Jack Thompson is a lawyer who likes sueing Rockstar Games and other developers of ‘violent’ videogames and every now and then we have a really good laugh with him. This time Jacky boy submitted gay porn in court documents because he believes the Florida Bar is collaborating against him with a gay activist attorney from Miami who owns a site called NationalGayNews. He gathered some pictures from adult entertainment advertisers in an attempt to show the court that the other lawyer was in the business of ‘distribution of hardcore porn to anyone of any age’. The judge, Adalberto Jordan of the US District Court for the Southern District of Florida, wasn’t amused.
The judge didn’t see the relevance of Jack Thompson’s evidence and the weird thing is that he made the pictures available for unlimited public viewing on the court’s docketing system. He placed them in the docket in this case without permission from the court. Thompson has time until October 5th to why he shouldn’t be referred to the Florida court’s review board. What’s bizarre is that Thompson upset the court that has to decide the case of if the Florida bar can stop him from practicing law.

A few weeks ago someone from BlackLooksclaimed that Resident Evil 5 is a racist game. The main character in the game (Chris Redfield) shoots a few black ‘zombies’ in one of the Resident Evil 5 trailers, and according to the writer this would lead to racism with youngsters.
Now Roberto Lovato, a writer of a political website called Alternet, claims that the whole Resident Evil serie contains racism. He refers to a mission in Grand Theft Auto Vice City where players have to kill Cubans. He also made a study that said that 56% of all human characters in games are white, only 22% are African American and on the bottom of the list are Latins with only 2%.
There were several special Halo 3 launch events all over the world, and even The Burger King mascot played some Halo 3 on Microsoft’s Xbox 360 while standing in line.

Aurora Technology, a company based in China, has frozen game accounts of male players who play a female character in its in-house developed MMORPG King of the World. They say only female gamers can play as female characters, and they have to prove their sex with a webcam. Give me a break, some folks just like playing a hot female character in a fantasy game and they don’t have a valid reason for freezing those accounts! What about women who want to play a male character in King of World, do they get banned too?
Aurora Technology to its employees: Stop being a bitch and get a male character, you pussy!
On several gameforums people are complaining about scratched Halo 3 discs in the Limited Edition box of the game. This Special Edition version, a must have for all Xbox 360 fans, comes in a special black package, but the holder that keeps the disc in its position is too flat. When the box is being shaked around too much the disc gets scratched.
This problem only occurs with the Limited Edition versions of the game, there aren’t any complaints about the Legendary and normal edition of the game. Not only consumers but also several gameshops are complaining about the Limited Edition DVD. Bungie and Microsoft haven’t respond on the news yet.
