"A couple who authorities say were so obsessed with the Internet and video games"

Nobody knows what game it was.

Secondly, we all know that the only game capable of doing such a thing to parents is a marathan raid in WoW.

I rofl'd when they said it was going to be treated as a mental illness.

Lol....I was goign to post the same thing at like 10 AM..... I was too lazy -.-

Its kinda sad what they did to those kids though... Some of that shit could hurt them later on in life (EG: Genital Infection)

Viloria said the Reno couple were too distracted by online video games, mainly the fantasy role-playing "Dungeons & Dragons" series, to give their children proper care.

Personally, i think this is quite sad i mean wtf how can you possibly be so addicted TO A GAME to "dump" your own children :S

That's going to be my new excuse for everything.

"Sean! How could you say a racist joke to Francisco?!?!?!"
"uhh...I was playing D&D at home so I didnt relise he was mexican."

They fail at life 60x. What they did is REALLY sad.

That's stupid. Stop blaming games just because you're bad parents imo. If you still insist it's the internet maybe you should a. Call your ISP and cancel your account B. Child blocks C. Step up as a parent and face the facts.

It amazes me more that two people that were that addicted to D&D, even went through the first stage of even having a baby.....

Could have been worse...
They could have been playing Runescape .
