Kotaku - We have yet to hear all the details on today's horrific shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, which claimed the lives of 27 people this morning. News is still trickling in as we learn about what happened, how it happened, and why it happened.

Get the scoop on Comedy Central's exciting new cartoon show inspired by the iconic Golden Axe video game
Golden Axe is a great game I enjoyed it on the SMS, Genesis and in the arcade. Great game but it truly was a quarter eater back in the day. I wish Sega could get the rights to the arcade port of Moonwalker another great arcade game I enjoyed. Collect so many monkeys and become Robo Michael lol.
Another horrible shooting, and another news outlet/politican/special-inter est group trying to pin it on videogames. What's new?
My heart goes out to those families affected. Shame on Fox and other outlets for being so stupid as to blame it on videogames instead of the person. Gee, could it be because we've been closing sanitariums/asylums across the country? Could it be because the cost of prescription psychiatric pills has skyrocketed? Could it be because - despite the millions we give them - public schools have woefully inadequate security measures? Nope, it can't be ANY of THOSE reasons. Must be them durn Quake III players.
It's not the games, it's not even about the internet but it's all about how the gunner was built, his psychology and his parents who failed to see how he's becoming.
Lastly, I blame the gun laws on USA as well. Yes, a grocery that lets you buy shotgun and a pistol for deer hunting? C'mon.
people that watch fox news should of traded places with the children killed.
How did I know I was gonna see this today.
I think Kotaku is missing the point of the commentary. I didn't find the speaker to be singling out video games at all. In fact like @Nitrowolf2 above...I think he makes a very valid point about the lack of human sensitivity that is being created via many of our media forms these days.
