Did they interview the kid and did the kid say, "He got what he deserved for not buying me a Playstation?"
I'm having a hard time finding the link between Playstation and murder, here. Was there somebody present that witnessed this kid hold his father at gunpoint yelling, "It only does EVERYTHING!"? I read the article and it's not very detailed. A very irresponsible parent left a gun where a four year old could reach it. That's the problem. Even if he had purchased the kid a Playstation, the odds are pretty good that leaving a gun where the kid could reach it would end up with somebody being shot.
When I was a kid, anything that was shaped like a letter "L" was instantly an imaginary gun. The first thing I did with my imaginary gun would be to point it at something/somebody and shoot. This kid got his hands on his father's real gun. The end result was inevitable.
