    Lol, I love the inclusion of cheat codes like they’re as big of a concern as malware. Won’t someone think of the children?! I found my son playing GTA5 with bighead mode on *sobs uncontrollably*.

    This whole thing sounds like the “drugs in Halloween candy” scare, but this seems to actually be real. Neat.

    P.S. I don’t know if GTA5 actually has bighead mode.
