This feature was disabled from the game before release, but not actually removed. This was discovered by Patrick W in 2004, who created a modification (the ''Hot Coffee mod'') to enable it. This was made downloadable for the [[PC]] in June 2005, and was released for the [[PS2]] and [[Xbox]] soon after.

Much like any GTA related controversy, it was warped by both the media and many anti-gaming advocates, such as [[Jack Thompson]]. This lead to the game being pulled from stores across the [[USA]], and re-rated as AO (Adults Only) by the [[ESRB]] (already an 18 in the [[UK]]). [[Rockstar]] was forced to permanently remove this feature and they soon released a non-moddable 2nd edition of GTASA, which regained the M rating.
[[Jack Thompson]] and other anti-gaming advocates denounced the Hot Coffee mod in the media, as if it were an existing feature of the game that children could easily stumble across.
