Can't people at least pick NEWER games to emulate when they kill people?
Source
This is just going to be another argument of bad parenting and kids with too much time on their hands versus the susceptible nature of youths to media. Sunrise, sunset. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
The question is whether the teens told authorities that they were emulating Mortal Kombat, or just some fighting game. A person with no knowledge of games might have just substituted Mortal Kombat since that's become synonymous with the fighting game genre (much like my dad wouldn't know the difference between a Playstation and an Xbox, so he might call them all Xboxes).
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
It's terrible when things like this happen, but Jack Thompson probably has an "I told you so" expression right about now. It sounds like these kids beat her pretty bad, too - I wonder if they were all drunk.
How ya doing, buddy? |
I guess saying Fatality would be bad taste?
However, they could've blamed rock 'n roll too. I wouldn't point fingers at gaming, if I heard some idiot kicked someone. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
I can imagine the horrifying scene. The little girl was probably screaming and crying, especially when they broke her wrist. She probably begged them to stop, but they didn't. They broke her bones and they still didn't stop, crying, begging, pleading, that was until she became conscious. Even then they didn't really stop. They continued on with the harassment because they thought she was "faking it".
I can definitely see how easy it was for a couple of older teenagers to destroy the frail body of a 7-year -old little girl, especially while they were intoxicated. How would you feel if you killed your own little [half] sister? The saddest part is that she was a very attractive female before she ruined her life by (accidentally?) killing her sister. Very pretty, especially the way her tears light up her eyes. I was speaking idiomatically.

All fingers pointing to 'video game related' go right out the window with the kids being drunk.
'nuff said. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
This is beyond stupid... there is no way that a 17 and a 16 year old can't realize the kind of damage this stuff is going to do to a 7 year old, unless they're retarded.
As for the whole NEWER games thing in the subject title. Don't forget Mortal Kombat: Armageddon wasn't released on the Wii till earlier this year. FELIPE NO |
Nah these kids were poor. They couldn't afford a Wii.
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |

Nevermind, they had a wii. Especially if the kid next door had a good christmas last year. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Like, clearly, Super Mario is to blame. You stomp goombas and body slam koopa shells in it.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
What is an innocent looking Spanish girl doing with that ugly black guy.
It's terrible what happened to the little girl, but I can't help but laugh at these ridiculous circumstances. It's like seeing someone accidentally riding a Razor scooter into a meat grinder or something. What are you gonna do. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Hey, maybe you should try that thing Chie was talking about.
|
Honestly, when I saw the words "hit, kick, and body slam", I was half surprised this wasn't another "look, pro wrestling is bad" thing. Then again, maybe they decided to give pro wrestling a rest given the year it has been.
The thing is, all they needed to do was a mention a game, and that game would get the heat. If they didn't put the blame on the game, then others certainly would. FELIPE NO |

This whole topic is disgusting. I can't believe this even happened. I could care less if it was blamed on video games. Who gives a fuck about video games when a girl is murdered. This is crazy.

Here's the more up-to-date version of that story:
How ya doing, buddy? |
Okay, seriously, Divest. Back the fuck up. You mean...you mean to say that you are horrified by the insensitive and torturous acts of a couple drunken teenagers who picked on a helpless, naive child... BUT It's perfectly okay to pester a retarded woman into taking off her clothes just so you can post pictures online and embarass her further? You aren't fooling a single person with your mock sympathies. Not even close there, ace. I suggest you back away from this discussion before you suffocate on your own hypocrisy.
How ya doing, buddy? |
I suppose I could go to drastic measures such as hypnotism to remove such a horrible, horrible person from my own persona, but it's nice having friends for a change, even if they're just slightly unwanted by the other figments of my imagination. I guess beggers can't be choosers. Much like this individual, who pops up each time I've done something wrong in my life. It's a fucking nuisance and I'm sick to death of seeing him. Then again, it's quite all right for someone to come in and give me boundaries now and then. I dunno, he doesn't seem to like her, either. What I'm really trying to point out here is:
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Please die.
I was speaking idiomatically. John Mayer just asked me, personally, through an assistant, to sing backup on his new CD.

Drawn characters have no real feeling whatever age they're said to be. They need to start making doujinshi where they start fucking granny-looking characters that are in actuality only 6 years old. I'm sure a couple dicks will explode in victory.
FELIPE NO |
Man this is horrible. So basically they both started to wrestle down this 7 year old girl until she got hurt so badly that she died? The part which I find the worst is the one were they put an egg in her mouth to see if she's faking.
I don't know how they got Mortal Kombat into the picture, but what game they definitely should be hacking on is Cooking Mama What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
