Dissatisfied gamer arrested for threatening to blow up Hudson
A Japanese man has been arrested for threatening to blow up the Japanese video game company Hudson. His reason? They wouldn’t listen to his criticisms of their games.
A Japanese man has been arrested for threatening to blow up the Japanese video game company Hudson. His reason? They wouldn’t listen to his criticisms of their games.
The 29-year-old suspect, a part-time courier named Takao Ike, had apparently threatened the company 11 times, from October 2008 to January 16 this year. Apart from the bomb threat, Ike also demanded an 80 trillion yen ransom.
Ike admitted to the bomb threat. In an affidavit, he said that he did it because even though he had let Hudson know about his demands regarding their games, the games themselves didn’t improve. I wonder what particular game really ticked him off.
