I'm sure quite a lot of you will have heard about Jack Thompson. Also known as the World's Biggest Moron, he has made it his life's mission to prove that all video games are evil, warp children's minds and should be banned. He enjoys attacking Rockstar for their GTA games (claiming that murderers use them to practise on. Come on, how many of the world's guns require you to hit the X Button to fire?) and has attacked other games like Killer 7 (citing its none existent explicit scenes) and The Sims 2 (claiming it encourages paedophilia).
Recently, he told the press that if someone would "create, manufacture, distribute, and sell a video game in 2006" one of his ideas, he would donate $10,000 to charity. The game basically involves a disgruntled father of a killing victim who takes his revenge upon the games industry, which he blames for 'training' the man who killed his son. The father begins a spree of murders in retaliation, attacking the offices of "Take This," who made the game, and killing the chairman "Paula Eibeler" and her family. The father then begins a road trip across the states, back to Los Angeles, then assaulting the law firm "Blank, Stare" who represent "Take This" and various gaming arcades and games stores before arriving at E3 and completing a "monstrously delicious rampage" on the participants. I'm not sure why he wants this, since it sounds considerably violent, but then who knows how the minds of complete idiots work?
Then of course several companies actually offered to make his game. Jack then turned round and said his proposal was "Satire" and refused to donate the money. As the people of Penny Arcade said (after donating the money under Thompson's name), "We must conclude that his financial offer was also satire, some new breed of satire apparently that I'm sure is just hilarious to people in need."
Now Thompson is threatening to sue Penny Arcade for "activities of harassment". God, what a moron. And in case anyone here is siding with him for some reason, he also stated that he believed all gamers were druggies. What a f***ing moron.
