However , in 2005 , the Hot Coffee mod was developed for the Microsoft Windows port ofSan Andreas , allowing gamers to lastly get at the unavailable mini - game . Players after establish manner to access Hot Coffee onPlayStation 2and Xbox , despite the miniskirt - game being wholly disabled and not pronto useable without players purposefully looking for it .

Rockstar Games earlier tried to fault the controversy on hacker , saying the mod was exclusively a third - party creation . " Hackers created the ' Hot Coffee ' modification by break up and then combine , recompiling and alter the game ’s reference code , ” the company said in a assertion at the time , CNETreports .

Despite Rockstar ’s assertion , the controversy finally catch the attention of activists and political leader , some of which began demanding a review of the Entertainment Software Rating Board ’s ( ESRB ) standards . The ESRB subsequently set in motion an probe intoGTA : San Andreas’Hot Coffee mini - game .
