EA recalls Godfather II brass knuckles |
Ó
were we thinking?" over the last few days, and now they want their shiny weapons back.
They must've realized that they just distributed real weapons into the gaming press, and that some states actually consider possession as illegal. Although they pointed out that it's all for curio, EA went on the safe side and decided to recall the brass knuckles before news start popping out that some guy got beat up with the swag bag freebie.

I want a pair now :( lol.
wow that was pretty stupid, considering alot of kids probably bought this game, might as well give them a knife and a gun too, maybe slip some drugs inside the manual.
They do look kinda bling bling though.
Does anyone here like fishsticks?
they should recall the cigar and matches
Did you happen to read the article?
It's a press kit. So they went to people who work for gaming magazines or people on gaming tv like G4.
No child should work for either of those.
It also didn't come with the game like you clearly thought.
"maybe slip some drugs inside the manual."
If only!
sorry i didn't pick up on the term 'press kit' my bad
p.s if you like fishsticks you're a gay fish.
I was wonder if something like this would happen. Brass Knuckles are not just illegal in some states. They are considered DEADLY WEAPONS in all others. If you conceal one on your person it is considered a felony. Unless you have a conceal and carry license. Yes, the exact same permit needed to carry a gun.
It's to easy to consider it a toy, or souvenir. It's considered a DEADLY WEAPON. They would get sued so bad EA wouldn't be able to come out of a financial hole for years.
Lol, I know what your talking about with GTA, they shouldve done that.
P.S. didn't realize it either about the press kit thing
So I can break your face. MAN UP!
If you call brass Knuckles paper weights or belt buckle you can sell them legally(atleast in WA) because ive bought a "paper weight" from a smoke shop before
People will probably keep them, maybe they'll be worth a lot of money now
Not surprising....
If they were just for "curio" why not just make plastic knuckles with a shiny coat of brass coloured paint on them...
To bad EA recalled em, I wish they would go out of business..
stupid company that eats up smaller companies, and then regurgitate a crappier low budget game that the company they ate up was going to make. the only good thing EA did was Rockband, and Battlefield. bah infact Dice made battlefield.
Also, didn't godfather II get like a 5 in the may issue of GameInformer? So oh well!
