Abstract
Released way back in 2009, Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars is an action-adventure videogame, developed for a console meant for teenagers. However, the videogame drew flak for its inclusion of certain controversial mini-games and missions involving drugs like cocaine and heroin. This short essay/review will focus on the corruptive influence of something as trivial as a videogame and how it works insidiously as a lure to a world of crime, which young minds find irresistible.
