The deceased was your good friend. It appears you became angry with him because he broke your PlayStation." However he added: "The fact remains your friend lost his life, his family has lost the deceased and in particular his little girl has lost a father and you are responsible."
The court heard Mr McDonald had been at Stirling's flat on 10 August last year with another friend watching football on TV and drinking.
Mr McDonald had fallen asleep and Stirling was woken at 0400 GMT or 0500 GMT by a crash. It appeared that Mr McDonald has either stumbled into or knocked over the TV.
Defence counsel Mark Stewart QC said there had been some fear the computer would be damaged and an argument broke out.
During a struggle, Stirling got bitten and lost his temper and attacked the other man, Mr Stewart said.
He added that afterwards Stirling went to help Mr McDonald and later found him in the lobby where he thought he was still sleeping off the effects of drink.
He later carried his victim back to his upstairs flat in the same block and checked up on him.
Mr Stewart added: "It is extremely unfortunate that no one sought the medical attention which could have saved this man's life."

some people are obsessed with games consoles.:rolleyes:

I've heard stupider obsessions.

I think it was posted ages ago (might have been a different forum) but on some mmorpg which I can't remember, someone had got a special sword which he lent to his friend: the friend sold it on ebay for £600 and the guy stabbed his friend over 30 times in the face.

If anyone finds that article post it btw

Insane. It cost a lot of money, so what, he didn't have to kill his friend because of it.

There was a similar one, a man (if you can call him a man), killed his daughter because she knocked over an XBOX 360. He then killed her.

Some people are too obsessed.

If it was a PS3, it would still be under warranty and he could get it replaced.

Very sick.

Also, just read my post:

"There was a similar one, a man (if you can call him a man), killed his daughter because she knocked over an XBOX 360. He then killed her."

I say he killed her, then killed her again, he only killed her once. :X
