," continued the rep. "From our point of view the hidden material does not contravene the 18 rating and so the rating stands."

At least us Brits know that the sex scandal will not affect the sale of San Andreas on these shores.
