I know the guy was jobless, but seriously even a jobless person should have something better to do than being on the comp for 86 hours or whatever it said. I consider being on the computer for 4 hours a day a lot (ie, 4 hours of actual staring at the screen straight use, not checking on and off).

Oh well, maybe a new form of suicide has arisen. Death by gaming.

What I think is that this guy was too depressed about something else in his life that he used the PC as a drug, to escape from his awful reality. He played and played and played, oblivious to anything else, until his body couldn't take it anymore and collapsed on the spot.
