You know the drill, GTA4 is close to release so once again Jack has to have another go. This time he has decided to target Take-Two executive chairman Strauss Zelnick or rather his mother. In the letter sent he accuses her of everything from being a poor parent to his son is selling a murder simulation and then quotes the bible to justify himself. Oh the irony
Dear Mrs. Zelnick:
Your son, as you may know (or maybe you don’t know), is Chairman of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc., whose most popular video games are the Grand Theft Auto murder simulator games banned in some countries but sold to children here.
Your son last week was reported to have said the following about Grand Theft Auto IV, due to be released Tuesday, April 29: “We’ve already received numerous [GTA IV] reviews, and to a one, they are perfect scores. My mom couldn’t write better reviews…” Taking your son’s thought, I would encourage you either to play this game or have an adroit video gamer play it for you. Some of the latter gamers are on death row, so try to find one out in the civilian population who hasn’t killed someone yet.
What you will see in your son’s game, if this iteration of GTA is anything like its predecessors, is incredible interactive violence aimed at police officers (whom you can shoot in the head and see the blood spray), innocent bystanders (whom you can run over with your car just for the heck of it), and of course the plentiful female prostitutes you can have sex with and then filet with a knife or stomp with your feet in order to get your money back. Experts note that the recent plethora of cop killings is caused in part by your darling son’s entrepreneurial energy. There are three policemen dead in Alabama because of Grand Theft Auto. I was on 60 Minutes about it. I hope Strauss has provided you with a flat screen tv to see the grief of the bereaved families that fills the screen.
The pornography and violence that your son trafficks in is the kind of stuff that most mothers would be ashamed to see their son putting into the hands of other mothers’ children, but, hey, your son Strauss has recently assured the world that he is “a Boy Scout, everybody knows that.” I’d love to see the merit badges that Scout Troop handed out. Is there a Ted Bundy merit badge? If so, your loving son deserves one now. It should be red and green, for obvious reasons.

Usually I get a laugh at Jack Thompson articles no matter how crazy or idiotic they might be, but this is just harsh!
I'd almost go as far to say that some of the things Thompson wrote to her, about her own son, are sick. Comparing Zelnick to Hitler and Ted Bundy? WTF sort of idiot says these types of tings?!
then again, he'd probably just sue
'Is there a Ted Bundy merit badge? If so your son deserves one now'. To compare a videogame designer to one of the most notorious serious killers of recent history is ridiculous and insulting to the families of Bundys victims. Not only that, but to the guys mother as well. I'm pretty aware, as all you guys are, as to who's the real villain of the piece here.
Well I can see a way that would sort of be true.It's probably hard to find a gamer that hasn't killed in a video game.
Your son, as you do doubt are aware has a massive chip on his shoulder when it comes to video games. I can only assume this was because you were an over-protective mother and wouldn't let little Jackie play pacman through fear of him going on some kind of ball eating, fruit munching binge in a hedge-maze. I put it to you that this over-protection and guarding from the world has turned your son into somekind of pedantic prick. Didn't you teach your son that if he couldn't say anything nice, then to not say anything at all.
I find if disgusting that you son feels the need to berate someone elses son via their mother, which is part of the reason I am cramming this letter into the soft soil of your grave. See what your beloved son has made me do! Forget about GTA being a bad influence. Your (so called) lawyer of a son has made me into an over complaining, scorned by others success, moaning stick in the mud. Not only that, I'm defacing you grave as you read this.
I ask you Mrs Thompson to seriously consider asking god to void and nullify the life of little Jackie boy. A man of his "talents" is not needed of this world. One less pedantic arse. One less tabloid stirring feck-nut. One less lawyer in this world. Believe me, its a better place each time on of them dies from a heart attack whilst eating their 4th lamb shank of the day.
In closing I would like to apologise on behalf of the condom manufactures, who's faulty products caused this abomination that you call a son. I would also like to apologise for shoving this letter down the base of your epitaph and would like to put forward my deepest regret for your wasted sons life.
I hope that you come to some deal with god and jackies life can be saved from that of an arsehole.
Warmest Regards
Hans O. Nmeballs
PS. If you aren't dead then I'm sure you soon will be after realising that your sons lifes works as been nothing more that a giant rant about a video game! Wow, a life well spent.
If you didn't quite get it I was being sarcastic. I can only assume that you are too stupid to understand based on your sons intellect and you know what they say. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
*bleep*ing hilarious how he targets his mother. Utter fail.
Unless the mother of Jack is as big an idiot as he is, it would be just mean to actually send this sort of letter to her. People would be as bad as Jack, if they did that. Not that you'd actually send it to her (if she is still alive)....
Just send it to Whacko Jacko himself. Perhaps he'll see the light....Yeah, right >_>
PASS ME THE KNIFE AND THE COPY OF MANHUNT 2
Wow--I wish I was THIS much of a loser that all I had to do was sit around berating peoples moms with poorly written letter of hatred and stupidity. *SARCASM* Seriously though, what the hell happened in Jacky's childhood to make him this hell-bent on banning video games? I mean, I just wanna know...did his mom lock him in the closet? Was he forcefed cheap macaroni(with no cheese) for six weeks straight? Did Molly ringwald refuse to go to prom with him?
But why is he not disbarred yet? Does the damn congress and shit actually like him? I mean i would have kick his ass out a long time ago.
