    I would have to say that it makes me wonder why anyone would even consider the possibility of a "Cool" factor dying from a video game addiction. Not possible to be cool in that regard. NOW if we're talking "Sex addiction" THAT'S a HELL of a cool ass way to go! LOL - Ken!

    I do not play many violent games. The extent of my violence is fable.

    Depends on the person, I am an avid gamer, play serveral hours a night...occasionally I will read or watch movies. Am I an addict? Girlfriends and a few others would say yes...but I don't believe so I just make time for gaming.

    With their logic, people who train for their sport several hours a day are sports addicts.

    When you choose not to eat anything for 40 hours or eat anything won't help, heck even move. He negated basic needs for the sake of the game. That was some will power though.

    People who get addicted usually have other mental issues that will lead to that sort of behavior. But no one will focus on it. All they will portray is how bad 'gaming' is because we have people who do this.

    Some people are too compulsive and don't know when to quit. Most do when they get tired or when they start losing from being too tired.
    No it would be cool to die peacefully of old age.

    Remember this guy played for almost 2 days straight. He didn't sleep, eat, drink, or even move in that time. MOST people are incapable for doing that due to instinct, duties and simple habit.

    I am somewhat addicted to Sodahead and to dating sites possibly.

    I still haven't figured out why SodaHead is addictive.
