Take Two had recently been accused of creating highten prejudice against Haitian communities by allowing such story lines in Grand Theft Auto : Vice City as "Kill the Hatians". When this accusation occured, Take Two immediately responded by saying they would remove the reference from all future releases of the game.

Apparently, this was not enough. *"It's too little, too late," said Ringo Cayard of the Haitian American Foundation. "They made the money, the message went through."

*Gepsie Metellus of the Haitian Neighborhood Center in Miami said she would not expect Take-Two to withdraw all copies of the game from the market place, "But I'm certainly hoping they will also edit the lines with respect to other ethnic groups."

*taken from a Yahoo! Fincance article.
