UK Newspaper The Sun Trolling Gamers

The Sun is just the absolutely lowest of the low when it comes to "journalism".

It really needs to die a death

Hey, now! The Sun has all the journalistic integrity of the Weekly World News and we need that in this world! WWN isn't around anymore, so we have to get our information from somewhere.

Good news! WWN is still available online. And is still as batshit insane as ever to boot. Possibly more so, if that's even possible

@c0kemusheen: Are you trying to emulate them?

The Sun is basically like The Onion, except without any trace of irony.

It amazes how well a mouse and keyboard can train me in the use of a handgun or rifle.

Easy access to guns don't kill people, video games do!

That is just dumb. Next thing you know the sun will be looking at other games for inspiration.

You know what guys, we all know this is dumb so let's make some silly possible gaming related Sun headlines. I'll start:

WEALTHY INDUSTRIALIST CONSIDERS BUILDING AN UNDERWATER PARADISE AFTER PLAYING VIDEOGAMES. -

Bioshock

PORTABLE GAME BLAMED FOR RECENT PRISON ESCAPES

Escape Plan

This is the greatest idea I've ever heard on these forums.

However, that whole Bioshock thing... well... someone has actually already starting trying to do something like it.

Lol, anyone notice the kid playing a "realistic wargame" is actually playing a racing game. The article is a total fail. I can't even understand some of it, Kid's fave? Is the writer a 12 year old?

I don't see what the problem is. So the terrorists are being trained to survive on their HUD telling them every single thing they need to do like they are a 5 year old?

I thing we'll be ok.

Ha, I noticed that also.

Since when does knowing how to press R1 in a game to shoot teach you how to shoot a gun in real life?
