adam sessler stutters wayyy too much. but he had some good counter arguements. the other guy was ceo of gamedaily.com i dont know his name. the game that is getting jack all riled up is bully, from rockstar, and it IS going to be released. it was stated that the game involves no blood, or death of any enemy. so i dont get what hes bitching about... its takes place in a private school anyways...
sessler had maybe, MAYBE one good comeback, but it was based on opinion, not on facts. it just hurt to see those that (sadly) represent the industry mainstream got torn to shreds to easily.
at least gamedaily guy had some perspective being a father and all, but addam ruined everything. they should have just gotten the chick from cheat to debate. at least then we'd have something nice to look at while they get torn apart.
From what I have heard Jack Thompson has been losing a bit of credibility as a lawyer himself, because he has been fairly childish in certain cases as well. I am not entirely certain though, I read this out of an article in Electronic Gaming, so the writers had to have been somewhat biased. But honestly, I do not like most Rockstar games, so I find it difficult to worry about this too much. Also, since video games have retained their constitutional protection for so long, in spite of Jack Thompson's ten years (or more) "crusading" against them, I really am only worried less.
Annddd, I would not mind if Rockstar was limited in what they could put into their Grand Theft Auto Games (aside from the fact that it may lead to more limitations on more games, which does trouble me. . . so perhaps I should not say this.) I do not mind because lately video games have become a huge popular entertainment tool (and the GTA games, though not the reason for this event, have certainly contributed to its appearance), and because of this I feel

Bear in mind that we are talking about the same company that recently released "Rockstars Table Tennis" which only stirred controversy due to the fact it was NOT offensive in any way, and also proved that they could make a solid, fun game NOT using "sin" as a primary selling point
