28 Year old man in South Korea died in hospital of a suspected herat attack after playing a computer game for 49 hours without a break.

He refused to sleep and barely ate or drank anything.
Daily Telegraph P14 11/8/05

Wonder if you got the high score?

Would it be insensitive of me to suggest that a guy like that get a life?
