| Wow! What a dumbass! Pardon my language, but seriously! Quitting his job just to spend more times on the computer is crazy, but spending 50 hours nonstop is just stupid! Was he even eating? Jeez! Well... Its ashame it turned out like this, though. It seems a little weird that he died... People can usually survive longer under extremes like this. He could've just fainted or something... |

| Heart fKitten Yiffer at 28 from playing games? I don't see how that's possible. Especially when he was napping and I assume eating, at the cafe. Exhaustion probably did happen, but it wouldn't kill him. Maybe something else was going on with him. Or this isn't real. Seriously. | |||

Pffft, 50 hours, is that all? I could do that if I REALLY wanted to as long as I was fed. And lack of ANYTHING for two days, whether it be food, drink, or sleep, still shouldn't kill you. What a weakling.  EDIT: Okay, maybe lack of AIR for two days might kill you, but as I see this guy had plenty.

Wow..that's sad. I think a few more things were wrong with him. He could have lasted longer. Maybe he just had a horrible diet or something and it caught up to him  |

| Seems that he didn't even eat. The article says that he only took brief breaks to go to the bathroom and take quick naps. It doesn't mention anything about taking a break for food or drink. Maybe that's another factor in his heart fKitten Yiffer? |

Yeah, that's the most likely cause of the death. He must have really loved his games . I couldn't have played that many hours of them at once  |

| Korean or Chinese since they're really starting to get into online gaming as well. I'm going to call "other factors" as a cause of the death. Maybe he didn't have a great heart to begin with and it just crapped out as a result of the stress. |

| Maybe it was some huge Starcraft tournament wich he won. That would mean he died out of excitement. What a sad, sad population. |

Originally posted by MarioMaster Nice irony there, slick. I commented on this at Xeogaming, but here it is again: I know someone's gonna blame the game for this. Someone, somewhere is working on it right now. |

| Oh, he didn't have a life but lots of people don't have lives and still manage to survive. Shocking, I know. |
