Don’t talk to the crazy man honey

Last October I talked a little about Rockstar and Jack Thompson. Well Rockstar is owned by Take Two, and they have two games scheduled for release this year. Thompson has indicated that failure of his previous lawsuits will not deter him from trying to stop these games from being released. As a preemptive measure Take Two has filed to preemptively prevent Thompson form suing them. Normally I wouldn’t mention it, but Thompson has released a response that is interesting, to put it mildly. Basically it looks like the man is a few sandwiches shy of a picnic. Give it a read. I don’t think he helped his case any.

  • Jack Thompson makes me want to laugh and cry at the same time...

  • It just didn't make any sense. He quoted a psalm, but in general nothing he said had anything to do with anything relating to Take Two, videogames, lawsuits, legal trickery, or much of anything else salient. I don't get it. I read some of the comments, and they're all like, oh, this guy's such a crazy person... No, he's just an idiot. He spent that much time writing a letter to the "video game media" that didn't make any sense and failed to provide a single valid argument for or against any position whatsoever. That's just sad.
