There’s a video after the break of a kid who can’t “get into” Modern Warfare 2, despite playing it for 17 consecutive hours.
He’s “upset”. We won’t spoil it for you. Take a look. Thanks, Simon.

Politicians and newspapers are gonna love this kid. Poster child for the damage to kids by videogames.
Seriously…. WTF m8. Get out the house.
No_PUDding said:
I’d love to think this is Shatner, post-banishment.
Anyway what a crazy. Yeah get out more, get a haircut, get some sleep, do some exercise and meet some people.
Armitage said:
Poor kid. Don’t think the game’s the issue. Maybe the walls, he doesn’t seem to like them.
17 hours though? I’d heard the game was very short.
25 hours is my record, Rome: Total War. I just felt like sleeping after that, though.
Johnny Cullen said:
12 hours is my record, but this was way back in 03 I think when I was 12 and played an NHL game I rented.
:/
Armitage said:
I win. Or lose, looking at it another way.
MasterChiefFenix said:
wrong answer, Redh3lix. i’m in teh house all day, so am I liek this kid? MATURITY. ANYWAYS, I was lul’ing when he started hitting the wall! so silly lol. This kid is Hollywood material.
Phoenixblight said:
14 hours on Chrono Cross eventually passed out while playing the game, woke up and my neck hurt like hell and I was still in battle. Good times.
DaMan said:
that’s probably fake, just like that video with a german kid going nuts about Unreal Tournament.
anyway, the longest I’ve played a game without a rest wasn’t more than 5-6 hours I think. well, maybe 8 at best.

Leave Modern Warfare 2 ALONE!!

Anyone seen his website? Jesus.

Lol. well, then it isn’t fake I guess.
No_PUDding said:
Jesus, Cullen, that is the scariest thing I ahve seen ever.
The ‘My Popular Life’ page indicates some proper resentment killer potential.
The sort of kid who takes a gun to school and kills his math teacher.
Mad-elph said:
I have to admit that I played from 5pm till noon the next day on release day, just cause I was enjoying it. I noticed it was late when the sun was coming up but I must have gotten another wind… anyway I did not turn out like this kid, use discretion when playing though. You could be the poor sap who kills this kid that one last time that makes him break. But honestly so many little kids are playing this game. I asked the kid how old he was and he said 11. I believe him because his voice sounded like his balls haven;t dropped yet. The vid above is one reason games should be restricted to an appropriate audience.

That kid deserves a spanking with a willow branch. God I sound like my Grandmother. Still. Wow. What a piece of work.
Phoenixblight said:
Lack of parents obviously. THis is just another kid that is a product of unwilling parents.
Superfrog said:
Internet victim. Parents failed. That is your potential prototype school shooter. I still don’t get what exactly his problem with MW2 is (except that he obviously doesn’t like the weapon choice). Maybe he just got pwned over and over again in multiplayer?
Anyway, I’m glad he’s not German, otherwise the German anti-gaming press would get nuts over this video.
Btw, the dumbasses posting comments on Youtube are priceless: “Fucking PS3 fag. You wouldn’t get this shit on Xbox Live.”
daytripper said:
i cant understand what he’s saying most of the time, the lad lacks guidance or he is just a natural gobshite.
Hunam said:
On some of the lans I’ve been too me and my mates ended up playing CS for 18 hours or so on the first day. First of 5 days mind. But with Icewind Dale I think I did 3 14 hour days in a row.
Mental Fortitude +5 in my case I think.
No_PUDding said:
It’s fine very occasionally to play a game all day and night… Just not fine to react like this.
Indeed, no doubt clueless parents. Or none at all and a lack of guidance. I am not gonna have kids ever… NEVER.
Hunam said:
I have to say, when he pulled up the ps3 version there was no surprised in my heart.
DaMan said:
I just never could play for so long, I guess it’s because I play a game for as long as it’s exactly ‘fun’.. I mean, I could never get into stuff like WoW, or MMOs in general. games like that are more like some kind of an uh, hobby.

No_PUDding said:
I am with Hunam completely. The correlation between PS3 owners and this behaviour is pretty much a constant.
bravotangosix said:
Everybody seems to have skipped over the fact that MW2 is an 18 rated game and that this kid is far from 18, be that phyiscally or mentally. Children are not equiped to deal with too many mental pressures or strains. This child is a prime example of why we have a rating system and what happens when that rating system is ignored just to satisfy the demand he has put on his parents to buy him the latest games. Rules are there for adults, parents are supposed to be there for children. Where are the parents?
Talyis said:
Really come on only 17 hours, I hope this guy is not on my friends list if this vid really legit. I have played well over 17 hours straight on games like FF7, Beyond the Beyond, Rogue Galaxy, Lunar, Grandia, Suikoden, Disgaea and more. My buddy even played Counterstrike Source so long his nose started bleeding and he still kept playing I think his nose started bleeding at around 48 hours!
daytripper said:
@26 he’s19 not 9!
No_PUDding said:
bravotangosix, I don’t know what to say, I believe this generation has been broguht up on mature games.
Not one of my friends hadn’t played GTA3 when they were 12 or 13. And then each successive GTA, while underage.
I knew kids, who had played Manhunt when it came out, my age.
While it’s hypocritical of me to do my own backseat psycho-analysis and protest yours, it’s safe to say mine is way more general. And even then, I am comfortable saying mine is very likely not an accurate summation of the cause of his problems.

Waiting for the slow git to hurry the f**k up with the game so they can play it.

After watching that, he’s either a comic genius or needs serious psychological help.
DarkElfa said:
Well, thank god he’s British and not American, we have enough problems with wankers.
Robo_1 said:
I honestly don’t know what’s worse, the cringeworthy contents of the video, or the bile filled comments.
I mean people just openly telling him to go kill himself or make a suicide video next, mixed with a heap of comments on how ugly the poor kid is! The guy clearly has issues so I’d be very worried about firing off those sorts of comments at him.
Poor show all round really.
Psychotext said:
I think I played WoW for something like 24 hours straight once. I felt really, really ill by the end of it.

Holy hell!!
Have you got up to the I’m better than everyone page. Fuck me, there’s some proper amaze packed into that site!
Dralen said:
That was really really fucked up. When he started punching the wall my jaw almost fell off. Poor kid needs to sleep, I wouldn’t be surprised if the crazy van comes round to his house sooner or later.
Mike said:
My best is 64 straight hours on Championship Manager on the Amiga back in the early 90s.
Psychotext said:
I assume you mean with bouts of sleep… because I’m pretty certain after 64 hours of gaming without sleep you’d do some permanent damage to yourself.
(Not to mention that would have smashed the world record.
)

Can’t believe this would get posted here.. worst video ever.
DaMan said:
this is nothing compared to this guy – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSqDbfuUFYQ
Bulk Slash said:
Yeah, I’m dying a lot in the game as well. But I don’t film myself crying about it and put it on the internet. Maybe I should?
Dannybuoy said:
I did about 72 hours on and off with the flu, in bed, off work playing TLoZ Wind Waker when it came out. It was a strange experience. I’m not sure if the game made my flu better or worse. It sent me a little bit mad I’d say
Psychotext said:
I once watched nine months worth of Eastenders over a few days when my missus came back from working in Germany.
We were borderline suicidal by the end of it.

This guy needs some serious help…..

I watched the first five seasons of lost in one sitting. Then I had a psychotic episode.

I recently watched every season of the Sopranos over a week or so…
…and was confused by the ending.

Slam Da Brakes said:
I am assuming the poor lad is struggling with Spec Ops? He doesn’t explain why the game sucks. Perhaps he should consider using a walkthrough. After 17 hours (the game is quite short) he could have done with a couple of hints or so.
Please don’t let the tabloids get hold of this video. This lad could be end up being the turning point of this industry…

My longest was probably 14 hours, overnight on Illusion of Time on the SNES many, many years ago. I could barely function the next day, so I had a shower, then played for another 5.
