- NaziHatinChimp, on 04/29/2008, -10/+254Millions and millions bought this game last night. Chances are good this would happen. I am sure someone got stabbed at a Burger King last night too but this ***** is going to stand out and ***** us.
- f4nt0m4s, on 04/29/2008, -2/+180It's only ironic because they were in line to buy Grand Theft Auto.
If someone stabbed a hooker in line to buy Grand Theft Auto...then I would ***** bricks. - GoKings, on 04/29/2008, -0/+130The media is going to have a field day with this...
- inactive, on 04/29/2008, -2/+118Mission Complete! +$60
- pegothejerk, on 04/29/2008, -0/+86man, just think what's going to happen when Duke Nukem Forever comes out.
- NeoNightmareX, on 04/29/2008, -3/+84The suspect, Niko Bellic, is still on the loose.
- TRScheel, on 04/29/2008, -4/+79Just practicing his multiplayer skills
- HMTKSteve, on 04/29/2008, -3/+70Wow, I did not know the game came with an "out of the box" component.
- NathanielJ, on 04/29/2008, -2/+63I bet it's all that violence in that game they hadn't bought yet that caused this!
- yellowfish04, on 04/29/2008, -1/+60"In Grand Theft Auto, when you attack someone but don't finish them off they'll come and get you."
LOL, that has absolutely no relevance to the story but I love it. - jimmy17, on 04/29/2008, -2/+56Imagine how bad that man must have felt that not only was he being stabbed but all the little children are cheering as well.
- matroska1, on 04/29/2008, -3/+55Now that's viral marketing.
- robotto, on 04/29/2008, -1/+49Well at least he got the GTA experience...
- hydroplane, on 04/29/2008, -15/+61pointless random violence FTW
- saxreturns, on 04/29/2008, -2/+48Source other than Daily Mail or it didn't happen.
- duggtodeath, on 04/29/2008, -5/+50Get me Jack Thompson! :)
- tian2992, on 04/29/2008, -1/+41WTF were doing little children lining for GTA?
I mean, isn't it 18+? - garryw, on 04/29/2008, -4/+36Not millions, most people sleep at night and buy the next day. Most sane people.
- saxreturns, on 04/29/2008, -1/+33The Daily Mail already are, they're a highly conservative paper and will do anything to push the 'society's going to hell' mentality. That's why I'm doubting that this even happened, they're more than capable of fabricating such a thing.
- Laughto, on 04/29/2008, -0/+31GTA4 link is a stretch at best. I've lived in Croydon all my life; stabbings aren't so much a rare occurence as a state of being. Incidentally, anyone linking GTA4 to this event is going to have a hard time considering no one involved in the event could have possibly played the game yet.
PS: Can we just make it a rule to not digg dailymail stories? - diggonit, on 04/29/2008, -0/+28Did the perp carjack someone and then lead police in a chase across town causing 54 accidents jumping ***** wherever possible and eventually get busted only to be released right away?
- dominicmck, on 04/29/2008, -2/+29wait? young children, at a late night release of an R18 game, what good all round parenting.
- Skooma714, on 04/29/2008, -1/+25He was obviously inspired by a game he hadn't purchased yet.
- celkin, on 04/29/2008, -0/+21Our grandchildren will ***** bricks!
- nmcvicke, on 04/29/2008, -0/+20Its funny because you said "bloody hell"
- celkin, on 04/29/2008, -1/+20ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED
- RomeyRome, on 04/29/2008, -0/+19Too bad he can't practice law anymore. More or less...
- MScrip, on 04/29/2008, -1/+18I bet someone got stabbed 2 days ago... completely unrelated to GTA4.
- RX9735, on 04/29/2008, -1/+17***** like this grinds my gears. Don't ruin it for the rest of us by bringing kids.
- Planets, on 04/29/2008, -2/+17"Shocked fellow gamers"
Wait a minute...shocked? These are GTA fans, what do you expect? I'm surprised it took this long. - Beatmiser, on 04/29/2008, -0/+15I dugg you up because I actually got the humor. "Bloody Hell" / "Queue" British phraseology.
- yournightmare, on 04/30/2008, -0/+15One Halloween I went to a party, and on my way in the door some guy came out with blood running down his face from his forehead. I thought it was his Halloween costume, but I found later some other guys held him down and bashed his face in with a pool ball. I guess that speaks volumes about Halloween.
- hayzeus, on 04/29/2008, -1/+15Yes -- probably San Andreas
- CannedMango, on 04/29/2008, -5/+17Ignorance isn't charming
- tofslie, on 04/29/2008, -1/+12You just HAD to bring him up didn't ya.
- jerrolds, on 04/29/2008, -0/+10Achievement Unlocked: Finish Him 15G
Complete 10 melee counters in 4 minutes - inkswamp, on 04/29/2008, -0/+10Meanwhile, a man standing in line for Mario Kart Wii was viciously bonked on the head with a turtle shell.
- rspeed, on 04/29/2008, -0/+10Are you going to use a Dark Archon to do a Mind Control on the driver?
- djdingo, on 04/29/2008, -6/+15Seriously, is everyone here retarded?
It was a joke, get over it, *****. - pintomp3, on 04/29/2008, -2/+11this is just more fear mongering from the daily heil.
- surKaz, on 04/29/2008, -4/+13It wasn't his fault he got stabbed first.... Or, maybe it was.
But you were right, bound to happen... - JavertHolmes, on 04/29/2008, -0/+9The irony police have been alerted to your usage of the word and will be arriving shortly. Please remain in the vicinity until scolded and formally released.
- CTK14A, on 04/30/2008, -0/+9I had some fat slob next to me with her (maybe?) 12 year old son on line at Gamestop last night. The KID stank like cigarettes. It was past midnight on a schoolnight, it was cold and raining, and he was only wearing shorts and a t-shirt...
Grand Theft Auto has nothing to do with ***** parenting. ***** parenting is ***** parenting, no matter how many kids play this game. - JavertHolmes, on 04/29/2008, -3/+111) User finds press release titled "Duke Nukem gone gold and to ship in two weeks" in some dusty, nondescript corner of the 3d realms site.
2) User says "you've gotta be ***** me."
3) User checks for April 01 release date on press release, can't believe it's real.
4) User regurgitates press release elsewhere asking for confirmation, making it readable to many more eyes.
5) Repeat 1-4 for larger and larger amounts of people until the earth collapses in on itself from the force of billions of voices saying "you've gotta be ***** me" simultaneously after checking the date of the press release. - tidu, on 04/29/2008, -0/+8My life for Aiur
- AtiimKiambu, on 04/29/2008, -0/+8I like how it says that the victim went home to get a kitchen knife to get revenge. That, combined with the quote about how you have to finish people off, makes me doubt the journalistic integrity of the Daily Mail. As if I needed another reason.
- CWise, on 04/29/2008, -1/+9"Shocked fellow gamers - including young children - initially thought the stabbing was part of a stunt put on by shop bosses to whip up excitement about the title's release."
What's wrong with this sentence? Seriously, WTF - Tony_42, on 04/29/2008, -0/+8Maybe it was a pre-order bonus?
- Hobbes24, on 04/29/2008, -1/+8this is a job for the highly credible FOX news!

/sarcasm - JavertHolmes, on 04/29/2008, -2/+9I'm surprised he stabbed someone right away. Shouldn't he have jumped on the roof of every nearby building first to check for hidden suitcases? Then checked for horseshoes hidden in dumpsters? Then checked for a bunch of hidden items in the water? Then did 20 pizza delivery assignments? Then did some circuit racing? Then did some BMX racing? Then found 6 women to date? *Then* stabbed someone?
