Imagine If It Had Been An Atari 2600?
The two dunderheads accused of murdering six people in a revenge killing for an Xbox video game system have offered this as their defense: Yes, we hit them with baseball bats, but we didn't intend for the blows to be "fatal."
Hmm. I guess they were just using the heavy Louisville slugger bats to say hello. Perhaps bats are the new form of greeting. "Good day, kind sirs. Mind if we pop in for some tea?" Working against them, of course, is the inconvenient fact that they hit their victims them repeatedly about the head and face, and then went back to stab them with switchblade knives.
No word yet on whether Sony will try to turn this incident into a role-playing action game for 2007.
