Gaming Addiction Leads To Death

This is the second story that I know of in which gaming lead to a person dying. Sometimes you need to turn off the computer and go for a walk.

BEIJING, China (AP) -- A man in southern China appears to have died of exhaustion after a three-day Internet gaming binge, state media said Monday.

The 30-year-old man fainted at a cyber cafe in the city of Guangzhou Saturday afternoon after he had been playing games online for three days, the Beijing News reported.
