| Seems like every other day I find out about more people I know who play this... friends, co-workers, and clubbers alike. Hopefully I'll be able to check the game out myself this summer. I haven't played a game like this in years and have been reluctant because of how addicting they seem to be. :rolleyes: |

Has anyone seen that video of the group that crashed someone's WoW funeral and killed everyone there? Some reasonably popular WoW guy had died in real life and they wanted to give his character a proper burial in his honor. Now, I'm all for respecting the dead but having an online funeral is just ridiculous....
Here's the video:

Yeah I've seen that. And yeah an online funeral in a GAME no less is absurd. It was actually a girl who died and what's worse, her boyfriend logged onto her account as her character so that everyone could pay their respects ... to her character. People were actually pissed off that the funeral was raided. How incredibly detached.
I heard that in Korea someone hacked into some guys account and stole a sword of his ... in the game. So the guy who got his sword stolen tracked the thief down in REAL LIFE and stabbed him. Rediculous ... I bet that was the last sword he ever stole though haha :rolleyes: |

S Korean dies after games session
Online gaming is treated like a sport in South Korea
A South Korean man has died after reportedly playing an online computer game for 50 hours with few breaks.
The 28-year-old man collapsed after playing the game Starcraft at an internet cafe in the city of Taegu, according to South Korean authorities.
The man had not slept properly, and had eaten very little during his marathon session, said police.
Multi-player gaming in South Korea is extremely popular thanks to its fast and widespread broadband network.
Games are televised and professional players are treated, as well as paid, like sports stars.
Professional gamers there attract huge sums in sponsorship and can make more than $100,000 a year.
They are the types of games that completely engross the player. They are not games that you can play for 20 minutes and stop

The man, identified by his family name, Lee, started playing Starcraft on 3 August. He only paused playing to go to the toilet and for short periods of sleep, said the police.
"We presume the cause of death was heart failure stemming from exhaustion," a Taegu provincial police official told the Reuters news agency.
He was taken to hospital following his collapse, but died shortly after, according to the police. It is not known whether he suffered from any previous health conditions.
They added that he had recently been fired from his job because he kept missing work to play computer games.
