Yeap, hear these stories all the time when I'm back home in Asia. It really doesn't take much to stand up and walk around for a little bit.
Great. Another idiot that can be used as an example to urge parents worldwide to inform their kids about the evils of gaming and technology. Smh.
I think it's an XBOX related issue only. Otherwise we would have heard a case like this happening with a PS3. I think the Japanese have figured out a proper way to prevent unnecessary deaths from using their products.
I've had to take blood thinners and I'm not a fatty. anyways,the longest i've played a video game was when Ocarina of time came out.I played for eight hours straight.
I'm sure if the kid had to choose, this would be exactly the way he would go. It's like dying during intercourse to some people. You won't hear any kind of these things from Wii users, not because of all the unnecessary movements during gameplay, but because it's shyte that nobody could play it for more than 1 hour at a time tops.
