‘Grand Theft Auto V’ Has A New Gender/Race/Age Bending Glitch

Man, even video game glitches are weirder in Japan. The new Beach Bum Grand Theft Auto V update is having a strange effect on the Japanese version of the game — basically, it causes NPCs from the game to randomly change sex, race and age. So a young woman in a sassy outfit suddenly becomes a grumpy looking old man who’s still totally rocking that sassy outfit.

Of course as a fully enlightened modern human, I don’t really see things like gender, race or age so these pictures mean nothing to me, but perhaps you’ll find them amusing…

Jeez, the ladies of GTAV were kind of a homely bunch even before this glitch, weren’t they? When your face is swapped with an old man’s I shouldn’t be thinking “well, I guess that’s a minor downgrade.” Hey guys at Rockstar — maybe it’s time to try out online dating or something. The fact that all the women in your games look like angry hookers kinda reflects badly on your social lives.
