Final Fantasy XIII on Xbox 360 Causes Suicide?

Many of us have been severly let down by Square-Enix after their announcement that Final Fantasy XIII would be seeing a release on Xbox 360 but I doubt any of us have been hit as hard as this. Apparently a GameFAQs member has been contemplating suicide after this announcement.

The member "pie185" was soo affected by Square-Enix's choice that he posted a suicide note on the GameFAQs forum in which he told everyone what an affect the Final Fantasy series has had on his life. According to the rumor, the member has killed himself and hasn't logged in since. I haven't been able to find the post myself but our forum member Moklin, has a screenshot of it from YTMND.

I haven't seen the post myself but I still really doubt there is any truth to it. If it is a joke and he really wanted it to get out then I guess it worked. Although if he really did commit suicide, he's the ultimate moron and Square-Enix has more than their fans betrayal to be sorry for.
I don't think I want to click the link and read it for moral reasons, but if this is true (and this is GameFAQs we're talking about here, so take it at face value), then my God, I hope SOMEONE stopped him. NOTHING is worth doing that, ESPECIALLY over just a game. Even though from what I read, the kid had some type of autism that really fucked up his mind (can't confirm that, though).

Seriously, we can discuss who is a fanboy for who all we want, but this is not a fanboy act. This is just a cowardly act anyway you slice it.
