I heard the story of a gamer who sat in the same place playing WoW for so long that he actually died from a blood clot that made it to his brain. I know the story is likely BS, but at the same time... good for him. A: he died doing something he loved. B: his best friend now has a new computer (if he had any friends) and C: no more competition in the MMORPG from him.
Seriously, it is just stupid. I know what it is to be addicted to something. (recovering alcoholic) The least these guys could do is pick something that involves interaction with other people so there is a possibility of getting laid.:)
