Default [kotaku]EA Ships Illegal Weapons To Press, Wants Them Back
Quote:
lectronic Arts today contacted game writers around the country asking them to return the brass knuckles they were sent as part of a promotion for Godfather II.

The representative that contacted me said that the company wanted to make sure that the brass knuckles were "properly disposed of." He declined to comment any further. Contacted by email Friday, an Electronic Arts spokesperson verified that the company is asking that all of the brass knuckles shipped out be returned.

Brass knuckles or metallic knuckles are illegal in many of the states that they were shipped to. They're also illegal in California, where EA is based.

I searched for this but I didn't find another topic like it, so If I missed it, sorry.

Does it technically count as a repost then?
