Just what the gaming world needs: another kid who takes gaming way too seriously. Plus, it's all caught on video. Sure, this kid is playing a WoW tournament and it's probably for high stakes (at least in their mind), but this is probably par for the course. I could go on and on about this, but I would rather have the Destructoid community scold this spoiled nitwit.
There is one thing that bothers me. Did you notice that no one witnessing this bothered to intervene? Call them nerds if you want, but they can't all be wimps.
That kid is a douche but the other one doesn't help by constantly saying, "Calm down." That always pisses people off even more. Whatever the case, once gaming gets to that point it's no longer fun. Sad.
I just hope this kid has good parents. You know, the kind who are tech/gaming savy enough to come across this vid on their own or have been told by someone to watch this vid. The parents become embarrassed and in turn, make very clear to their kid that he has publicly embarrassed himself and will have to live with the humiliation of seeing himself made an example of for years to come.
Obviously too old to be spanked and probably just old enough that he wouldn't take being grounded seriously.
...I just hope their not the type of parents who put their child in the "time out corner" -- I'd smacked the parents first.

Done. Moving on...
Just for good measure.
reminds me of the same dumb
who I pwn in the first halo tourney I ever won
I agree it drives me more berserk when people tell me to "calm down". It just trips something in people.
That being said, the kid was being a massive douche.
