Oh Jack Thompson, you never cease to amaze,
Oh Jack, please just shut the **** up.
Source.Fresh from trying to get Rockstar's Canis Canem Edit title banned, Jack Thompson is at it again, this time targetting Mortal Kombat: Armageddon. There's probably some justification in his complaints; you do spill about two litres of blood per battle and you're able to take out enemies with all manner of weapons. Alas, the complaint isn't regarding the violence, it's because you're actually able to make a character that looks like Jack Thompson.
Thompson has fired off a "cease and desist" email to Midway president and CEO David Zucker that states "It has today come to my attention that the newly recently Mortal Kombat: Armageddon contains an unauthorized commercial exploitation of my name, photograph, image, and likeness within the game. You are commanded to cease and desist immediately from the distribution of this game because of this unauthorized, illegal content."
Gamespot is reporting that the image of Jack Thompson is in relation to a Gaming Target Feature that shows you how to create a Jack Thompson character to fight against.
Oh Jack, please just shut the **** up.
