Robbers steal PS3 and 360 units from GameStop Elk Grove

To quote from those lovely South Park kids… “YOU B***ARDS!”

And then we go back to being dumbfounded at just about how much violence has been going on, thanks and no thanks to Sony‘s Dark Lord, the Playstation 3.

But really, we find it rather sad that people have been getting hurt in the process of just acquiring a new gaming console. Whatever happened to the days when all this used to be fun, and not dangerous? There have already been reports of a riot at Wal-Mart, a commotion at the Japanese launch in Tokyo, some guys who got mugged while waiting in line, and a drive-by shooting incident which, fortunately, involved a BB gun and not real bullets.

And now, we have this. According to a news report from ABC’s News10, two gunmen took four Xbox 360s and four PS3s from the GameStop branch at Elk Grove. The suspects demanded the consoles from the store employees at gunpoint before taking off and escaping. Other stores in the area which are also scheduled to sell the console have been warned about the incident and have been told to watch out for anything suspicious.

So, out of the two hundred people lining up outside of your doorstep, how do you find the “suspicious” one?

Again, whatever happened to the time when games were fun and not life-threatening?
