WHHHAAAT THAAA FAAAAX

...When will the gov. realise that he is a waste of space??

I made a thread about this...but I deleted it as soon as I made it. Because I remembered there was a sticky. So I posted it there. Read this, I'll delete my message, and hopefully you can delete your thread.

EDIT: Oh too late. Someone posted. This is going to get locked and you might get moderated.

What the hell?

Did he leave a comment saying video games led to aggressive behavior?

Isn't that contradictory to the fact that crime has gone down over the past few years?

my favourite response towards that article:

Mr. Thompson,
I am a mature and decidedly intelligent member of the gaming community. I respect your opinion, and frankly, I agree that mature content should not be allowed into the hands of minors. That being said, video games have their place.
Video games have been proven to increase hand-eye coordination and to improve the subject's capacity for fine motor skills. In addition to these benefits, interactive media is a fantastic (and under-utilized) tool for education.
I'm assuming you haven't played BioShock. It is set in an underwater utopia (Rapture) that has been destroyed by the advances of science and the sense of moral ambiguity which led it's citizen to play God and genetically "enhance" themselves.
BioShock is a commentary on the perils of technology divorced from humanity. It is a commentary on religion, science, and ambition that is steeped with literary and historical references. This is hardly a gratuitous game.
If anything, it follows closely in the tradition of dystopian literature from the likes of George Orwell and Any Rand.
You should applaud the developers of this game for giving substance to their craft and admit you have made a mistake. Your statement is arrogant and ill-informed.
If Americans rallied against everything that they found potentially offensive, we would live in a pasteurized culture where news and all media was filtered before it reached us. Adults would have decisions entirely taken out of their hands. Expression would be eliminated.
Come to think of it, that would make a pretty good game.

I think that there's one thing that all fanboys can agree on, and that's that JT is just a big idiot who embarrasses himeself on a normal base.batistafan99

so he's on base?

No wonder he's so stupid.

I really though about that today...:?

If I may ask, but which sticky are you talking about?

I wonder if that first reply on the news site is really JT himself.cametall

He can attack Manhunt all he wants, but attacking Bioshock is crossing the line.

*loads shotgun*

But isn't this topic mostly about Jack Thomspon?

What the hell?
