How do you like your hot coffee? If you"re Jack Thompson, you like it scalding game publisher"s laps. The Miami attorney and antigaming activist has done his share to see that games don"t fall into the wrong hands. And lately, those hands have belonged to almost everyone.
Thompson was among those who spearheaded the recent effort to slap an "Adults Only" rating on Rockstar Games" Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and he"s often been on the forefront of many other gaming issues, several of which have targeted the crime-spree-based GTA franchise. In the past, he"s represented defendants who have been the victims of GTA-inspired crimes, including the triple homicide of three police officers by an 18-year-old boy in Alabama.
