In 2005, a Dutch software engineer named Patrick Wildenborg released a modification that proved this sequence was not just an audio track. Rockstar Games had actually coded a fully interactive rhythm-based minigame for these encounters.

However, Rockstar Games had originally designed this into a fully playable, interactive rhythm-based minigame where players could control CJ during these intimate moments.
