Like, dur. Swedish paper the Kvällsposten’s reporting that a 15 year-old boy collapsed and started convulsing after playing Wrath of the Lich King for 24 hours without a break this week.
His father’s now warning other parents of the dangers of not eating, sleeping and working hard at a computer for unnatural lengths of time.
