The conversation began with the Tate brothers talking about how video games have evolved over the years. Tristan Tate mentioned that video games weren’t inherently evil. However, he remembered playing as a man in a red cap trying to save a princess while teaming up with his brother. He claimed that it was a great theme for a video game.

I am not a fan of anyone under the age of 18, 21 maybe, where the goal is to shoot police officers. I just don’t think that it is good for society.

Andrew Tate then weighs his opinion on the Grand Theft Auto series. He emphasized that he dislikes the notion of being able to shoot police officers in a video game, especially when the player is under 18 or 21 years of age. He added that modern video games have much better graphics and engines. Hence, developers should create a better objective for the video game.

Later, his brother also joined the conversation. He compared the GTA series with the lens of Super Mario Bros. Tristen said

Video games aren’t necessarily evil. But, you know, I remember when video games… cause I’m very old, I’m an old man… I remember playing a little man with a red cap trying to rescue the princess and teaming up with your brother. Now if rescuing purity from evil while teaming up with your brother isn’t a good theme of a video game, then I don’t really know what it is…

Andrew Tate added that he would prefer a video game in which you play as a police officer rather than killing one. Many people have called out the Tate brothers for this reaction. They claim that Tristan and Andrew Tate were the last people who were expected to say something like this and go “soft” over Rockstar Games’ latest video game.
