The male characters are represented in this game as being very strong and almost above the law, in a way. The game glamorizes and glorifies violence by making it seem as though it's okay for them to do illegal activities and try to get away with them. It makes the player feel as though they can be a masculine, powerful figure like and helps them to virtually live out a fantasy or lifestyle they wish they could have. It is not a true representation of men as not all men run around shooting people and beating up women, or run away from the police and kill people without mercy or getting intro trouble.
There was one woman featured in the first five minutes of the clip. Within a few seconds of seeing her, she had been thrown on the floor by the male characters and was screaming. This isn't a true representation of women, however, it is quite stereotypical and makes it seem as though women are weak and less powerful than men.
