might look like a freakin 30 year old for all i know!!!!

what's with this old man? all kids now know the gore games, not only the bioshock or manhunt. and he want to fire the manager and the sales clerk too... man, this is over reacting about this game and that game resign your self >_

"The entire video game age rating system is a fraud perpetrated upon American families from sea to shining sea,"



Game stores don't have to do ***** about ratings. esrb is a private company and has nothing to do with the law.

No single system is perfect. Underage kids get cigarettes, alcohol, illegal substances, etc. all the damn time. There are checks in place there just as there are in the gaming industry, and for the most part, they work. I remember when I was 16 I couldn't trade in my games because I was not 18. GameCrazy stood up to their values, just as every other game store does. It's only the clerk's fault, who at WORST should get a warning, with repeated offenses resulting in loss of pay or something. The manager shouldn't really be punished...

wtf is this guy's problem? I mean sure the chick shouldn't have sold his ugly 30 year old looking kid Bioshock(AWESOM E game BTW) But to get the manager and clerk fired over it? A slap on the wrist would have done fine.



Also, weird thought, what poor blind lady mated with this "thing" I mean look at him, I'm serious when I say blind, she would have had to been. Either that or it's son was made in a Laboratory.

He says GTA IV and Manhunt 2 are sex filled! This is false claims, Take-2 should sue this bastard, he's been warned loads of times before, he clearly doesn't know the legal system he's working for.

He manipulates his own child into doing his dirty work. That's REAL mature. I bet he was a gamer but sucked so bad that he is now trying to destroy the gaming industry, but will never succeed in it. No one, literally no one cares about this guy, nor do they support him.

C'MON ALREADY! HES FRIGGIN 70 YEARS OLD, OR AT LEAST LOOKS IT. WHY THE HELL WONT HE JUST DIE?

yeah the lady probably mistaken the kid for a 30 year old

This guy is completely after his own interests. He is so convienced in what he believes in he will literally regard any and all evidence to disprove his beliefs that kids are being sold M rated games and M rated games destroy the fabric of American society. He went into one store and it was a BEST BUY. Do you guys ever go to best buy? There is usually a sea of people on line and the clerks are usually underpaid staff that have to get through each customer ASAP. For him to bundle all stores that sell games together like that is immoral and wreckless. If your going to do it right then do it right Pal. Send your poor son to dozens of chains (I'm talking Best buy, Circuit city, Game stop, EB, Walmart, Cosco) And not only that, send him to multiple locations of the same store. This is how you get results, not by using one incident as a statistic to your theory. This should be completely disregarded.



This guy is exactly what is wrong with the rating system for games. Instead of trying to find ways to fix it so that a kid wont be able to purchase M rated games, he wants to get rid of any kind of violence in games. This is a shotgun approach to resolving an issue. I say we leave it to the parents to decide what their kid should be playing. I mean, lets say the kid even gets away with purchasing an M rated game... what kind of a parent doesnt know whats in their kids console? Your telling me a parent never sees whats on the TV screen when their kid is sitting there for hours playing?

Quote from south park:



"Violence and blood is fine as long as there's no nudity"

He sends his son to buy Bioshock because he cant be viewed buying the game himself!



The "mission" is only a cover up, he loves to play violent games!



Go go thompson.

but is it againts the law to tell an underraged person to buy something that isnt meant for their age?

I hope that too

Isn't it illegal to ask youngster go buy a M-rated game? lol



Anyway, I don't care, it's just about game sellers policies... I don't care if they update it, it should be better this way anyway, just like walmart stopped selling guns to underaged, lol. Anyway, I'm AO rated so I can play whatever I want.



And right now, the ESBR is sued non-stop (or accused of something) so the rating should get lower by the time (I mean, a cartoon is more violent then a movie? wtf).

The game ratings should be changed its an old system implemented since Mortal Kombat was introduced to gaming. Also Jack Thompson should be fired and sued for nagging persistence on the gaming world.

first of all the ESRB is not LAW!its a voluntary rating system. second i played gta 3 when i was 10, and im perfectly normal.

did you even understand the point?



what he meant was, the amount of children watching WWE. But then again, tv and movies shall never fit in the category of videogames, thus having less limitations, which I truly don't yet understand why.

What law dows it state that it is illegal to sell a M-rated game to a 15-year-old? The ESRB is a volentary rating system, meaning that stores don't have to listten to it. So, no crime was comitted here, and Jack Thompson should concentrate on somthing more important.

he successfully mated and produced a child?

thankyou!! somebody find his email n send him that so he'll shutup! hes so ignorant, he needs to get its not the kids fault for buying the game, its the parents that let them do w/e the shtake they want n dont try to watch for that. and he just proved this by lettin his son go n do jus that. somebody please email thatto that annoyin bas****

What a *****ing douche bag! Jack is an *****.

i really feel bad for the clerk and manager. they dont deserve to be at the mercy of that crazed lunatic. sure they shouldnt have sold the video game to his son. but being fired? that quite extreme. and as people said, theres no law saying a clerk cant sell an M game to a 15 year old
