SEOUL (Reuters) - 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 Tuesday.

The 28-year-old man, identified only by his family name Lee, had been playing on-line 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 on-line games on Aug. 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.

I guess the key is to try and keep it around 49 hours...

Now the question I have is what game was he playing?

What a way to go.Must have been a very addictive game.

I think it is best to take a break every once in a while no matter how intense the game is.It's unfortunate nobody told this poor fellow this.

Its been awhile since I had a good online war game. I was very addicted to SOF2 and also liked Return to Castle Wolfenstein (WW2 sure was fun, storming the beach was kick ass!) . Whats the best war game out now? I like capture the flag the most if that helps, any suggestions?

There have been a few times Ive been surprised really bad and felt my heart hit the front of my chest.

How about A ZP squad ( I hate clan!) to kick some fannys?

Ah damn, and I thought my 24 hours of gaming once before was pretty hardcore. Suppose it's not too hard to believe.

That's awesome.

Now if he had a clone, the clone could played the games for him while he watches and takes breaks.

Digital Bliss · August 10th, 2005, 08:52 AM

I am not mad I just want to know what happened to my post? I made a tread about this and its in here why?

U probably made a thread after there already was one on the same subject and a mod merged the two threads.
