In this open-world action game, players assume the roles of three criminals whose storylines intersect within the fictional city of Los Santos. Players can switch between each character to follow his storyline, completing missions which often include criminal activities (e.g., stealing cars, executing heists, assassinating targets). Players mostly use pistols, machine guns, sniper rifles, and explosives to kill various enemies (e.g., rival gang members); players also have the ability to attack/kill non-adversary civilians, though this may negatively affect players' progress as a penalty system triggers a broad police search. Blood-splatter effects occur frequently, and the game contains rare depictions of dismemberment. In one sequence, players are directed to use various instruments and means (e.g., pipe wrench, tooth removal, electrocution) to extract information from a character; the sequence is intense and prolonged, and involves some player interaction (i.e., responding to on-screen prompts). The game includes depictions of sexual material/activity: implied fellatio and masturbation; various sex acts (sometimes from a close-up or first-person perspective) that the player procures from a prostitute—while no nudity is depicted in these sequences, various sexual moaning sounds can be heard. Nudity is present, however, in other settings (e.g., a topless lap dance in a strip club; a man with exposed genitalia in a non-sexual context). Within the game, some cutscenes, TV programs, and radio ads contain instances of mature humor: myriad sex jokes; depictions of raw sewage and feces on a worker's body; caricatures of ethnic/racial groups. Some sequences within the larger game allow players' character to use drugs (e.g., smoking from a bong, lighting a marijuana joint, hallucinating from peyote); cocaine use is also depicted. Players' character can, at various times, consume alcohol and drive while under the influence. The words “f**k,” “c*nt,” and “n*gger” can be heard in the dialogue.

This is an action-adventure game in which players assume the role of a former gang member (Carl “C.J.” Johnson) drawn back into a life of crime after returning home. From a third-person perspective, players explore open-world environments while engaging in criminal activities (e.g., assassinations, drive-by shootings, drug trafficking) for gang members and corrupt cops. Players use machine guns, pistols, rifles, shotguns, and melee weapons (e.g., knives, bats, chainsaws) to kill various rivals and gang members. Battles can be frenetic, highlighted by realistic gunfire, explosions, and blood-splatter effects. Blood can also be seen pooling underneath bodies after injury/death, and some weapon attacks result in decapitation. Players have the ability to run over/attack civilians, though such action results in police pursuit, as players' wanted level increases. The game contains some sexual material: a strip club depicting private lap dances; picking up prostitutes and driving them to secluded locations for sexual activity (e.g., players' vehicle is depicted rocking from side to side); a woman performing fellatio on a character in the background (the brief act is partially obscured, with no nudity). A handful of cutscenes depict characters smoking from bongs or marijuana cigarettes; one sequence depicts a crack house/den with several occupants that appear to be high. The words “f**k,” n**ger,” and “c*nt” appear in the dialogue.

This is an action-adventure game in which players assume the role of an ex-convict (Tommy Vercetti) sent to establish a drug trade in the fictional Vice City. From a third-person perspective, players explore open-world environments while engaging in criminal activities (e.g., assassinations, drug dealing/trafficking, hijacking vehicles) for underworld figures. Players use machine guns, rifles, shotguns, and melee weapons (e.g., swords, bats, chainsaws) to kill various rivals and gang members. Battles are sometimes frenetic, accompanied by realistic gunfire, large explosions, and cries of pain. Blood-splatter effects occur during combat and can pool underneath bodies. Several weapon attacks result in decapitation and blood splatter; one cutscene depicts a character's arm blown off by explosives. Players have the ability to shoot or run over civilians, though such action results in police pursuit, as players' wanted level increases. The game contains some sexual material: a strip club depicting private lap dances; picking up prostitutes and driving them to secluded locations for sexual activity (e.g., players' vehicle is depicted rocking from side to side); a pornographic actress moaning and gyrating in the foreground—it is implied that she is filming a sex scene, though only her shoulders and head are visible. The game also includes missions in which players must procure and/or sell drugs; one sequence depicts a man snorting a line on a table. The words “sh*t,” “a*shole,” and “p*ssy” appear in the dialogue, and accompanying songs contain additional language (e.g., “That man could give a f**k”; “And all my n*ggas told me that I was on one").

This is an action game in which players assume the role of an escaped criminal working in the violent underworld of fictional Liberty City.

Some missions involve transporting drugs or beating up drug dealers; drug packages are also depicted in some locations.

This is an "open-world" action game in which players choose from two distinct storylines: The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony. In The Lost and Damned, players assume the role of Johnny Klebitz, a member of the Lost motorcycle gang; in The Ballad of Gay Tony, players control Luis Lopez, the body guard and assistant to night club owner "Gay Tony" Prince. Set in the world of Grand Theft Auto IV, the game depicts a vast urban landscape which includes a criminal underworld that the protagonist must navigate through in order to progress. Players complete various missions that either advance the main storyline or award the player with in-game currency and connections.

Many of the missions require players to engage in criminal activity: stealing cars, robbing banks, taking out drug addicts (beating them with a baseball bat or shooting them), running drugs and guns, and killing rival gang members. Players use pistols, machine guns, baseball bats, Molotov cocktails, and grenades to kill enemies and occasionally civilians. Blood often spurts out of injured characters, stains the walls/ground, and occasionally sprays onto the screen. In one sequence, a decapitated head—the camera lingers on the bloody image for a few seconds—is found inside a box. Within the free-roaming context (i.e., not missions), players have the ability to attack police officers and pedestrians on the streets, in subway stations, etc; however, a "Wanted Level"-penalty system discourages these acts by triggering a broad police search.

During the course of the game, players can encounter some sexually suggestive material: strip clubs with lap dancers wearing "pasties"; sex shops that contain phallic toys; and suggestive TV ads that parody video games, anime, and reality TV shows. During a cutscene in The Lost and Damned, the central character encounters a man just after he has received a full-body massage; as their conversation ends, there is a brief depiction of full-frontal nudity. Players are able to pick up prostitutes for certain "services" (e.g., masturbation, fellatio, intercourse) during the game: the sexual acts are not graphically depicted—they occur off-camera with characters fully clothed. The most pertinent instances of sexual content occur in the episode The Ballad of Gay Tony. While there is no nudity depicted during these brief sequences, the sexual acts are strongly implied: the central character grinds against a woman's posterior (four-to-five seconds) while the two are fully clothed; a female character performs fellatio on the central character as he sits on a chair—the camera fixes on the woman's bobbing head from behind.

Alcohol and drug use are also depicted in the game. In a "Champagne drink-off" mini-game, players compete with another character to see who can drink a full bottle of champagne faster; when players visit a bar, they can take shots of liquor until they are drunk—if the central character drinks the champagne too fast or drinks too many shots, he will vomit and pass out. Although the protagonist is never depicted using drugs, a few ancillary characters sometimes can be seen smoking marijuana or snorting cocaine. Strong profanity (e.g., "f**k," "sh*t," and "c*nt") and racial epithets (e.g., "n**ger," "sp*c," and "sl*pes") can be heard during gameplay and particularly during cutscenes.
