CBS is currently doing a series for their webpage on violence in video games. Last week they interviewed Supreme Masturbater Jack Thompson about his thoughts on violence in "Murder Simulators" (as he puts it). For those who don't know, Jack "Asshat" Thompson is a lawyer from Florida that feels its his job to get rid of video games because they are violent, and has been doing so since for the past 6 or so years. Before that he was known for suing over rap music. Basically, if it can be vulgar or violent he wants it banned. As a fun note, this guy also has had a hatred for Janet Reno since he lost to her in '88 for a position in Dade County, and since then he's tried slandering her in the news various times (from saying she's a lesbian, to having alzhiemer's, etc). Whether or not the things are true about those (I'd say probably not on most of the counts, a no comment on one of those though), he's never had proof. As with most of his claims on anything, he rarely has proof.
Anyway, This week they posted the second part of the series, which was a Tim Buckley Interview. For those who don't know Tim Buckley, he's the guy behind Control Alt Delete and a pretty cool guy (even if he is a dumbass in thinking Eve is a rip off of the Xbot). It seems to be really well done, not like some articles that are interviewing someone when they are biased against them. Next few weeks they'll have interviews with Scott Ramsoomair (of VGcats ), and others.
