Great news!

On the other hand, would anyone else LOVE to see this done in GTA 4?


On 18 September (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/September_18) 2007 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007), Jack Thompson filed a document[62] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Theft_Auto_IV#cite_note-61) with a federal court in Florida that claims that the assassination target of a mission in GTA IV is a lawyer character based upon himself. When the main protagonist enters his office and pulls a gun on him, the lawyer yells "Guns don't kill people! Video games do!" Thompson has threatened that unless the similarities to himself are removed from the game he will "take necessary and proper means to stop release of the game".[63] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Theft_Auto_IV#cite_note-62)
