The fallout from the infamous "Hot Coffee" scandal isn't over yet. Take-Two Interactive announced late yesterday that it had received grand jury subpeonas over the hidden sex games found in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
Another strike against Grand Theft Auto?
The subpoenas, issued by New York's district attorney, request information from Take-Two Interactive regarding the Hot Coffee sexual content included in GTA: San Andreas. According to Take-Two, the subpoenas request any documents or disclosures concerning "the knowledge of the Company's officers and directors regarding the creation, inclusion and programming of hidden scenes (commonly referred to as "Hot Coffee") in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas."
In a statement, Take-Two said that it "has not been advised that it or any specific individual is presently a target of the investigation." The statement stressed that the company was cooperating by handing over all requested documents.
That hasn't helped Take-Two's stock prices, though, which drooped to $10.30 per share in response to the news.
