In Grand Theft Auto Women are represented as the weaker sex and the women don't cause any violence which may be the reason why women aren't affected and don't come up in the media as much as males.  In the game males are represented as the strong sex and this is why many young teenagers copy their hero's in real life because of all the problems that they cause in the game and the people who play the game want to do what they do in real life. this could be a major factor in why violence has increased due to video games.  In the media it is accurate that the male is the more dominate that is the dominate reading in Grand theft Auto. 

In Grand theft Auto the video many different types of people are being represented. One thing that is being represented is the country America and the representation in the game just gives the country bad publicity as there always news about people robbing banks, killing people etc. and this something that the County America doesn't want to be associated with as these are serious crimes. Prostitutes in this game have such a bad representation that they have had protests to ban the game overall. 

From this you could connote that they're very bad people in the USA as some of things that happen in this game are based on real life. It gives a bad reputation of the people in America as they love drugs and love to pay prostitutes and plan to cause problems in society.  You could say that the rock star production have created the black person as the villain who is harming society and all the gangs in the game contain black people and these people are always creating a new equilibrium and the police contain white people restore peace in the community. 

The target audience for this game are teenagers over 17 as the restriction for the game is M which is for mature audience which is over the age of 17, however I believe that the industry promote this game towards parents of younger children. The facts are that they the game comes out on a Friday and all the special offers are on at supermarkets including ASDA and sainsbury and this is the day where parents do their house shopping and their children create the buzz about the game so in the end the parents will buy the game as it be's at a very cheap price. It's almost like the tobacco industry. On the box it says it's for people over the age of 18 but these bosses promote towards younger people. This links to increase in violence as the games contains more violence and children get addicted and want to try what the characters do in real life.I believe that the industry target the class A,B and C because most parents come into these categories and they want the parents to buy the product for their Kids. This is also targeted at D as these are students.
