You have got to be kidding? That is ridiculous. At least I know with my husband and kids to keep me distracted, I would never have to worry about that. But, even if I did not have them, I could not see killing myself over a game.

I read the story of the guy in like.. 7th grade. I've graduated now, I can't remember the source. I remember my teacher reading the article to us in class.

Well.. you can't go 3 days without water, about 3 weeks without food, and 1 week without sleep(so I've read). But the sleep thing varies..
If someone didn't sleep, eat, or go to the bathroom, I'd guess they'd last about a week before something serious happening to them.

Okay, seriously, that is just sad. No game is worth all that. Even on the weekends when it seems like I am on all day long, I am afk a good bit doing laundry, cleaning house, or chasing kids out of trouble. I have never sat in front of a computer that long and cannot see not eating, sleeping, or going to the bathroom. I mean come on, once again, I say that is just sad!!!!

Aside from the two articles Yosei posted, i'd say most of the stories you hear about people dying are just urban legends. Sure does make you wonder though... maybe i should get a dog or some plants or something... lol

Well, you have to admit that playing MMOs non-stop is unhealthy either way. Those who are addicted to that extent are as good as 'dead' anyway... as they will no longer be communicating with "real" people.
I won't be surprised about the whole killing themselves part though. I've heard that kids have murdered even their own parents influenced by video games.
