Everyone who had a creative mind and played a lot of FPSers has done or attempted to do this. This kid just did it too well it seems. Back when Duke Nukem was fun my ex-wife made a map of our apartment. Having a pole dancer in our kitchen was cool! I'd hate to be a kid in America today. http://www.click2houston.com/news/13245974/detail.html "Because of the violent nature of the game -- people killing people. The setting of the game was an exact replica of Clements High School," said Mary Ann Simpson, the Fort Bend Independent School District spokeswoman. "I think removing him was probably a good thing to do because we have no idea if he was actually going to come to school with a gun or something," student Maggie Berado said. "It doesn't sound like a joke to me. It sounds like he was into this fantasy of killing people in the school," parent Debbie Myers said. And this is in Texas, my home state, where they kill the mentally disabled. Don't all kids have gun racks in their trucks? I thought it was a new state law.
