He camped for awhile and then used a cheat code when the boy pulled the knife.

If I were the dad, that whole console would be in the trash ... we'd be going Amish for a couple weeks.

Damn straight. What a disrespectful little punk. That's indicative of more problems than unplugging a video game.

I'll bet the dad thinks twice before doing that again.

hopefully the parents punish the child in such a way that it is the child who thinks twice before doing that again.

i want to know what you do to a kid for punishment whos ready to pull a knife out and take you on...kneecap him?

lol.
I remember how pissed I used to get when playing QII and having the power go out or get dumped out of the game on my lightning quick PII450. I laughed when I read that story, I think it's funny as hell.
