Hot Coffee deals with the game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
In this game, the developers included a mini game in which the player could control the main character (CJ) having sex with various women. It was later on decided that the game should be removed because it was pushing the limit on its mature rating. Instead of taking out the mini game, it was locked away and never to be accessed by any gamer.
The game was released for PS2 and everything was going smoothly, until it's PC release. It wasn't long before somebody cracked into GTA:SA and found the hot coffee scenes.
The ESRB, who is responsible for rating video games, was outraged and recalled all the games. The rating was changed from Mature (17+) to Adult Only (18+).
Although GTA:SA received a lot of criticism for it's intense violence, graphic language, drug content, etc. It didn't get bashed as much as it did for it's hot coffee mini game.
Which I personally find ridiculous. The game was already restricted to minors.
All this proves is that sex and nudity is worse then violence. Way to go Hilary Clinton, you score another point in our society.

You can beat a cop to death with a hammer while CJ yells; "You fucked with the wrong nigga!" Then you can steal the cop's car and run over his dead carcuss a few times... But as soon as nudity and sex gets involved, everybody panics.
Sex is not worse then violence. One is a source of pleasure and life, the other a source of pain and death.

Rockstar Entertainment's wardrobe malfunction.
A hack in the game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas where, after using several cheats and going through pain-staking effort, one can see GTA character Carl Johnson receive fellatio and play a mini-game of having sex with his girlfriend. The term "hot coffee" comes from the fact that, if the girlfriend enjoys herself on her date, she will invite you back to her house for "coffee."
Became a controversy due to Hillary Clinton, who called for a House vote urging the Federal Trade Commission to step in and investigate the Rockstar Entertainment "scandal." Since this happened, the ESRB has re-rated GTA:SA with an Adults Only (AO) rating (as opposed to the original Mature (M) rating), meaning that the game is not suitable for anyone under the age of 18. This has caused stores like Best Buy and Wal Mart to yank the game off of shelves, as most electronics stores have a policy that does not allow the sale of AO games.
To add to the irony, law suits are now starting to rise from independent consumers who supposedly bought the game for their children (who were under the age of 17), claiming that they thought that the game was rated M and not AO (the age difference between an M and AO game is one year).

The hot coffee hack has definately taken a toll on sales, since most of the stores that used to carry GTA:SA no longer allow for its sale. On the other hand, the media attention has only served to cause greater public interest in the product, which could help in the long run.

one of many excuses the government wants to keep from selling violent/sexual games.
mainly it seems like they just wanna ban games in general instead of worrying about somthing more important.
hot coffe was a mod that let u have sex with ur gf in gta san andreas.

a term currently being used to describe content within video games that contains extremely suggestive material of a sexual or sensual nature. Derived from GTA: San Andreas, due to scenes found (though unplayable) that involved female characters using coffee as a sexual inuendo.

The codename for a hidden sex scene in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas brought out by a downloadable patch. With this patch, when entering a girlfriends house for coffee, the scene shows explicit pornographic material involving the main character and his girlfriend.
