I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be a Wii.

Ok a few things don't make sense:

1) I thought the xbox was the kill and harm people and backstab your parents box

And 2) wth is a 20 year old doing in a young offender's jail?

Also, LOL @ 16yo being illiterate.. I thought that was almost unheard of?

Usually, they have a prior conviction while they are a juvenile... or they have different age ranges for their laws.

O RLY?

Inconistencies? The PS one says that the row was over a PS, and that conor STUMBLED away and later died in hospital. The xbox one says that conor RAN away and shortly after died in a field.

Perhaps Microsoft payed that news site to make things more dramatic? You know, so that people read the xbox version instead
/joke

The very fact that both articles mention a different console is a case for concern; which console did they actually have a row over?

There are two things that make me laugh about these two articles:
1) The boy is illiterate at such an age as 16
2) The boy hit conor on the head with a beer can. --> ?? Wouldn't a brick have been more effecient?

In any case, this is nothing new, what with the reported shootings that happened in busy queues soon after the US launch of the PS3.
