Shit like that REALLY pisses me off when people blame their fucking problems on games like this in order to try to make a few bucks.

The kids were 14 and 16, they SHOULDN'T have even been playing the game. The game clearly has a Mature rating on it and if you go to buy a game like that from Wal-Mart, the register does send up a notice to check for ID to make sure that the buyer is 18 and older. I'd be more than willing to bet that the parents bought it for a present not knowing what it is, ignoring the rating, then they come around crying when the kids claim that the game gave them the idea to do it. I don't know about you, but I think that the mother that bought the game should be at fault if that's the case, not the company that made the game.
