That's hallarious. I seriously think that Jack Thompson has a problem with Rockstar. Obviously Rockstar makes some pretty violent games but he always goes after there games. I bet they arn't paying him off like EA is. :P

Hoobinator

He's also been after Bioshock and Halo as well. As well as other games.

Yes but not near as adamently as Take Two games. I read somewhere that he has protested against every Rockstar game released in the last 6 years.

I'm assuming that includes Table Tennis though I'm not sure.

:o It must be some sort of evil plot, I'm sure of it. Or maybe Microsoft finally took action and replaced JT with a clone that defends videogames. And they did a bang up job I must say, because the new JT even seems to be gettting his facts wrong, just like the old one!

I can't say how true this story is, it seems a little fake.

But in a related story, it seems Ms. Lawrence retracted her previous stance on the game after actually watching someone play; instead of going by word-of-mouth like before.

No matter how much he hates video games, even Jack Thompson can't deny the flat-out ignorance displayed on that "news" report.

This has got to be a joke.. If GTA is a murder simulator and HALO 2 can teach me how to use a sniper rifle then Mass Effect is the last game Jack should be defending? WTF?

Wow, I honestly did not see that one coming. Oh well, I guess even he can tell when someone is blatantly lying (even moreso than him).

"even anti-gaming crusader Jack Thompson found self-help author Cooper Lawrence (who he refers to as a man)"

That literally made me laugh out loud, just shows that JT is just as ignorant about everything as always.

And Duke Nukem: Forever releases tomorrow. Are you sure it's not 2012?

Bill O' reiley would run for president as a democrat with Bill Clinton as his vice president before that happens.

because rockstar promotes sensless violence in america... look at manhunt, im glad the UK at least as the right idea banning that game forever to teach them a financial lesson.. they keep pushing the limit more and more, someone has to say no.

If Mass Effect was the exact same game, but made by RockStar, then Thompson would crucify it. AvIdGaMeR444
