Nope. The game is too obviously a game for me to feel bad about it. The world betrays its 'reality' when I go barreling down the freeway with passengers in my car, run over 15 people and slam into 5 cars and no body says word one.

It's the uncanny valley in a different way. The closer that Rockstar gets to creating New York, the more and more unrealistic it becomes for each increasingly small detail they miss.

So I don't feel bad.

The worst I've actually felt for something I've ever done was in Knights of the Old Republic. Let me first say I was going 'hard-core' Dark Side. This woman had a skull of a sand dragon from her dead husband. Her husband had died on the hunt leaving her and their three children destitute. They had no money, but the skull was worth several thousand dollars. However, only men could sell dragon skulls on this world so she asked me to sell it for her and she'd split the money with me. I sold it and came back with the money. When she asked for it. I said 'no' and walked off as she collapsed and wept in great heaves and sobs.

I felt horrible after that, even if it was only a game.
