He proposed that, if someone could "create, manufacture, distribute, and sell a video game in 2006" that allows players to play the scenario he has written, in which the character kills video game developers, he will donate $10,000 to the charity of former Take-Two Interactive chairman Paul Eibeler's choosing.

Dungeons &amp; Dragons controversies "Dungeons & Dragons" controversies concern the role-playing game "Dungeons & Dragons" ("D&D"), which has received significant attention in the media and in popular culture.
