wondered how long it would be...

[epo]

before this happened

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=27255&item=8121840143&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW

thing is its not been banned the shops have taken the game off the shelves as a mark of respect

tbh its really winds me up how one idiot ruins it for people ive bin playin violent computer games for years seen violent films and never once had the urge to copy them and kill some 1 its so sick

i feel so sorry for the murdered lad and his parents this all happened because of one sad sick freak :rant:

[broody]

THIS GAME WAS BANNED 29/07/2004 AND IS GOING TO BECOME VERY VERY RARE AND VERY VERY VALUABLE VERY VERY QUICKLY.

its not ben totally band, just a few shops have taken it off their shelves because the news are saying its because of this game that he went and did it, because he cant determin what is reality and what is a game.

Its stupid, is got nothing to do with the game,

It's some common scally that think he's the next so solid crew and he went and stabbed somekid, no doubt i twas prevoke, Not being nasty but the kid who got killed had to of done something.

[dan_mk1]

Whats happened?! whats the story behind it?!

[epo]

basically a 17 year old lad was obsessed with the game manhunt
he lured a 14 year old lad out to a park by tellin him they were meetin sum girls and the 17 year old killed the 14 year old with a hammer like they do in manhunt

therefore manhunt the game was blamed and dixons currys and pc world took the game off the shelves as a mark of respect

[broody]

WTF are you on about epo, its this kid, 16-17 stabbed another kid in the chest with a knife in the playground at school, and now he's in prission getting life.

Where the hell did that come from epo?

There might be another story that ive not hear dof epo but i know some shops have taken manhunt off shelves becoz of the one i heard of.

[Barn]

that game is fcuking quality tho

[Rach]

they were in the corridoors between lessons and a 16yr old stabbed another kid in the chest. he's threatened to kill him for ages

[epo]

man hunt has nothing to do with what that kid from lincolnshire did it was another murder from what manhunt had to do with

a 17 year old lad killed a 14 year with a hammer as he was obsesed with the game
the 16 year old that stabbed that lad was obsesed with slasher films :!:

[Rach]

either way... lots of lovely kids going about

(glad i'm not gonna be a secondary school teacher)

[epo]

it was a black lad that killed the kid with a hammer ne way trust me am right :wink:

[Rach]

i believe you, i just dont think i'd heard about it...

pretty f*cked up anyway

[epo]

aye very

wiered how the human mind works and not being able to change from game to reality :?

[Rach]

maybe the people that cant change, dont want to change...?

maybe they like thinking that they are these tough characters as it makes their lives more interesting

weird

[Fester]

pmsl the kid who stabbed the other kid in school did so because the kid who was stabbed had been taunting the other one about his mum who had recently died.

The Manhunt was as described, the older kid luring the other one into the woods then smoking him with a hammer. I think someone should go CS on his ass and take him out with an AWP if he likes games so much

[Fester]

It's only one company that's removed it from sale anyway, those stores are within that trading group, everyone else still sells it

[Rach]

:?

[General Baxter]

yeah but how can they blame a game, iv played this game and bambi is worse than this

i dont feel the urge to go build a rollercoster park do i (well one day :D)

[epo]

It's only one company that's removed it from sale anyway, those stores are within that trading group, everyone else still sells it

yeah i rented it out this weekend again

it was taken down as a mark of respect so the bloke aint got his facts right lol chargin ?50 for it :lol:

[Philsutton]

the game has nothing to do with it, some people are just fucked in the head from the start an feel the need to kill someone cos they think it will be well cool. A game does not make someone kill someone else.

[?Marty?]

^^^ of course it has. I listen to Eminem, Marilyn Manson, play violent computer games, and watch violent films. And THEY ALL whisper to me.

[?Marty?]

The videogame is being used as a scapegoat, nothing else.

It allways happens. Eminem, Marilyn Manson, Childs Play (Bulger Killers) and etc.

It's a combination of things - society, personal experiences, upbringing, and etc.

Not sure if anyone's heard of these, but after the Matrix film, there were a few cases in America where people killed someone because they couldn't differentiate between reality and actually started believeing in the matrix conspiracy after watching the film! Their legal representation used ''the matrix defence'', and one infact was found to be not guilty due to it !!

[burgo]

i think this is stupid bannin a game its not gonna sovle feck all

[Philsutton]

there is still going to be bad ass gangster wannbes with voilent games or not

[music junky]

I play gta vice city, but i dont go out nicking cars.
I would love to kill Diaz :lol: i hate that Fat Basted.
If you notice the kids that kill other kids? they have something wrong with them.
Nova killings! Police are after a group of Nova drivers that Nock down and kill Saxo drivers :lol:.
Return of the Evil modders :lol:
They made that poor blonde give the exhaust pipe a blow job and she never took her chewing gum out the dirty cow!
Wank-er lights that fire lasers.

[Rach]

Nova killings! Police are after a group of Nova drivers that Nock down and kill Saxo drivers :lol:

*cough* phil

[Mike.]

i knew that kid who got stabbed at school and that wasn't coursed by manhunt, there was another more resent murder that that game was connected to

[Stuart]

the contents of novaload is more disturbing than ANY game or film!!!

[Philsutton]

Nova killings! Police are after a group of Nova drivers that Nock down and kill Saxo drivers


*cough* phil

i havent got that far yet, im happy with damaging their saxos and bascially been a twat towards them

[snapper]

ot sure if anyone's heard of these, but after the Matrix film, there were a few cases in America where people killed someone because they couldn't differentiate between reality and actually started believeing in the matrix conspiracy after watching the film!

you know how surreal that sounds? bet no one considered the matrix was a matrix within another, infinetly reoccuring. now THAT'S surreal.

notice how games are being as a really lame scapegoat? i mean, you know, you can't figure out why he did it and you don't want to accept responsibility as a bad parent or the fact that human nature is not and ideal and can lead to some strange and somewhat coincidental occurences.

remember when carmageddon and grand theft auto came out and the resulting outcry by parents and government alike? OH MY GOD, THEY RUNNING PEOPLE OVER!! AND KILLING THEM!!!!! THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!111!!1!

yeh? but nothing actually happened, did it? a lot of games are based on real life possibilities, events and theoretical occurences so it follows that it can never be games, films or music that are directly responsible. merely the human mind....

[Mel]

there are some sick people about. Its a sad fact of life that someone uses "i saw it on tv/heard it on a cd" type excuses for these sick crimes.

there must be something not-quite-right in these people's head for them to even THINK about doing something like this, and games shouldnt be used as an excuse if they decide to act on the thoughts..

[J4MES]

these e-crazy people really p*ss me off, these types of excuses are bound to get more common, we normal (cool.Marty excluded) people have to suffer....
