What exacty is blown out of proportion here? I read the article, and at no point does it even come close to insinuating that playing video games in any way caused this. Sure it mentions the Xbox as one of the possessions stolen, but it never claims that this man chose to kill this person because his mind was warped by the videogames that he played...
