Tragic story from Russia: A 14 year old boy kills his sleeping father with a sledgehammer after his parents took away his keyboard because he was spending too much time gaming. After he killed his father, he made his mother give him back the keyboard so he could game some more. His mother called relatives after the boy finally fell asleep. The boy, a resident of Tuapse, a town in the Krasnodar district is faced with a 10 year sentence.

“On the evening before the murder my brother was behaving as usual, speaking little and playing on his phone”, says the 25-year-old sister of the young murderer. “Then he watched some comedy on TV with my father. He kept on asking when we would all go to bed.” Before everyone left for bed, mother and father said to their son that he was not to play on the computer again that night. It was when Yaroslav began to protest that his mother was forced to remove the keyboard from the computer and hide it in her room. The boy made as if he had accepted the decision and went to bed. Then in the dead of night the teenager decided to deal with his “wrongdoers”. Taking a sledge hammer, he crept into his parents’ bedroom and attacked his father right there in his bed. “The teenager delivered the blows through a plastic bag, prepared in advance in order to prevent himself being splashed with blood”, explained the investigating officer Boris Frolov. “He admits to having planned at first to murder his mother, but then feared he would not be able to deal with his father”. via: http://english.pravda.ru/hotspots/crimes/16-04-2010/113053-computer_game-0

After getting the keyboard back the boy continued to play the game "Gothic", which has a correspondingly sinister plot: the characters of the quest fight with the aid of various kinds of weapons – axes, clubs, hammers, swords, and so on.
