No, I didn’t misplace a zero. The simulation racing game that has spanned the ages of video gaming time packs a wallop in the latest installment, Gran Turismo 5. $60 million is a lot of money, especially considering it was spent on a single video game.

Chances are if you are in the mood to play a good Adult Only video game, you’ve already discovered first that no “game store” sells them. Second, you’ll notice that even worse than the lack of physical places to buy them, the list of AO games is incredibly short.
