Rockstar Strikes Back

Eurogamer is reporting on a little humor that Rockstar is having at Jack Thompson's expense. From the article: "Rockstar has just launched a new website for forthcoming PSP game GTA: Liberty City Stories, which features a spoof email from 'JT@CitizensUnitedNegatingTechnology'. 'The Internet is an unambiguous evil,' the email reads. 'The only things worse than the Internet are computer games and liberals ... Only last week, I was using the Internet to look up some information for my 15 year old niece, who is a keen water skier and state wide sailor ... Trust me when I say this - searching under the subject matter "Teenage girls water sports" is not for the faint hearted.'" The article goes on to describe some frantic arm waving from the parody's target.

I believe...

That's a fake email address.

But I'm not sure about this: "Jack Thompson can assure the world that the only thing to which he is "addicted" is eating entertainment industry scofflaws for breakfast - and golf."

Is that a real quote?! First of all, why is Jack Thompson referring to himself in the third person? And secondly, what the hell is he talking about anyway?

You can tell the maturity level of R*

It seems that R* has taken a major blow by JT himself. Rather than trying to prevent scientific evidence to refute the ideas Jack Thompson is presenting, they make a parody site. I can imagion how a court case in the future will look. Jack: "Interactive media simulate the brain more than passive media and thus influences a child's behavior more." R*: "You're a @%$# #*@^er! *snicker*" Give me a break. If R* wants to legitimize their games, they should fight smarter, not prove that the corporation is run by 12 year olds.
