An unemployed 24 year-old man has been reportedly found dead in the bathroom of an Internet cafe in South Korea after a long round of gameplaying. Witnesses of the spectacular 86 hour gaming session claim that the man collapsed during play and, shortly after recovering, staggered into the bathroom where his pitiful life - void of all meaning and purpose - came to an abrupt end.

I heard that it was due to him loosing a large amount of 'in game' money (platinum). The guy had some major mental problems though.
