The high-profile Florida murder trial branded by the mainstream media as the "Xbox slayings" began today in St. Augustine. It was relocated there after officials decided that the Central Florida town of Deltona, where the murders occurred, would not be able to handle the media attention, which has focused on both the lurid nature of the crime and the fact it was apparently committed over a game console.

While most media reports have focused on the Xbox connection to the mass murder, few have outlined Victorino's extensive criminal history. According to the Associated Press, Victorino spent eight of the last 11 years in prison and was on probation when he allegedly committed the murders. Since he was first arrested for grand theft auto at 15, he has been convicted of a string of violent crimes, including arson, burglary, theft, and assault and battery.

Victorino and his associates are accused of taking the lives of Erin Belanger, 22, Michelle Nathan, 19, Francisco Ayo-Roman, 30, Anthony Vega, 34, Roberto Gonzales, 28, and Jonathan Gleason, 17, in August 2004. The trio, along with Robert Cannon, 19, allegedly beat and stabbed the victims to death after Belanger took an Xbox from the house where Victorino had been squatting.

Wow, I had no idea that Xbox is so good that it is worth killing seven people. That makes me wonder just how many people will PS3 be worth killing for. 14? Rocked Over

That's not what Jack Thompson thinks! How could Microsoft be so callous as to distribute such a weapon of mass murder under the guise of an entertainment system!

Agreed. The punk would have killed over a roll of toilet paper if someone he didn't like got to the bathroom first.

Damn, you're an idiot. Right now Sony fucking sucks in the console industry. It costs $700 to get it, and not to mention the other shitty features.

The Xbox 360 and Nintendo's Wii are going to destroy Sony.

Its like when the guys started filling the Hindenburg with hydrogen. Any bulb of sufficient wattage could see a bad moon on the horizon.

Some things don't need to take flight before the you know what will happen.

your right i havnt seen it, but compairing what will be better about ps3 than the xbox 360. the ps3 wins by far. cost shouldn't be a factor when buying a games comsole.
i have already pre-orderd one, i will tell you my compairson to it and the x-box 360.


i have yet to see a game on the x-box 360 that has smooth, realistic grafix.

also, i have heard rumors that the ps3 will be using linux, i think ubuntu so that will make it better than crappy, slow windows. the linux kernel can handle multitasking better and with a 3-core proccesser i think this will bring gaming to a whole new level.

I heard that a guy in California around the Bay Area killed a guy because of a piece of bread.... not exactly sure about the detail.
