A Taiwanese teenager died after playing Diablo III for 40 hours straight, The Australian reports citing United Daily News.
The 18-year-old boy identified only by his surname, Chuang, booked a room at a cafe in Tainan on July 13 and spent almost two days playing the game without eating.
On July 15 Chuang was found resting on a table; after an attendant woke him up, he took a couple of steps before collapsing. He was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at a hospital.
Chuang's death is speculated to be the result of cardiovascular problems due to spending that much time sitting.
