As reported last month, Take Two sued Jack Thompson in an effort to win a restraining order against him.
According to last boss, Jack Thompson has settled with Take Two, and agreed to the following terms:
-He will not sue or threaten to sue to block sale or distribution of any game published by Take Two or its subsidiaries (i.e., Rockstar)
-He will not communicate to Take Two or anyone doing business with T2 (like, say Wal-Mart) any accusation that the company committed any wrongdoing by selling its games. Thompson is not restricted from criticizing the content of T2 games, nor is he prevented from acting as counsel in lawsuits brought against Take Two by other parties
-He will make any future contacts with T2 through its attorneys
On the other end, Take Two dismissed their claim and dropped the contempt of court charge against Mr Thompson.
It seems for the time being, gamers can play their violent games in peace.
