It’s amazing how the actions of one can affect the entire populace. Hence is the case in Thailand where the government there has banned Grand Theft Auto San Andreas after a teen stabbed a cab driver to death and placed blame for his actions on the game. But, the government wasn’t done yet. After their swift action to protect the populace, they’ve also pulled hugely popular current games like 300 on the PSP, Gamecube title Killer 7, 50 Cent Bulletproof, and two of the Hitman games.

Actually, wait… those aren’t current, and junk like 300 wasn’t even popular in the first place. Oh, they used Google apparently and found a list of games brought about by Detroit Prosecutor Kym Worthy last year. Even then the games were outdated. Way to go Thailand!
