Jack Thompson: Sims 2 worse than GTA: SA
This guy just gets more and more insane.
Apparently he has somehow come up with the idea that "a simple code, widely provided on the interent" can remove the pixellated blur that accompanies Sim-nudity in the game, and that beneath that blur are genitals, rendered in excruciatingly lifelike detail.
Yeah, maybe that's the case in Jack Thompson's masturbatory fantasies. EA has this to say: "This is nonsense. We've reviewed 100 percent of the content. There is no content inappropriate for a teen audience. Players never see a nude sim. If someone with an extreme amount of expertise and time were to remove the pixels, they would see that the sims have no genitals. They appear like Ken and Barbie."
I would love to see Jack Thompson become the laughing stock he deserves to be. Maybe this is it.

I like his statement at the end. "It's no different than what's in San Andreas, but it's worse."
This is completely ridiculous.
Worst signature ever.

This guys is just crazy. If there was a simple cheat to remove the pixels it definetely would have been exposed by now. He's just afraid people are gonna lose interest in what he has to say now that San Andreas has been re-rated.
While I am not the biggest fan of EA, no company, developer, or publisher deserves to have their product trashed like that.
P.S. The part about pedophiles practicing with this game was very disturbing.
Lobster Mobster:I find that f*cking a nice stinky cheese is an experience everyone should have at least once in their life.
Well, I was all for SA being adult only, but this is ridiculous. Just shows he knows nothing about gaming. I'm pretty sure he is referring to the downloadable mod you need to see what he is describing? If this is the case all games should be banned, since they can all be moded to have people naked.
Well, I'm sure he doesn't want that. That would be like killing the goose that laid the golden egg.

I love this guy. Ok, so...if I download a patch from the Internet, enter some codes, I *might* be able to see some 3d game boobs?
Thank God you can't actually download pictures of real naked people on the Internet:)

I would pay good money to see that. Bonus cash if in the images he is masturbating furiously while playing The Sims 2.

i think he might have bitten off more than he can chew there, the Sims is a hugely popular game with the exact market he is trying to force a fear reaction out of. Lots of moms know and play the Sims, and they (hopefully) will know this for BS when they hear it!

We ought to show him that site we had linked a while back, with the burn victim Sims and stuff.

I wonder if this guy hopes to accomplish anything *other* then take advantage of people who are part of tragic circumstances. Does he really hope to gain anything other then make a few bucks?
I have major issues with EA, but their comment is wonderful. To paraphrase: "Huh? What's this guys smoking? We need to get some of that!"

This is actually going to be funny to watch. It's one thing to go after rockstar, the people who make a game that most parent's dislike anyway... but now he's going after EA. As much as I don't like them (even more now that they bought rights to all LOTR characters) they have all the money in the world to fight this battle, where rockstar made the better business decision for themselves. Somehow I jsut don't think EA will allow an AO rating on their biggest blockbuster hit game of all time, their cash cow!
Amazing isn't it. This guy went after the game (GTA:SA) that was one of the top selling games of 2004, and is now zeroing in on The Sims franchise; the most popular selling series of games on the PC. Strange isn't it how he has targetted two of the most popular video games, but is overlooking that game Singles (the Sims rip off that actually let you see them having R rated sex). Nah, this guy isn't about the publicity at all, he is just doing his civic duty to keep all the little kiddies free of porographic digital images [/sarcasm].I wonder is he going to be going after Doom 3 next because we can see the Hell Knight's nipples.......

I dunno about Sims2, but I know Sims1 had a crack that removed the pixelation...and sure enough...Ken and Barbie under all them thar pixels.

Maybe he thinks that THAT'S how people look down there. He doesn't strike me as someone with a lot of experience or common sense. Then again, I'm not exactly a supporter of his work.
To illustrate: if his claim about Sims 2 were true I would be more likely to buy and play it! As it stands I have no interest whatsoever in that franchise.
Politely rude. Briskly vague. Firmly uninformative.

Has it really come to this?
Are we Americans so deathly afraid of.....nude stick figures??
For the love of god, if you want to get a hack and watch nude Sims, you go for it.
Of all the problems plaguing our society, this is the medicine-show schtick some whacko chooses to put on? And because the last carnival that went through town had computer sex in it, and had Hillary Clinton speaking out against it, this one must really, truly, honestly and completely address the ills of our troubled nation....
Curbing violence in some outlets? Maybe it is time to begin considering cutting back just a little. Further demonizing the human body? No unless it's Michael Jackson's.

After that crazy Ban on Boobs law, I am not shocked at all by this. I imagine this is really what the majority of America feels.

I seriously hope there was sarcasm in that statement. What the majority of America feels is nothing. Parent's don't care until a big deal is made about it. The reason: If there is a big deal made about it and then the parent doesn't do anything to "look" proactive in society, then word might get out that the parent did nothing and then they are frowned upon by all the world. poor poor irresponsible parents.
Sadly, even when a big deal IS made about things like this, most parents still don't give a flying fig newton.
I'm sure everyone else has picked up on this, but I'm going to state it anyway.
The real reason this is being blow into monsterous proportions is for 2 reasons.
1) As we all suspect, this is Hillary Clintons way of trying to get a leg up on the '08 election.
2) Congress has apparentally given up on stopping illegal drugs, child molestation, illegal firearm, and prostitution. They must have realized that they aren't making that much of a difference by passing laws. Only dedicated police officers and SWAT teams make a difference. So what do they do now? They gotta pick on someone they can beat down. They are being bullies. They got a small taste of power when they forced GTA: SA to be re-rated to AO. They liked it. Kind of like when the RIAA sued that pre-teen honor role student who lived in the projects for sharing music through KaZaa or whatever program she was using. That sure must have made them feel good.
