Deadly_Nightshade Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Yeah, that won't incite lawsuits. Not if they included references that hinted at an identity but did not explicitly say a name, like the political adds in Bloodlines. "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot
Deraldin Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 This thread needs to be renamed. Jack Thompson has no problem with Mass Effect
Sand Posted January 28, 2008 Author Posted January 28, 2008 Okay, what weird alternate universe did that Jack come from and where is his goatee?!?!?!

Nick_i_am Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Not if they included references that hinted at an identity but did not explicitly say a name, like the political adds in Bloodlines. A reference is fine, but that isn't a cameo. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)
Fenghuang Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Hey guys, we need to get together and do something about these sex scenes in Mass Effect. I think we should all sign a petition calling for some action to be taken, and for them to rectify the situtation. The sex scenes in Mass Effect just aren't graphic enough. I demand better sex scenes! /signed RIP
thepixiesrock Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 And if you elect me, I promise that all sex scenes will have no less than three penetration shots. That's a Lou Gutman promise! Vote for me! Lou Gutman, P.I.- It's like I'm not even trying anymore!http://theatomicdanger.iforumer.com/index....theatomicdangerOne billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the galaxy. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips. I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.
Fenghuang Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 What about the money shot Lou? This is important to me! RIP

aries101 Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 I don't think Jack Thompson suddenly did fall into an alternative universe. Jack usually complains about the content that it is inthe games, not content that's not in the games. I think that Jack Thompson is fine with Mass Effect since it is being market to M(ature) gamers and that you have to be 17+ in most stores to buy it. I also think that even Jack Thompson can see that Fox News did tell 'lies' or at least weren't that truthfull about the content in Mass Effect.

Calax Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 Jack Now hates the DoD! Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
Tigranes Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 I knew it! America's Army! This is a battle he will make even less ground in than usual, and he has certainly picked a weird time, when msot people have forgotten about the Defence Dept's involvement with games.

aries101 Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 I haven't read the article in the Escapist yet, but I think that Jack this time around has better cause - also seen from (some) gamers viewpoint. If Jack's against the violence in America's Army that's one thing, but if he (like me) is against US Department of Defense being involved in game making at all, then I think more gamers need to back him up on this point. I dont see why the DoD needs to be involved in game making at all.... Please support http://www.maternityworldwide.org/ - and save a mother giving birth to a child.
