    I got on here, clicked on games, and played Stick RPG for 11 hours straight. Do I need a life? Am I that big of a loser to spend all day playing one minigame? I was supposed to go to my family reunion, oops. Oh well, I hope my family doesn't kill me. What's the longest you ever played a video game? I set a bunch of food and pop in front of me and played for about 36 hours once........

    Well I've done about 2-3 days straight (besides going to the bathroom and eating)
    But that was just on the pc period not playing games.

    Hmm i think the longest i have ever played is about 7 hours (it was a Saturday). I played all morning and a little past lunch (I was starving!) and you should probably go outside for a little while every now and then. Happy

    thats non-sense, just take exercise seriously and pay attention to your forearms, wrists and hands. The biggest risk is RSI which i have never had despite being a devoted gamer.

    yes, because they didn't eat and drink properly, and they were ignoring their needs.

    regardless there are lots of contributing factors of why people die, video games are not to blame for some idiot playing until he dies.
