Gaming and moral panic

After our discussion in class yesterday about the impact of violent computer games on people's behaviour, I saw this in the metro this morning. Interesting that they chose to describe him as a tomb raider fan without explaining the connection or relevance of this piece of information. Is this trying to capitalise on the existing moral panic surrounding computer games after famous cases such as JamesBulger? What effect will this have on an audience?
