In a mall in eastern Japan a man had stabbed 8 random people causing seven to be severely injured and one to meet death on his way to the hospital.
The authorities said that violent crimes are rare in Japan that only the Yakuza crime syndicates perform them. Now street violence is up 4.6 percent since the start of 2007, according the National Police Agency's latest crime report.
The stabber was a winner in the Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball tournament a couple of years back. Japanese evening news have decided that the man learnt the humans weak point from playing fighting games such as Dead or Alive since most of the victims were stabbed in the neck.
According to the police, the stabber said:
I just wanted to see what it was like to kill. It could have been anyone.

I actually felt pity for the man who died...
In any case, eye for an eye, it would've been nice for someone to stab the moron back; "THIS IS WHAT IT FEELS LIKE, YOU SICK *bleep*"
What an awful way to die; some pathetic nutter testing out his knife. o__o
Anyway, what kind of DOA Beach Volleyball fan kills people? I'd much rather play the game, myself.
Also, you should put something game-related in the headline..at first I thought the news was misplaced.
Who needs a game to tell you that the stomach is easier to stab than, say, the knee?
LOL, noobz.
Normal people don't go about killing people just because they've done it on their Xbox.
