Im wondering if it actually was an email from him or more someone trying to stir shit up with an easy target. Its so easy these days to spoof emails.
Ive actually talked to Mr. Thompson on the phone before and his main issue with the industry and violent games was how its not regulated to the point where there is responsibility for both the publisher and retail outlet to prevent mature titles from falling into the hands of those outside of the age classification. Granted it may sound far off from reality in that extent as people will argue why isnt the same for movies or music, but still its a reasonable point. We spoke for about 40 minutes and had a good civil conversation.
Unless there is an actual official statement from him, Im going to call bullshit on this one. As its so easy just to spoof this shit for attention.
If its proven that it really is him, well then guess he really has gone off the deep end even further, than his antics that got him disbarred.
