Three consecutive days of internet gaming were the cause of death for a 30 year old Chinese man. If it really is true that exhaustion from gaming was the cause of death, and not a pre-existing condition, you have to wonder how someones onine life can be so disconnected from their real life that they lose track of basic human needs. We have never heard of anything like this happening as a result of reading books or watching TV.
