If only the general public had preferred the home conversion of Daytona USA to the home conversion of Ridge Racer.

We’ve had some great PlayStation associations with murder this year, but you can’t get better than having the UN endorse your games console/violent crime assumptions.

The UN is apparently afraid that a “PlayStation mentality” will soon ENGULF the military world, resulting in everyone dying and suffering and paying £425 for things that are subsequently deemed shit and reduced to £229 and so on.

We’ve had to fiddle with the “back end” of the site and introduce a whole new PlayStation Murders sub-category to cope. Thanks, the United Nations! Sent in by a “Victor” or at least someone who gets off on pretending to be a Victor.

Please, help us to bring some blue sky in our poor country! This is the link of the story” – Francesco.

PlayStation has been accused of causing murder and early death recently, now we have – INTERNATIONAL ORGANISED CRIME!

There is no specific associated imagery. Just a screen grab of the page and a link. If there was a specific associated image it would be something poorly Photoshopped, like the head of Ronnie Biggs on Spyro the Dragon’s body.

The BLACK DEATH console claims another innocent victim. The facts of the story should just be hurriedly glossed over.
