LINK TO STORY:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/u...h-yorkshire-14350216 I like to play video games every once in awhile, when I don't have anything better to do. But some people make a lifestyle out of it. Well, as the story above illustrates, that lifestyle can kill you.
The moral of the story: get your butt off the couch and do something!

There is a natural advantage to PC gaming. After many hours of gaming there is bound to be a crash, lockup, disconnect or something else that will force a break in the gaming.

he died from a blood clot, right? You can get e'm from sitting for too long. Long Flights. Bus rides. That reporter got one during the war, right? You usually move around at least a little when ya sleep, also, you aren't sitting down either...

"A man whose son died after INSERT ACTIVITY for long periods is campaigning for greater awareness of the risk posed by their excessive use." Anything is bad in excess people, this isn't new. ~ Derek
