Rockstar Games co-founder Dan Houser has admitted that he "constantly" worried that the studio might get shut down after Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas' infamous Hot Coffee controversy.
For as long as Grand Theft Auto has been around, it's been involved in some massive controversies. From Jack Thompson rallying against GTA 4 to Lindsay Lohan suing Rockstar over a character resembling her in GTA 5, the series is never far from getting into some kind of trouble. Without a doubt, though, the biggest controversy is San Andreas' Hot Coffee mod.
For those who need a reminder, Hot Coffee was a minigame that was planned to be included in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas which basically let you play out a sex scene. It was removed from the final version of the game, but modders found the code for it and got it working, leading to massive legal issues and an Adults Only rating for the game from the ESRB.
The drama surrounding the Hot Coffee mod was even a major part of the docuseries film based on Rockstar called The Gamechangers.
To this day, the Hot Coffee minigame remains one of the biggest controversies that Rockstar has ever gotten...
