3. Small Town Alabama
Manage episode 348304468 series 3418695
With each new GTA, a new world to live in. This time, its Vice City, a fictionalised Miami, in which drugs, guns and killing are the order of the day.
As players stole cars and worked their way up the crime ladder, a soundtrack full of 80s classics brought them into a gaming dream.
Bugzy remembers how the vision of style in the game spoke to him: how the suave and well-dressed criminals and characters were something he found compelling.
The game had already shocked moral America. But it had also shocked one lawyer, who was gearing up for a fight of his own.
That lawyer would try to connect GTA to real world violence through the media when a teenager killed three in Alabama, but his attempts would be dashed when the supposed link was thrown out of court.
WARNING: This podcast contains descriptions violence and some distressing scenes.
