OMG, a Diablo 3 gamer dies after playing 40 hrs straight

Postby Dr Frook » 19 Jul 2012, 03:03

"A Taiwanese teenager has collapsed and died at an internet cafe after playing the computer game Diablo 3 for 40 hours straight.

Officials say the 18-year-old booked a private room at the cafe in Tainan and did not emerge for nearly two days.

When an attendant checked on him, he stood up from the computer, took a few steps, and then collapsed.

Police say they believe long hours in a sedentary position created cardiovascular problems for the man."

no just happened. Old news is that it happened to a Korean guy a while back. Obviously, the taiwan guy didnt learn the lesson.

XD I agree with that half-way,I Play Big games but i do have my limits...The most i play games is for about 18,but i did stop to go to the restroom,and eat.Now Lack of sleep can be also as deadly.
