Rumors about Rockstar using Grand Theft Auto IV as a weapon in the war against Hillary Clinton

It's a known fact that the relations between Hillary Clinton and Rockstar Games "ain't" the best. Actually, some might think that there's no way they could get worse, but, if some (very hard to believe) rumors are true, GTA IV will come dropping bombs and seeking a little bit of revenge over Hillary Clinton: it is said that a blog posted press release by Rockstar announced that all the prostitutes in the next installment of the Grand Theft Auto franchise will look like Hillary Clinton.

Even though we did our best to find that blog or anything official about this piece of news, we didn't manage to. Still, it's not something to ignore, since blog entries may be deleted anytime, right? So, guess we'll have to take seriouslynews.com's word for it.

It appears that the Hillary lookalike prostitutes will also have some lines to make it crystal clear who GTA IV is screwing with. For example, during intercourse, they will say something like: "Will you still vote for me?" and if you decide to kill one, she will say "Now I'll never get to be president!" If all (or any) of these are true, probably Rockstar will get another lawsuit coming their way, but it wouldn't be the first time something like this happens - take the latest Manhunt 2 release as a solid example.

Even though having prostitutes look like Hillary Clinton would probably not make the game more attractive, election analysts have already started speculations regarding this rumor. And they seem quite unbelievable, too: "This could be the first chance the younger demographic gets to really connect with her" commented one expert, adding "this could give her some street cred".

As you see, things here are very elaborate, so if this proves to be nothing but a very bad joke, somebody must have spent quite some time creating it. Probably Rockstar will comment upon this pretty soon, so we'll keep you updated.
