Yes, again. More proof that MMO's should be outlawed!

A Chinese man dropped dead after playing Internet games for three consecutive days, state media said on Monday as China seeks to wean Internet addicts offline.

I have enough trouble making it through a 12 hour game session.

There are very, very few things I would want to do for three days straight without a break. As much as I enjoy gaming, I couldn't play for as long as that and it begs the question how he was able to? Surely his body would have required him to take breaks to refresh himself and he would have had to have got up to stretch.

Logically, I think there must have been another reason for his untimely demise.
