Man dies after 50 hours of computer games
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 games at the cybercafe in the southeastern city of Taegu, police said. Lee had planted himself in front of a computer monitor to play online 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. # posted by masquerader @ 18:42 ::
