    Teen Dies After 40 Hour Diablo III Marathon

    Listen up kids, teens, adults, anybody who plays games really: Stop. Being. Stupid. An 18-year old gamer from Taiwan died after a near two-day marathon of playing Diablo III.

    The 18-year old booked a private room at an Internet cafe and proceeded to play Diablo III for almost two days without eating.


    An attendant entered the room and found Chuang resting on a table. After the attendant woke him, he stood, took a few steps and then collapsed, the report said. He was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at a local hospital.


    There are always a few of these reported on each year and yet people still don't learn. Take breaks. Stretch. Socialize without the use of a keyboard. Eat. Sleep. These aren't hard things to do!

    It's kind of ironic, he spent all that time and energy getting the best of weapons and armor, only to die in the end with no respawn option.
