"When we talk about video games, we have a tendency to classify them by the nature of their mechanics (first-person, strategy) as often as by narrative or thematic content, the way other works of art are usually described.

"This will be a debateable article for many of you, and some will simply say it is a cry piece about not having the right console, or a PC for that matter. However, to the open minded, this is a true reflection on how we have all been affected, penalised, punished or, dare I say it, betrayed by the games we love and hold dear to our hearts for simply not having the right gaming platform."

You know, I've never been one of Thompson's harshest critics. I've always thought of him as someone who fought for something he genuinely believed in... I just felt he was incredibly ill informed.
Regardless of what I think, even his harshest critics have to admit he's done something pretty respectable here. He's agreed to appear at ScrewAttack's Gaming Convention and will participate in a live debate with Joystiq's legal columnist, Mark Methenitis on the topic of video game restrictions.

""Grand Theft Auto IV" is more than 2008's Game of the Year. It's also America's touchstone, the game that continues to inspire -- inspire the awe and ire of violent deadbeats, washed-up lawyers, dumb gangs, sexual predators and news-hungry journalists fearful of gaming's effects on the poor wee tots. And once in a while, it inspires a little bit of good, too.
In preparation for the "GTA IV: The Lost and Damned" download, there's no better time to take a look back on "GTA"'s considerable ra..."
