And all your hacks STILL suck? Geez. Then again, when you're hacking while being that tired, I'm not surprised.

I kid.

Anyway, yea, am I the only one who had the biggest laugh when I read that his mom called the internet cafe and asked them to tell her son to come home? xD

Geez. Quit his job to play games, lives in his mom's basement... probably a good thing he died (not to be evil or anything). He probably didn't have enough money to pay for the internet access at that cafe anyway.

You can bet that my parents was pointing out that article for me.

Even if i'm hardly like that. Hell, I don't play as much games as for five years ago. That's for sure.

As a computer science major who intends to go into the video game industry, this concerns me. I want my future products to be good, but not so addictive that the customers die. Its just not good for business.

I think the longest I've ever played a game for was five hours straight. Tales Of Symphonia....heh. After that I got a massive headache...ouch!

But yea, poor dude. 50 hours of playing is a little itsy bitsy over the top, don't you think?

This maybe caused by a hormonal problem to brain, Brain use different captor to
figure out If the body is sleeping or awake, this problem may occur by seening wacky ting in darkeness so the brain think your are dreaming and 50 hour must be enough for the brain to think that the body is dead so the brain stop sending message and the organe who depand of that is the hearth.there is a new alarm clock who use this by spreeding heavy light at a certain hour to wake-up people
In a less heavy way than sound,and the same thing that happen to kario happen to me I have deleted my poor level anyway

Wow 50 hours of gameing, just a bit crazy.

Then again it pales it comparison to my friend storm. He must play runescape non-stop.

I read somewhere that online gameing was more addictive then crack, starting to believe it now.

Nope. It was on Japanese News too.

I saw it right after when my friends slept over, which we stayed up for 24hours, and I freaked out.

That's both depressing and disturbing. I've been addicted to computer games sometimes, and even skipped a meal or two because of it. You have to be sure not to let a huge habit form.

Well, I heard about this at work. From what they told me, he could have died after using the bathroom.

One person said that this person played games for 50 hours and died, only with breaks to use the bathroom. Another person, who works at a hospital, says that when peeing, your blood pressure drops a lot. Maybe he had too high blood pressure and then went down too much?

May be a possibility. But hey, this is coming from my work. Who knows if this is right? I mean, everyone is a drunk there.

I have hear about a bathroom story, the guy died inside the toilette and there where no trace of murder or suicide, It was because of bleach inside the toilet, bleach cause no problem but when mixed with an acid It create a chimical bomb and...pee is acid

Hmm..I don't know..that sounds kinda off but could be possible. I don't know how that would work though . Your blood pressure drops when you pee? Yeah..I guess so..Isn't it good to have a low blood pressure though? I don't know how low it can be though..Because if it was high then I could see why he had that heart problem. Blah..I'm just confused now

The water would probably have to be 95% bleach or something like that in order for that to work.

IF that's true (I don't exactly keep up on chemistry-related matters), then the odds of it happening are extremely low.
