“Tony Hawk: RIDE is THE new way to play. It gives a whole new meaning to game night by allowing the entire family to challenge one another to competitions that are as fun to watch as they are to play,” said Rob Kostich, head of marketing, licensed products, Activision Publishing, Inc.<\/p>\n
“This is the game I’ve always wanted to make,” said legendary pro skater Tony Hawk. “The skateboard peripheral opens up a whole new level of interactivity and physicality, allowing players to control the action with their whole body. I can’t wait for everyone to jump on the board and ride.”
\nThe boy’s grandfather apparently blamed the videogame: “”Anthony was playing … on PlayStation when his friend came and stabbed him. My grandson died over a video game.”<\/p>\n
Quite how the game is to blame is anybody’s guess, but both the grandfather and the original news story say he was killed “over” it, despite there being no details as to how or why. Did Morales want to steal it? Did he ragequit violently? Nobody seems to know. But then, considering the fact that nobody knows if Morales was the boy’s cousin or just a family friend, I can’t be too surprised. <\/p>\n
In fact, there is so much wrong about this story I don’t know where to stand. First of all, what’s a 9-year-old boy doing with a 25-year-old “friend”? Second of all, why would you leave him in the care of someone who doesn’t “act right” on the streets, regardless of whether or not he “minded his manners”? Third of all, why in the blue Hell would you live in Harlem? <\/p>\n
