Anti-games crusader loses touch with reality

Grand Theft Auto IV (Xbox 360) American anti-games campaigner, Jack Thompson appears to have taken a turn for rhe bizarre. Strauss Zelnick is the Chairman of Take-Two, the company that produces the GTA series of video games, so Thompson has written to his mother (via).

The email is provocative, to say the least. Not only does it say Mr. Zelnick is “like the Hitler Youth,” it also attributes the deaths of three Alabama policemen and “a recent plethora of cop killings” to prior entries in the GTA series.

Thompson claims that the email - which is addressed to Mrs. Zelnick and carries a subject of “Your Son, Strauss Zelnick” - was not sent to Zelnick’s mother, but to his lawwyer, in keeping with a prior settlement that prevents Mr. Thompson from contacting Take-Two, unless he does so through legal counsel.
