video game causes sword attack
fresno, my beloved, continues to impress me with stories. a 31 year old man was arrested for assaulting his roommate after they got into an argument over a video game. the victim was stabbed in the leg and had some cuts on his fingers.
the weapon of choice: samurai sword. that's right, the assailant went all kill bill (i'm not sure which volume) on his roommate. or, maybe he went fresno state basketball on him. i forget what late '90's fsu player was also arrested for attacking a guy w/a samurai sword, but i think it also started over video games.
i wonder what they were playing. obvious choices would be:
heavenly sword
dragon quest sword
prince of persia: rival swords
red steel
less obvious choices:
tiger woods gold
rayman raving rabbits
cooking mama: cook off
come on gamers, learn to settle your differences in the game, not by stabbing each other over the game.

madden 08
so, the latest version of madden football comes out tonight at midnight. i guess. maybe it just comes out tomorrow when stores open. i'd get one, but i don't have any sort of video game system. but, it's been interesting just seeing different "manly" cable channels talking about the game. or, half-listening to the last podcast from the sports guy, which was about madden 08. it was his worst yet.
i mean, i like video games. and, maybe when i get a system i'll get madden. okay, i know i will. but i'll also get fifa, legend of zelda, raymond's rabbits, and whatever else. and, if i get a wii, i heard they're also backwards compatible to gamecube. so, maybe my friend brian will loan me his copy of mario cart until the wii version comes out (i heard they have a version on the way). but, is the release of a video game so important that you devote a whole night of your network talking about it at each break? or that you devote a whole podcast from a major sports network to it? well, i guess the answer is yes because both were done. come on people. it's a video game. it's a well done video game, but it's still just a source of entertainment.
i think we need to stop overhyping the little things in life.
