Kotaku reports:
Electronic 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….
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….
UPDATE: After a little research we found that according to California Penal Code even shipping brass knuckles [back to the sender -EV] may be illegal.
Uh oh. Thanks to Eric Horbey for the pointer.
