Rockstar was forced to permanently remove this feature and they soon released a non-modifiable 2nd edition of GTA San Andreas, which regained the M rating. This led to the game being pulled from stores across the USA, and re-rated as AO (Adults Only) by the ESRB (already an 18 in the UK). Jack Thompson and other anti-gaming advocates denounced the Hot Coffee mod in the media, as if it were an existing feature of the game that children could easily stumble across.
In the unmodified game, the player takes his girlfriend to her front door and she asks him if he would like to come in for 'some coffee.' He agrees, and the camera stays outside, swaying back and forth a bit, while moaning sounds are heard. The name 'Hot Coffee' refers to the way the released game alludes to the unseen sex scenes. This was made downloadable for the PC in June 2005 and was released for the PS2 and Xbox soon after. Patrick W released a modification (the Hot Coffee mod) to enable it. This was discovered by several modders in 2004. This feature was disabled from the game before release, but not actually removed. After installing the patch/mod, users can enter the protagonist's girlfriends' houses and engage in a crudely rendered, partially clothed sexual intercourse mini-game. In mid-June 2005, a file dubbed Hot Coffee was released that modifies Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
