A 15-year-old boy from Barrie, Ont. has run away from home after his parents banned him from playing Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
Brandon Crisp’s parents argued with the boy after claiming he was “obsessed” with Infinty Ward’s first-person-shooter. He was last seen riding from home on his black and yellow mountain bike on October 13. Because running away from your Xbox will help you to play it.
“Over the last couple of years, Brandon has become less involved in sports and extremely involved in ‘Call of Duty 4.’ They have found him waking up in the middle of the night playing it,” stated Sgt. Dave Goodbrand. “Since that day he left home and has not been seen.”
I’m not quite sure how one can become obsessed with CoD4 over the past couple of years, considering it was released last year, but whatever. I’m not the policeman here.
Police have been keeping tabs on Crisp’s Xbox Live Gamertag, but apparently he is yet to log onto Xbox Live. It’s obviously a tragedy he went missing — since he’s clearly missed the World at War beta.
