Random "Jack don't know Jack" thought.

You know, what kills me about Jack Thompson? He's going after a mouse-and-keyboard (or controller) game, instead of chasing after games where you actually fire simulated guns with ricochet action.

You want to persecute the GTA series as "murder simulators?" Until they invent a mouse-based pistol or start engraving "R1" on the trigger of every Saturday Night Special out there, I ain't buying it.

(For the record: I love the Time Crisis series specifically because of the guns-and-ricochet action. I was even insane enough to try TC2 with guns akimbo. Obviously I didn't get too far.)

I love the shoot 'em up games with the guns in the arcade. I scare Carl.

I think he's siezing onto that just because it happens to be one of the more popular games around. I'm not sure how much of the stuff he says is actually what he believes, and how much is just trying to grab as much attention as possible.

I LOVE Time Crisis 2!!!!

How the hell did you go akimbo in that? I've been trying to figure that out for a couple of years now.

Jump back and forth?

Straddle. Usually I just ended up alternating, with P1 crouched and P2 up/shooting until ammo ran out/switch.
