QuoteThe showcasing play of the game to Game Informer revealed that the first killing mission of the “hero” of the game, Niko, is to kill a certain lawyer. When Niko comes into this lawyer’s office, having used subterfuge to do so, Niko pulls a gun on the lawyer who says, “that the firm supports the second amendment and that ‘Guns don’t kill people. Video games do.’”

Wonder how developers react to that one

What a fool, they need someone to take him out (of the public eye) in real life.

*Read with or without the bracketed part, a "lawyer" with such poor knowledge of the law or the subject mater he is supposed to be practicing in should really know when to quit (at life a find some pavement to jump on...from a great height)
