ABC News wrote: "Prosecutors in Houston say they have tracked down and arrested a man who allegedly committed an online sex crime -- though technically he didn't even have a computer.

All he needed, the prosecutors say, was a game console -- a Sony PlayStation 3."

Disgusting, lets see how the media runs with this.

Keep it simple

Lord Anubis5516d ago

as if the media keeps things simple

Godmars2905516d ago

They do. That's the problem.

gambare5516d ago

mm.... I also have pics of my girl on my PS3, she's 25 but that makes me evil too?

Elven65516d ago

Gambare: Pic's or it didn't happen!

Jokes aside, I think the reason for concern is the fact that she was underage and her parents allowed such things to happen. Surely something should have raised a flag.

Buttons5515d ago

Let's all conveniently forget about all the times this has happened through MySpace and blame it on video games (again).

no kidding, last month My Space removed around 90,000 sex offenders from their site.

"Man rapes girl with PlayStation 3"

That will be next, here we good the Media is like a water park with lots of slides.

On one side: Cell phones (most with camera!), Ipods, Kitchen appliances (LG fridges), netbooks, soon everything will be connected to the internet...

On the other side, an 11 year old girl stripping in front of a pure stranger... (and managed to take a picture of herself, and send it with a game console... Not bad, since it's not so easy!)

Somehow, the parents where definitively not watching her surfing habit much for sure. Internet is here to stay, and will be available for more and more appliances in a house. Only thing to do now is set filters and WATCH your kids. Not so sure those parents were.... Didn't take 2 minutes for the whole ordeal to happen!

The parents should also be questioned.

gambare5516d ago

I think pixel hit the nail on the head, usually in this cases the parents are involved too, but that could be part of the police investigation.

Cajun Chicken5516d ago

But what is there to stop this type of thing, unfortunatly, there isn't really anything to do.
Fact is that people below my age have been pretty much absorbed with the internet at a very early age and don't worry about personal details. I mean, look at the things that people post on Myspace and Facebook and adding random people who 'seem nice' as friends. The majority of parents don't seem to care, leave the kids entertained with a PC/Console and don't realise that the internet is NOT a safe place.
No doubt as with every tale of pedos on consoles, the media is going to enjoy spinning this one.

AuToFiRE5516d ago

Whats sad is this happens almost everyday, its happened several times so far on the xbox, but this is the first time on a PS3 i have ever heard of

PotNoodle5516d ago

The power of the cell.

EDIT: :| Just read, an 11 year old girl? Not funny..

SiLeNt KNighT5515d ago

nah, ill give it ya. that was pretty funny. im with 'whateva', why does this 11yo girl have naked photos in the first place? i guess we should look at the bright side, she didnt have the eyetoy! Not to make a joke of this but people are just getting ridiculous these days. Children don't get dumber and I sure as hell know I would never do something like that at that age. Horrible parents imo. We should see if the Power of Cell can implant good parenting skills to stupid people.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

Tales Of Graces Ƒ Retro Review – Holding Out For a Hero

Gary Green said: Namco Bandai heard the call of many fans asking for the PlayStation release of Tales of Graces which was originally released seemingly exclusively for the Wii back in 2009. If you’re acquainted with the Tales series then Graces f won’t be something entirely new to you, yet if you’re a newcomer then you’ll find a plethora of gameplay mechanics and nuances that distinguish this series from other JRPGs. While the game finds itself following the traditional archetype of JRPGs, such as a somewhat clichéd story, Graces has something to offer to both veterans and newcomers alike.
