Man Dies From...Gaming?

No post in three days!?! I know, I'm just lazy...but you will have to get used to it. Instead of a ton every day, expect a pretty good amount every few days. With school starting back up, I just don't have the time! (Segway of the year!) Of course, I could just quit school, like this guy quit his job, and die from playing too many video games. And I'm completely serious, too.

"A South Korean man who played computer games for 50 hours almost non-stop died of heart failure minutes after finishing his mammoth session in an Internet cafe, authorities said on Tuesday.

The 28-year-old man, identified only by his family name Lee, had been playing online battle simulation (editor: I am guessing something like Battlefield 1942 or Counter Strike) games at the cybercafe in the southeastern city of Taegu, police said.

Lee had planted himself in front of a computer monitor to play on-line games on August 3. He only left the spot over the next three days to go to the toilet and take brief naps on a makeshift bed, they said.

"We presume the cause of was heart failure stemming from exhaustion," a Taegu provincial police official said by telephone.

Lee had recently quit his job to spend more time playing games." Full Article
