These Do Not Make Me a Killer







Video games are often blamed for the violent outbursts of children, as are TV and movies. The first time I ever heard of video games being blamed for violence was a few years ago where in the UK, the game "Manhunt" was linked to the murder of Stefan Pakeerah, 14, by his friend Warren Leblanc, 17, on the 27 February 2004. Giselle Pakeerah, the victim's mother, claimed that Leblanc had been 'obsessed' with the game after he pleaded guilty in court, this was thought to be true due to the fashion in which he killed his friend being in line with one of the many methods used in game. I think we can all agree that this is an awful tragedy but back in 2003 when the game was released, I myself was only about 13 or 14 years old and I didn't kill any of my friends, so is it fair to blame the game? A new study suggests no.

World at War Map Pack 4: Where for Art Thou?

Call of Duty: World at War Nazi Zombies Banner

Well, if you read our post a while ago about Map Pack 4 for Call of Duty 5: World at War, you're probably currently making a face a bit like the guy in the banner above (when you get a moment, tell us how you got your eyes to glow like that, ok?). Well, despite the conspiracy theories and pure conjecture actually seeming like they had something to them other than wishful thinking, it seems that World at War Map Pack 4 is a myth.

Yes, as disappointing as it may be, Map Pack 4 is almost certainly not going to happen. Now, you might be holding onto that final glimmer of hope like it's going to save you from the zombie shown above, and you are welcome to do so, but we're putting our cards on the table right now and saying that, with it being so close to Modern Warfare 2's hugely anticipated release date and the simple fact that there is no word on Map Pack 4 anywhere, it's probably not happening.

You're welcome to keep that glimmer of hope about, though, we'd love to be wrong, DLC is great, so more DLC in the form of Map Pack 4 can only be greater. However, about now, we'd set our sites on Modern Warfare 2. So, instead of wishing for more maps, how about you play the maps you've already got extra hard? Give yourself that much-needed edge for when Modern Warfare 2 releases. We're all going to need it.
