The parents of Britain's most violent teenager has spilled to News of the world that the computer game Manhunt turned their son into a killer. The killer was supposedly a 'quiet and reserved' boy with a 'promising future' but every night he'd turn into some kind of twisted murderer as he used Manhunt to practice his potential murders. His mom claims that he never did anything to make her worry in the past and implies that his casual Playstation addiction was the sole cause for the murders that her twisted killer of a son conducted.
AND??? hahahahaha whats strange about that... happens every week over here.... I hate britain full of chavs and wankers. Take me back to Canada!!!!
People need to stop *****ing about video games.
Video games DO NOT create killers. If anything, they keep the killers IN THE GAME.
****, parents REALLY need to understand that its THEIR fault their kids act out.
And now, N4G will be run over with Jack Dumbass Thompson news claiming he was right.
the whole trick is back on full force. While yes, Games like these get people on edge, but they do not make someone a killer. A killer is a killer no matter what made him do it. You can drop a feather and a person can find a reason to kill you for that. These people are crazy from the day they were born. And from what I know, they werent born with a controller in there hands.
Our world and societies today have lots of problems (Emotional, parental, ...) but people dont want to talk aout or address them so the go for the easiest and most defenseless of them, video games instead.
Games like Manhunt have ratings and its up to parents to see wether the game is suitable for their children or not. I'm not saying that this mother is to be blamed for the tragedy but she blaming games for the murder is as stupid as gamers blaming her IMO.
Games have good and bad effects and while Manhunt may or may not have affected that boy but I'm sure there are a whole lot more important and depressing reasons behind this murder.
And, Oh my God. This will become new toy for mass media and losers like JAck Thompson.
Im sorry for the loss of the mother and victims but this is NOT the solution.
They spelled PRACTICED wrong. lol
"I knew he was playing the video games but we didn't really know what went on in them, how brutal and graphic they were."
- Then you know what, his parents should have been more vigilant. The game was rated that way for a good reason.
