Halo tied to DC shootings. No Joke
i just saw on tv coverage of the DC sniper trial where they alledgedly claim that john muhammed "trained" the younger kid (i forget his name offhand) in basic sniper skills by playing halo.
i heard that and about fell off my chair. im still looking for an official link that quotes this, but i heard it earlier today. all i have to say is that i guess its not all that surprising that video games would be blamed in any crime involving shooting nowadays. but even if this is true, its ridiculous. learning how to snipe by playing halo is equivalent to me being an airline pilot after playing a few rounds of crimson skies. completely ridiculous.

I could not agree with you more. This kind of stuff pisses me off so much. :cuss: That's like saying since I played Age of Empires I was compelled to ride around on a horse and hack people with a sword...:rolleyes: People these days. In my country, I'd have just shot those to *******s and moved on, or hung them upside down in a public square, but that's just me.
