I wasn't at all surprised by this news, just saddened.

Diablo 3 is not fun enough to play for 40 hours straight; this man died a meaningless death.

pussy, CS:S players go 3-5 days straight without a break before dieing xD

Seriously though, is a really sad situation

My condolences go out to the guy's family


And guys that want to play HardCore - your body is Your fined tuned weapon in the Battles ahead

Look at Pro Gamers like Fatal1ty - they does lots physical training and eat healthy diets to make sure they get Every advantage possible in their game!

Play Right to Win ;)

[citation][nom]kimyeang88[/nom]wow.......... play game without food? don't feel hungry at all?......... He is not human lol[/citation]

actually i don't feel any other need when playing something i enjoy. Went without food for almost two days when i was playing Skyrim / Sacred / X3:TC and the weird part is that i didn't even notice/feet i was hungry. Guess video games are a good way to save money for the 660 Ti.

WTF? 40 hours of gaming can't kill a guy.

If it did, my roommate who drank a case of Monster and stayed up for 3 days to be the first guy on his server to hit level 70 on WOW when their first expansion came out would've died years ago.

Seriously, a man can go 40 hours without water--so how can gaming without food be the culprit? No, this guy had a heart attack or was already dying of malnutrition or something.
