| GamingCrazy Addict ![]() | Jack Thompson is at it again It appears that the bastard Jack Thompson is up to his devious games, this time he sent his own 15 year old son to purchase bioshock an m rated game from a best buy store. " We have just received an email from Attorney Jack Thompson stating that his 15-year-old son purchased the Mature-rated game BioShock from a local Best Buy. Thompson informs us that BioShock is created by "the notorious Take-Two interactive," you may remember them from publishing such ultra-violent games as Grand Theft Auto. Thompson says that in using his son in a sting operation, he's proven "that Take-Two's upcoming releases of hyperviolent and sex-themed Manhunt 2 and Grand Theft Auto IV will be widely sold to kids of all ages, despite promises by Take-Two, the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB), and major retailers." No word if Thompson will allow his son to play the copy of BioShock he purchased. Thompson goes on to say that retailers and the gaming industry are "engaged in a fraudulent and deceptive trade practice across the nation" by claiming to check IDs. This is exacerbated by his son purchasing the M-rated game from the same Best Buy store Thompson sent his son to buy Grand Theft Auto: Vice City at when he was 10-years-old. Thompson is demanding that Best Buy fire the store's manager and the girl with the "piercing through her right eyebrow" who sold his son the game. Thompson finishes by saying, "The entire video game age rating system is a fraud perpetrated upon American families from sea to shining sea." We should keep that in mind the next time we recruit our own child into a crusade and approve of him or her purchasing an M-rated game." [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] I'm sure his son will need years of counseling having Jack Thompson as his father, I mean who uses their own kids to do their dirty work for them. I hope he receives a backlash from this. |

| GamingCrazy Guru ![]() | Re: Jack Thompson is at it again I feel sorry for the kid. If he was a gamer, then he would be missing out on a good game. I wonder if he would let his son play it? Leave it up to the parents to teach them stuff from games. If I was someone else and younger, I would probably bully the kid if there was major changes. He probably would cop a lot of stuff from school. I mean, I doubt the kid is like Ned Flander's kid; all goody to0-shoes and such.

| Don't Care ![]() | Re: Jack Thompson is at it again I was avoiding this thread for a reason. It is not illegal to sell video games to kids who aren't age appropriate for the game. Or what the industry deems underage. He is an idiot and if this is what he spent all that money on getting a law degree for... welll Jack Thompson Fails... And christ his son is gonna be ****ed up when he gets older. |
