Title: Jack Thompson sees self in GTA IV Post by: SCerviche on September 19, 2007, 04:58:35 pm http://games.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/09/18/1633248
Quote "Outspoken anti-games lawyer Jack Thompson has decided that a representation of a 2nd amendment lawyer in GTA IV is a mocking version of him. He has declared that if the representation is not removed he will attempt to block the release of the game. Excerpt from GamePolitics: 'The showcasing play of the game to Game Informer revealed that the first killing mission of the hero of the game, Niko, is to kill a certain lawyer. When Niko comes into this lawyer's office, having used subterfuge to do so, Niko pulls a gun on the lawyer who says, that the firm supports the second amendment and that 'Guns don't kill people. Video games do.'" Hahaha now it seems like hes just grasping at straws now a days.

Hasn't he been banned from trying to interfere with Rockstar though? Title: Re: Jack Thompson sees self in GTA IV Post by: SCerviche on September 19, 2007, 10:41:53 pm No he was banned from interfearing with Take Two Interactive when he was sued by them and setteled out of court.

Then again, I can't name the other ones of the top of my head. :P But, that's what he gets for being a media whore! >:( Title: Re: Jack Thompson sees self in GTA IV Post by: necron9dee9 on October 11, 2007, 02:37:39 pm Jacky gives himself too much credit.

I wondering if he realizes how much of a twit he looks like. |
