Boy Arrested For Writing PS3 Sucks On Video Game Cases

After checking on a young man lingering in the back corner of the Anderson, S.C. Toys"R"Us video game section employees found the work of a 13 year old Playstation hater.

The Young man had used a permanent black marker to write, "PS3 Sucks" on 23 plastic security cases used to protect the Sony Playstation games from being stolen from the "R" Zone section of the store. The Young man was held until police arrived. After his parents were unable to be reached he was taken to child services.

Glad this kid got what was coming to him. It's just too bad there's a cloud of hate preventing him from playing all the consoles' great games.

ddldave6122d ago

this is a good example of the immaturity of 360 fanboys.

highps36122d ago

While not all 360 fans are the same; the ast majority seems to be borderline retarded. If you like to rgue go look at "The Marts" past posting history. Case closed.

He got what he deserved. Don't tag, especially when you are tagging something as lame as "Ps3 Sucks"... lol dork...

ps3 fans are sometimes retarded too look at bill gates and aquaviva

sticky doja6122d ago

Have you seen Bill Gates posts? AHHHHAHAHAHAH

Razzy6122d ago

Hey highps3, how do we know it wasn't the Mart? Isn't he a "13 year old Playstation hater"? ;)

MikeGdaGod6122d ago

thats the same thing i was thinkin

AngryTypingGuy6122d ago

is like saying that all Sony fans look like this...

NewZealander6122d ago

this is an example of all immature fanboys, there are just as much ps3fanboys out there who would do the same to xbox games. just happens that this is a xbox fan.

Daishi6121d ago

No one has pointed out the fact that the kid was alone in the PS3 section long enough to right PS3 sucks with a marker 23 times. Another part was it took them so long to realize that hey a kid was looking at PS3 stuff something is off here. And finaly it was so easy to spot the kid because he had been the only one there since a few weeks after the price drop!

InMyOpinion6121d ago

If Sony fanboys knew how to spell they would do the same thing.

nasim, achira, aquaviva, THE PRITCHARD, Bill Gates, BigMac573, the list goes on and on and on...

i don't think so, don't approve it

jackfatal6122d ago

its gamespot! go there! they will give u the fancy x360 news!!

Real Gambler6122d ago

C'mon, it's not the greatest news, but it is sadly worthy... There's nothing wrong being a fan for sure, but being brainwashed is really scary!
I've learn a lot, by reading posts between 360, Wii, PS3 fans bashing each other. But sadly, there's a small bunch of kids who are in it just for stirring things up. They just cut and paste the same junk over and over. Until now, I sometime thought they didn't even bought a console at all!
But today, seeing a 13 years old doing this, claiming he was bored with his xbox, is really really sad. This is brainwashed to the fullest! How many of those poor kids are outhere?
Like I said, until now, I thought fanboy war was ok because they would throw specifications, polygons, hard disk space, hdmi stuff at each other, so today, anybody who's buying a console would know more about what he is buying. But now, it seem like only the first line get into kid's brain... Sony suck because... (ooops, brain disconnected, too many line to read), xbox bl.ws because... (oooops, brain shutdown).
Poor kid.

Still, if you break something in a store you have to buy it... They should make hime buy all the PS3 games as a lesson : )

nice_cuppa6122d ago

all the kids i know would love either a ps3 or a 360.

this sounds like the work of a nintendo fanboy.

Kratosnake6122d ago

thats funny...

1. writing "ps3 sucks" makes ps3 fans angry
2. saying he owns a 360:
a. makes 360 fans angry at him for the immature action
b. proves to ps3 fans that xbox fans are immature
3. leaving the floor clean (except maybe blood stains) for the Wii/DS..

hehe.. brilliant kid! (not really)

It shows how EXTREMISTS are the XBOTS

Ugly American6122d ago

Says the guy calling people Xbots... nice.

Whoooop6122d ago

Like calling people xbots (which I don't) is as extremist as going around retails writing PS3 Sucks on video game cases.

be real.

Ugly American6122d ago

Not sure why you are defending the actions of the fanboys, but the same people who have to stoop to calling people Xbots for playing a different console are exactly the same people who take THAT kind of action in the real world. It may not have the same magnitude of extremism, but on a website, it may as well have.

Microsoft once tried to nab LittleBigPlanet from Sony after a few drinks

It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.

Microsoft had a good idea but fumbled it again.

Cacabunga5d ago (Edited 5d ago )

Project Spark idea was decent but they quickly gave up ..
LBP was wonderful

ApocalypseShadow5d ago

Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.
https://www.playstationlife...

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.

They're scum.

Zachmo1825d ago

Microsoft didn't force MLB on Xbox. MLB gave Sony 2 options either go multiplat or risk losing the license.

Rynxie4d ago

And why do you think MLB said that? I believe Ms approached MLB.

ApocalypseShadow4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

Totally ridiculous comment.

The only exclusivity Sony had was to their own creation of The Show. Microsoft could have paid the MLB for the license just like Sony did and made their own baseball game.

Microsoft instead, groomed MLB for years in trying to poach Sony's game and bring it to Xbox. They're worth 3 TRILLION dollars. You think that's not enough money to make their own baseball game? Don't be delusional.

Microsoft spun it like they always do and told the media that they had to trust Sony with their hardware. After they put Sony in that position of not having a choice. Either go multiplatform or stop making one of their successful games. That's a no win scenario.

And what did Microsoft do? They didn't try to sell the game to the Xbox community. They put it on game pass to hurt Sony. Pushing the idea of why buy games that are $70 when you can play them in their cheap service for $10. It was a dirty tactic.

You fell for the Kool aid drink Microsoft served you instead of spitting it out. Hope it tasted good because you were fooled by Phil and the gang.

Xbox executive Sara Bond has told Axios that Microsoft spent a number of years trying to get MLB The Show onto Xbox consoles. And when it finally succeeded in breaking off PlayStation’s long-held exclusivity, the company had to “trust” Sony with pre-release Xbox Series X/S consoles.

Bond revealed that MLB The Show “always came up” in conversations between Microsoft and the Major League Baseball organization. “We always said, ‘We love this game. It would be a huge opportunity to bring it to Xbox.'” she recalled. However, when Microsoft’s efforts materialized, it put the company in an awkward situation where it had to send in pre-release consoles to a rival company.

Lying to yourself is unbecoming.

Article link tells you all you need to know in Sarah Bond's own words.

Hereandthere4d ago

They were too cheap/inept/lazy to develop their own mlb game, so they port begged for years and bribed the mlb to make the show multiplatform. Like i said many times, xbox brought nothing to the table their 24 years, ZERO.

ApocalypseShadow3d ago

At least you and others get it. Note drank the Kool aid and asked for seconds thinking it was refreshing.

Most don't even know how it all played out but it's there in black and white for all to see. Microsoft brought it up for years until the MLB forced Sony's hand. It was a win win for Microsoft. Kill one reason to buy a PlayStation or kill the game by dropping it in a cheap service to kill Sony's sales numbers on PlayStation.

"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."

Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.

Cockney3d ago

They chose well, Sony gave them the backing to pursue their dreams with no restrictions even tho their games especially dreams have very niche appeal. Media molecule and Sony deserve respect for this in an age of risk averse publishing.

RNTody5d ago (Edited 5d ago )

Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.

But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?

Inverno5d ago

Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.

Inverno5d ago

They shut down the servers, that's millions of user created levels gone. That and dead are pretty much the same, it's also been years since 3 and they cancelled HUB soooo.

fsfsxii4d ago

They shutdown the servers because no one was playing, no one in the community cared about the user created levels so why keep them up? Wtf you guys would never succeed in running a business.

Inverno4d ago

Yea dood no one was playing so they shut off the servers. Cause people with enough common sense can't just Google why they were actually shut of, right?
