Ok, this is kind of intense, and it doesn't show much.

 

at the end of the video it says "controller disconnected." 

that's for damn sure.

Who takes a gun to a video game competition? 

that was one of my first thoughts when i heard this. how loose are your screws if you think you need to be strapped to go to something like this.

i guess we now need to start having metal detectors at video game contests.

From what I heard, he didn't have it on him when he first went into the competition. When he lost, he went out to his car and got it.

Players have always armed themselves in gaming competitions.

You'd be surprised at how many of these types are out there.  I've encountered a few unhinged while playing online games.  And while I've never heard f straight shootings.  I've heard of hackings and stalkings.  With plenty of death threats acting big behind a keyboard annonymously.  Hey kind of like a forum I visit.

suddenly Pop Warner football doesn't seem so bad, eh?

Online gaming is extremely toxic.  And it escalates as it becomes more competitive.  Wasn’t it within the last year that someone did one of those gunman on the loose calls to the police on some dude he was gaming against ? 

People are nuts.

Yeah.  The police shot the guy dead, and it turned out to be a hoax.

Didn't the police go to the wrong house, the dead guy wasn't even the target

[UndertheHalo]

[Lou]

I won't let my daughter play with a mic for that very reason. Lots of idiots out there

[Jason]

So this guys kills 2 at video game tournament. How many died in Chicago this weekend? Why is this incident a national story?

That's a disengenuous argument.

Probably a good call.  For most games it’s not necessary anyway.  Mic is usually only needed if you’re playing with a friend or something.

That's horrifying. Glad an arrest has been made at least.

 

Now excuse me while i go attend the white lives matter rally that is no doubt occurring as a result of this.

[Adam]

Dude probably should've called a wide nano blitz instead of cover 3. These deaths could've been avoided

You can go to that rally, but only if you're done with your keynote at the "Let's Make Stupid As F@&$ Posts On The Internet" rally in the convention hall room next door.
