It seems like gaming for three straight days is the magic number when it comes to Asian people dying in internet cafes...

Thats too bad. And as much as it is the guy's fault, wtf were the owners of the cafe thinking? Three straight days? Someone should have done something.

We take this stuff for granted in the States, and we might hear some story like this and then the business would get, in most people's opinions, unjustly sued but the fact is if we didnt have these rules everyone would be dropping like flies in internet cafes.

China put melanonin or something in animal feed to provide false highs of nitrogen content...they put crap in their toothpaste. WTF, China, have some self control!

Three days...thats rediculous!

Nah, people can just up and die from exhaustion. I forgot exactly what its called, but you just dont get enough sleep and you exert yourself too much. Couple that with constant adrenaline rushes and (most likely) caffeinated beverages and you got a good recipe for dying.

I think it was stress caused by not enough to eat/drink, sitting in the same spot for days, no hygeine, and no sleep. I think these factors taken together were just too much stress on the body. He probably was also downing alot of caffine to stay away.

His body just gave out...

Not sure. When I was in Spain this summer you payed by the hour. Like 30 mins was 1.50 Euros and an hour would be 2.90 Euros or something like that. China problably works the same.

I really dont know wether to feel sorry for the guy or say "3 days in a row, thats pathetic". It seems that this is a recurring issue in China, they dont have self control when it comes to PC games

I seriously hope that was some kind of joke, if people are stupid enough not noticing when they are starting to die maybe they should just drop dead and not reproduce for the good of the world. I have only managed two straight days of gaming (lan) and was clearly exhousted when i went home .

It's a little more complex than that...

China would much rather let natural selection "naturally select" those who do not give back to the state in the way that China sees fit. China is a testing ground for population control...death is actually a good thing to them in a case like this.

Well, people can be stupid. Not only that, but people can also be severely mentally handicapped. For all we know this guy could have been living off of welfare and, instead of buying food, spent his money on games and internet use.

There are way too many variables, but it is not unbelievable imo.

Two straight days? That seems pretty extreme to me. I have never managed or felt the need to play for more than 8 or so hours straight, even when I was at the peak of my gaming addiction a few years ago...

YOu know, there's no info as to the guys health prior to his gaming binge session. This dude could have been like 300 pounds, with horrible health conditions. The binge could have only been the icing on the cake. But the news people know that the story will sell alot more if it's a game related death, rather then another bad health condition case, which wouldn't even make the news.

Well, that explains it I guess. I've never participated in any gaming tournament so I wouldn't know. My personal record (around 8 hours straight) was when I was playing civ3 (offline). That ''just one more turn..'' feeling you get with these games keeps you playing for hours on end.

I just can't imagine what game would hook someone bad enough to play for three straight days. Eventually I'd need to get up and have a beer or something.

agreed..i really dont feel sorry for this guy but it would be interesting to know what could keep him there for 3 days straight..longest ive played is like 16 hours of WoW straight lol...was fun :P...but yeah as for the guy dying..just another case of survival of the fittest and he was obviously not smart enough to survive...i hate all the bad media that gamers get and idiots like this guy make it worse for the rest of us

Wow I didnt think you could die if u play 3 days, I mean 3 days without sleep ok sleep deprivation you wont die, maybe he wasnt drinking any water, he could have gone 3 days without food easily, I dont know why he would die from playing a game that long.
