I'm sure you'll find pretty much universal agreement here on this one.

Some douchebag lawyer who shows up every time there's a controversy with video game content spouting misleading statements and outright lies.

i've seen both penny arcade and CAD make reference to some game he wants to see made

whats that about?

ah, stupid:

Quote :

"Walsh's letter comes just days after Thompson issued an open letter to the videogames industry in which he outlined his idea for a game where the CEO of fictional company Take This, Paula Eibel, is murdered along with her husband and children. Should any developer agree to make the game, Thompson will donate $10,000 to the charity of choice of Paul Eibeler, the CEO of Take Two."

yeah, CAD, VGCATS, and Penny-Arcade are really slamming him hard. I enjoy it. THe great thing is that people actually made a game mod for GTA:SA that basically matched his request. He then claimed that what he said was satire. Including the 10,000 donation to charity. So, gabe and tycho decided to go ahead and donate 10,000 to charity in his name. He is royally pissed. He faxed all kinds of people with a header to the Seattle (where penny-arcade is based) police department. However, the fax never made it to the PD.

Haha yeah he tried to get Gabe and Tycho arrested because they emailed him.
