He probably got so caught up in it that when he died on the computer he died in real life, kinda like in the matrix

He was only playing for 5 hours and he died? What a wuss!

This is actually the third reported death due to extended gaming. The first one remains the most impressive, as reports stated that he'd been playing for something like 80 hours straight before collapsing in the bathroom of the net cafe.

I doubt Shadow's going to keel over from playing D2, since she goes and works and presumably sleeps from time to time?
