And it appears GTA V makes fun of both political parties

Grand Theft Auto has been a guilty pleasure of mine ever since the PS2 version of GTA:San Andreas. The political and pop culture satire is so entertaining to me, and for me this game since San Andreas has encapsulated eras of America that should be laughed at and not forgotten.

Politically Grand Theft Auto's San Andreas touched on Iran-Contra, GTA:IV involved mocking Jingoism, Xenophobia, and propaganda of a never ending War on Terror. GTAV so far has signs of tackling subjects resembling the Tea Party and the Housing bust, Im so excited to get my hands on this game based on its political content.

Videogames aren't really my thing, but my girlfriend lives for them. But I do appreciate the narrative.
