There really is a war going on in the videogames industry, no not the console wars, rather than being about a specific console this war is for the future of vidoegaming itself. On the side of Satan you have Jack Thompson, Atari and Roger Ebert. On the side of all that is good and justly you have Drew Carey, George Lucas and Japan. There are only two sides in this war which will you choose?

THE ENEMIES:
Jack Thompson
*bleep* Jack Thompson. You all know who he is: that ambulance chaser that makes a habit of suing video game companies when someone's kid shoots their arm off with an AK-47.

THE ALLIES:
Drew Carey
Drew has a long history with gaming in public. Back when there was only one version of the Sims, Carey featued the game on his show, changing over all the characters on screen into real-life Sims, complete with talk bubbles and blah blah blah speak.

    That is a bloody great article. It made me laugh. Remember people, whenever you think, see, e-mail, talk, or otherwise do anything Thompson related, remember that Jack Thompson is actually made entirely of used condoms, duct tape, and the feet of pigeons that have that *bleep*ed up foot deformity thing where there's no toes, only gross, scaly red nubbin.

    Undoubtedly the single greatest figure in the game universe, Miyamoto-san is the Pope of video gaming. Of course, unlike the real pope, Miyamoto-san isn't a Nazi.

      Probably the first time and the last I'm going to agree with you anything game related haha. But yeah your right, I don't think I could ever side with Jack Thompson

      And Drew Carey liking The Sims? Never knew that one!

    I think everyone could guess that Wacko Jacko was gonna be on the list.

    But Drew Carey? Just because he likes the Sims?

    Well, he's famous, guess that's why they went with Drew Carey. I still can't believe that Ebert is so thick-headed that he can't see games as a form of art.

    George Lucas owns, not only did he create the best Movie Series ever, but he makes great games as well (star wars, Mercenares ETC.)

    He owns.

      I wouldn't call his movies the best ever, they were awesome no doubt, but not the best. I could name a few that has a potential to be better.

    Well, some of this list was a gimee (Jack Thompson, Shigeru Miyamoto), but some were just really off-the-wall (Drew Carey, Robin Williams). But personally, I'm amazed that Rockstar Games wasn't on the Allies list.

    Lol! This article is soo funny. Especially the picture of Atari. But, I'm shocked to see EA Games fire all of their artists after some time.

    They forgot to mention how Robin Williams named his daughter after a video game character. It takes severe passion for games to name your kid Zelda. Everything in this article I agree with.

    Oh, and *bleep* Jack Thompson.

    Zelda Williams. That's a name.

    Oh, and bleep both Thompson and Ebert. Never heard from Joseph before, but I can count he's bad, too.
