This is just a political type of move. I would bet $$$ that that florida AG wants a political career someday.

Of course it's a political move. He's a politician.  McCollum is a former congressman and the current attorney general, which means he already has a lengthy political career.  IIRC he wanted to run for Senate but lost in the primary to Katherine Harris (who then lost in the general election by a landslide).

And I agree with those who point out rightly that the free publicity will result in increased sales of the game as people will want to find out what the hubub is about.  Honestly, people like Thompson are either complete and utter idiots for calling attention to something they want ignored or just desperate for attention, or both.
