Teen collapses after playing Call of Duty for 4 days straight - Polidicks

[QUOTE=FlashMarsh;37139528]Haha, yeah right.[/QUOTE] It's true If i play something like Garry's Mod, i automatically get bored after 1 hour and quit If i play something like TF2 (or any other game with a goal), i begin to gradually suck and automatically ragequit after 30 minutes

[QUOTE=YorkshireLad;37140792]mate me and my mate pull all nighters even khalid down my road joins in[/QUOTE] What a great story!

Did he reach the last prestige? If not he's a scrub.

good job mom!! let me guess, dad isnt in the picture??

[QUOTE=Zeemlapje;37141133]good job mom!! let me guess, dad isnt in the picture??[/QUOTE] How the fuck is that even related?

Case scenario: The kid never had a console ever and this is probably first time playing.

[QUOTE=Camdude90;37141159]How the fuck is that even related?[/QUOTE] did u even read the article?? [quote]He’s expected to be OK — [B]but his mom[/B] has taken away the Xbox.[/quote] theres no reference to any other parent but his mom. plus dads are way more strict than moms so none of this wouldve happened if dad were in the pictuer...

The only thing I can truly think to say is that this kid is a dumbass.

Would've fell asleep playing it for 15 minutes

[QUOTE=Kartoffel;37141228]The only thing I can truly think to say is that this kid is a dumbass.[/QUOTE]If not xbox, it could've been alcohol or drugs. Kids are stupid. Nothing new there.

Longest games I've ever played in one sitting were Skyrim, Risen, and Fallout 3. This included many pause sessions, where I went and did other things, such as keeping myself energized and decently clean. Playing games all sweaty and shit is just awful. Play a good RPG after taking a shower. It's great!

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;37137699]LOL! dehydration is so funi XD Actually, no, it isn't, it's fucking horrifying.[/QUOTE] the humor does not derive from the fact that he nearly died of dehydration, it derives from the fact that it was preventable and he brought it upon himself by playing a video game for a ridiculously long time

[QUOTE=n0cturni;37137948]I don't see how people can just ignore their basic needs to play a video game. "NO TIME TO SHIT GOTTA GET MORE NOSCOPES"[/QUOTE] shitting is for scrubs

After "an accident" I always empty my bowels before playing such games.

why do the words "korea" and "starcraft" come to mind?

Longest game session I've ever done was 72 hours, and it was spread over several games. And was played with friends so things wouldn't get dull. We all took regular breaks for food, drink, and hygeine because no one wants to sit in a room with a bunch of sweaty people for 72 hours. I still remember the fight that broke out after we started playing Mario Party. That was a good finale to our marathon :v:

[quote]did u even read the article?? theres no reference to any other parent but his mom. plus dads are way more strict than moms so none of this wouldve happened if dad were in the pictuer...[/quote] Why try and cite an article if you are just going to pull "facts" out of your ass?

Longest I can play video games for is like 12 hours, max, and not one video game. And I just eat/Drink during cutscenes

I could understand spending a shit load of time on an RPG or some game that has a goal you're trying to reach but COD is so gad damn repetitive, it's just run and shoot, how could you stand that for four days let alone enjoy it?

I propose a worldwide ban on call of duty. ... To ensure our kids' safety, of course.

[QUOTE=TheWhiteFox1;37137702]What kind of parent would be alright with their son playing something for 4 days straight, with the only breaks being to eat or shower?[/QUOTE] No father around to stop the kid from being lazy.

Did he shit at all? Half the time I stare at my desktop figuring out what to play.

[QUOTE=stupid10er;37137646]how is this news[/QUOTE] It's agenda based news. It's trying to show people how them "vidya games" are destroying are youth and taking away their ability to exercise self control.

It doesn't matter what game he was playing. Playing a game for more than a whole day is ridiculous.

He didn't want to interrupt his killstreak

Longest I sat once was 7 hours, Got so tired that I started hallucinating. Never again.

Lack of parenting that is.

I just realized something sad. I live in a world where this NOT ONLY happens in real life, and isn't a silly comedy sketch you see on TV, but it is deemed to be fucking NEWS WORTHY. What the actual fuck? I feel like I should have realized this sooner.
