Man dies after marathon online gaming session


Recommended Posts

Not like the game killed him...

 

 

But why didn't anyone notice a guy who's been sitting at a computer for three days straight not eating?

Beggars belief doesn't it, another guy died after a 50 hour gaming session, why would you do that to yourself ?

 

If this keeps up, games will come with another warning on the case, "Caution, this game may kill you".

Well..this isnt the first time ive heard of something like this...

 

there have been a few people taking the last train west after a marathon gaming session. As to why you wouldnt eat or drink....like common!!

 

Marathon Gamer- "UUuugh...so hungry" slaps face " Cant eat now..about to find Ancient Golden Coconut!"...keals over dead!

 

I know games can be addicting but for crying out loud, eat a cookie or something! :rolleyes:

50 hours? Wow...and I thought my 27 hour Final Fantasy VII binge was terrible :P Lots of coffee...oh man good times. No games these days can catch my attention like that anymore...or I'll just beat it in 27 hours :P

 

But yes, another reason to blame gaming on something...

27 hours ?

 

Strewth, ya beat me, thought I was bad enough with my occasional 12 hour stints, just pulled 10 hours tonight on Dead Space 2 which, even after all the hype will likely get cupboarded after I complete it and not played again.

 

Gonna have somat to scran and hit the hay.

I'll do a 12 once in awhile...depends on the game. I did it with The Witcher once because I was bored...sucks when you beat all your games...

 

 

Oh Skyrim...I won't be moving from my screen :P I told my boyfriend if the house is dirty or the dishes aren't done, I'll be playing Skyrim all day :P Brew up a few more pots of coffee than I normally do lol, I drink 3 pots a day already :P
