- Terminal gaming (thanks JUDGECAL) reports "A Hong Kong computer game enthusiast has been found slumped dead at a terminal in a game centre after playing non-stop for hours." Unlike previous similar stories that described marathon gaming sessions, the now-dead gamer apparently expired after an approximately five hour Diablo II session...
- HTNetIRC is now taking their formerly-private IRC network public, which centers on a small community focused on creating and playing computer games...
I've played games for 72 hours straight before, so yes, hardcore gamers do exist.
When Fallout Tactics first came out, I played it non-stop for a FULL MONTH. I'd play in sessions about 32hours long, eat twice while playing, a couple quick restroom breaks, sleep for 8 hours, then another 32 hours straight playing (for a month!). EDIT: Oh yeah, I guess I showerd like 5 or 6 times that month...
And I'm not dead.
