This guy has nothing on the Halo kid, but at least he is going away for a long time. Sad to see this happen.

A small handful of people have gaming related causes of death over the coure of five or so years, and the media loses their shit. Buckets of people die everyday from things as mundane and accepted as alcohol and saturated fat, and it's an "oh well, people make their choices" kinda of thing (unless it's drunk driving, then we'll campaign in the middle-schools...where everyone is 13...and oh yeah, in my state, you can get 7 dui's before you have to lose your liscence)

Angry nerd rants aside, having been moved out for a couple years and having had some time to reflect on the things my parents (who are good, balanced, supportive people) said about gaming, I'd say that a lot of parents are want to find gaming's dark underbelly, with out stopping to wonder whether it is there at all. Perfectly sensible and balanced people who are not normally rash or propaganda driven will eat up anything they hear that reinforces the idea that video games are for losers and nut jobs so they can feel vindicated when they force their kids to do whatever they found entertaining as a kid. So the media prints it cause it draws a lot of attention. I had a friend in high school who couldn't play wow because his parents had heard the story about the gamers who killed their kid by leaving it in the car for three days or whatever.

Of course, that being said, wow is the face of evil :S

I started playing video-games cause I grew 6 inches one summer and no longer had the coordination to play basket-ball lol.

Strap him in a chair and force him to delete all his accounts and items, one by one.

Much worse than the death penalty

Let me rewrite that article:

Mom talked and died soon after. Evidents points a relationship between her talk and her death. It is also known that manny ppl have talked and died afterwards, thus its dangerous to talk and governments should bring up regulations to reduce the talkings that is going on in our society.

this guy has it right. People with anger issues need help. People without anger/irresponsibility issues don't.

some of you guys just dont understand news stories

"angry kid kills mom" compared to

"angry kid kills mom after her bitching about his gaming habits (games kill)"

lets face it, the latter is more interesting and gets people to read. ~_~!
