Jack Thompson destroys BioShock... oh wait... no, he doesn't

For some undisclosed reason, Jack Thompson was watching World Wrestling Entertainment's Smackdown and spotted the classy BioShock commercial that's been airing.

IF he wants to make sure games like these are kept away form children under 17, he should simply STFU because what he's doing right now is giving Take 2 free publicity.

Jack Thompson is M$'s secret marketing mega weapon.

Don't worry he will have no impact on our lives, other than annoying articles and whinefests that he spews.

Gamer culture is too strong for a d'bag like himself to make a significant impact.

21 - leave him alone... he's right.

much better that the youth follow the example of chris benoit rather than play a game that they can only get if their parent buys it for them, or some jack@ss salesperson with no concern for his/her job sells them illegally.

I almost can see Thompson's excuses like "Wait there, videogames are real violence! Wrestling is just fake synchronized violence, you know."... This could be hilarious if not tragic how a human being lost his time aside doing something useful to the society, like the lawyer that he could be...

Jack is using this publicity for his own greedy means. Don't get me wrong, his intentions at first may have been noble, but there is just something that changes a person's ego when a camera and spotlight starts to shine on them.
