Strange case indeed. I've heard of many cases of death blamed on gaming, but this one makes me think. Should I actually stop gaming over 20 hours straight?

Wow, what a moron...oh well, at least he died happy. ;)

[Blonde799]

Very moronic, but this guy was glued to the thing, like he was addicted. He was also unemployed. This raises quite a few questions. :reading: I guess this means some people will have to repress their current habits.

86 hour gaming marathon?!? That poor guy.

[Blonde799]

I wonder what he was playing to keep his eyes on the tube? BMX XXX maybe?

[zables]

thats a long time to be staring at a monitor.... even on LCD 8-9 hours becomes unbearable... let alone 86, thats poor poor man...

[EWild]

I can barely go 24 hours staring at a screen. But 86, woah, what a guy. :)

How does he do it??? :eek: I mean, playing video games 86 hours WITHOUT sleeping or eating??? :odd: Freaky.:eek:

[Blonde799]

Freaky indeed(that word's gotta stop comin out my mouth^-^).
Maybe it tried to get him to go to the dark side, and he refused......? I mean, one could play games for so long, and then think about donuts or something. This story does have it's moral though.

"Gaming CAN be addictive, and if you can't control your addiction, somebody will have to........And I don't think anyone wants to know who."

Well, if you gatta go, that would be my perfered method. Still, that's over 3 days straight. Won on earth (besides him) can go for over 3 days without food or sleep? That's some stamina. They have to do what they do in bars and say " I think you've had enough." I wonder what game he was playing?

that's peculiar, I've heard of peole needing a life, but this is an extreme.
