Jack Thompson responds to EA, Mass Effect 'controversy'

Quote:
Responding to the latest press release, Kotaku's Brian Crecente asked Thompson what he thought about the Mass Effect story. Thompson responded, "The guy who shot his mouth off about it had no idea what the Hell he was talking about." (We assume he meant conservative columnist Kevin McCullough and isn't confusing Fox News guest Cooper Lawrence's gender.) Thompson later added, "This contrived controversy is absolutely ridiculous."

Well, maybe he didn't actually defend the game, but by the statement, he sided with EA. Still didn't expect that from him.

maybe trying to make it seem like he isnt a bad guy? take advantage of someone elses mistake to make your case stronger. if he slams someone who makes a false claim in some peoples eyes it may make him seem more knowledgeable about games

its a good thing i might be Buddhist. We only pretend to worship all of the other religions just for the Holidays. but then again... ill be a little safer and just repent. Id rather die a Hypocrite than a Heretic. and whats with the end sounding like a horse? only horses can neigh.
