Hahah couldnt have said it better myself. I wonder what the parents will say about this incident...

plut0nash3388d ago

That guy was psycho though.

CptEccentric3388d ago

Probably tell the kids not to be so loud anymore and make a case against the perp...

Why use a bloodied Xbox 360 controller? to promote violence when xbox does not exist in Japan? mmmmmm just wandering .....

SonZeRo3388d ago

eish, not the proper way to teach them respect.

Sillicur3388d ago

If anything, they will have less respect now for someone who does something like that.

CptEccentric3388d ago

Yah, maybe someone can rather develop a game to teach kids more respect :) With headset support of course!!!!!

lord zaid3388d ago

The problem with stories like these, is that inevitably too much attention is paid to the "gaming" aspect, as opposed the violence aspect.

Sillicur3388d ago

Yah, thankfully this time it will be much harder to say voilent games caused the incident. Might actually show a counter argument, as the kids were just a bit noisy :)

plut0nash3388d ago

Maybe not a bit, maybe very - that's no justification for that kind of violence. Who knows what else the kids were up to.

soul-assassin-3388d ago

True. This has nothing to do with gaming or what game is being played "which caused him to snap" . This is just a violent neighbour who can't deal with a bit of noise in a sensible manner.

HanCilliers3388d ago

How about rather calling the cops on them?

Sillicur3388d ago

Exactly, that would have been the best route, instead, he did something that I believe he should go to jail for. Throwing away your own life like that for some noise is just stupid :(

rawrock3388d ago

Dont give me ideas about my noisy neighbor lol...

A Matter Of Trust: What The Game Industry Should Do To Win Gamers Back

Skewed and Reviewed have written an Opinion Piece covering issues in the gaming industry, how current issues were issues years ago, and what can be done to help restore consumer trust.

Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.

Garethvk4d ago

How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.

anast4d ago

Wait until release. Watch Gameplay. Exercise patience.

Garethvk4d ago

But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.

Get rid of the suits in the industry and job done!!

Garethvk4d ago

They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.
