Hate criminals who blame videos games, just cause they wanted to kill someone.

Have you heard of Jack Thompson trying to stop GTA:IV On Xbox 360? This guy has tried for years to ban GTA:IV from USA. Hopefully he will fail from doing so. :D

Yeah that guy has something against Rockstar games, he tryed to stop "Bully" from being released, but Rockstar games was smart and just changed the name and made up some story.

"He wanted to find out if it was as easy in real life to rob a taxi as it was in the game." "He wanted to find out if it was as easy in real life to rob a taxi as it was in the game."  - IS THIS GUY FCKIN RETARDED????? Wow. Seriously, they're mental. They deserve to be in a hospital for the rest of their lives, away from TV, Games, Computer, and other things like that..

I couldn't agree more, I think it's childish how criminal blame there actions on video games, It's like saying you beat your children just cuzz you saw it on T.V :lol:

Do not forget that among those stories most are paid by producers to make games being more popular...

The system works the next way:

They are signing the deal where are all options and prices of all sides... One side starts a scandal, paid press supports and bringing it on public, in the end all finishes for both sides on the same level as it was... With one difference - the scandal-man gets rewarded...

So do not call Jack Thompson an idiot... ;)

You found paradise in Argonath. You had a good game, you made good friends. The admins protected you and there were courts of law. So you didn't need a friend like me. Now you come and say "Aragorn, give me justice." But you don't ask with respect.

Jack Thompson has been barred from filing reports on this kind of thing by himself, actually. The only way he can go against video games is if he represents someone else as a lawyer.

And Thompson's moaning has made GTA considerably more popular, so it works for me.  :)

But if these "inspired retards" keep it up, GTA will be banned globally and we cannot have that. You know how some government retards are against video games and fun :neutral:

"We are sending out requests today to outlets and shops to pull the games off their shelves and we will replace them with other games. We are also urging video game arcades to pull the games from service," said Sakchai Chotikachinda, sales and marketing director of New Era Interactive Media.

I did not find any word about Courts Cases, and official announcement... And I doubt all Thailand shops removed GTA IV from sell... :D From what I understood - its just like a petition "Lets do it"...

If there will not be any Courts Case against Rockstar Games which will finish with the real banning GTA IV from Thailand - it is all just a new commercial... There were enough "promotes" of GTA IV by the "real criminals"...

Ask him if he has raised you in such a bad way that he can not trust in you knowing the difference between a game and real life.

Do not roleplay a veteran on discord, be a veteran in game.
