Video games can be very addictive; in fact, some people accuse developers who get hooked to games with intention. The following 10 cases obtained from video game looks, the more and more extreme.
I have skipped before school, but this child takes the cake for the most elaborate excuse. Skipped school, online games for more than 16 hours a day, over a full three weeks playing a 15-year-old from Perth, Australia. How he did this? Every morning he was on his school uniform, and his mother went to work. As soon as she leave, he would it change and began to play. His mother would main page back after he arrived, should be of the school. To meet in the school, he had the school informed had surgery. His parents finally began to check up on him contacted his ruse as the school.
How many of us did get schoolyard in a scuffle? We all are, but a boy in Beijing took it to the next level. Apparently lost world have set in the game Warcraft, he "was" Mage a fire in his head, and his classmates on fire. For those, the world of Warcraft playing not, I'm sure it's pretty simple, what does a fire Mage by putting together derive two and two.
I have considered all-nighters in, while you play, but a man in South Korea almost a line drawn from three all-Nighters…in. After a 50-hour StarCraft meeting of the South Korean man collapsed and died of a heart attack. It has been suggested that his death was caused because he has only stopped by exhaustion, using the washroom and for short periods of time sleep. There have been other cases in China, where people anywhere from 3 to 15 days have played. However I myself include this one, since it received attention from a major news agency.
27 December 2004 left Xioyi a suicide note saying that "he the heroes of the game wanted to join, which he revered." The thirteen-year-old jumped then a tall building to the game world of Warcraft for 36 hours straight. His parents are now suing the Chinese traders of the game for $12,500.
A three-year old South Korean girl died of neglect, than their parents raise a virtual girl as they spent more time. The game was played was Prius online, a game similar to second life, where players work virtual jobs and well... virtual, second life. The couple had for a 12-hour gaming session at an Internet Cafe, so that her daughter left unattended. After returning home, they found her dead.
Similar to number six on this list, a man left his twins in the bathtub, he play on his game boy advance. Gregg j. small market is facing up to 10 years in prison for involuntary manslaughter.
Qiu Chengwei stabbed Zhu Caoyuan to Caoyuan Chenwei's had sold virtual sword in the game legend of Mir 3. Caoyuan had offered the money to Chenwei, but Chenwei lost his temper and stabbed Caoyuan while he was sleeping. While China has no laws to deal with the theft of virtual property, some countries (such as South Korea) have a section examining their police, the in-game crime. This makes it the list because the murder was committed on some pixels on a computer screen. Chengwei has been given a suspended death sentence for his crime.
Viet Nam a thirteen-year-old was arrested in young, after he killed and robbed an 81-year old woman for $6.20. The young confessed that he had done it because he needed money to an online game. He strangled the woman with a piece of rope and took the money from you before they are buried in a pile of sand at his house. This ranks at # 3 murder for a video game because it commit any of such a young age. [News article]
2 Teen murders mother of Halo 3
Seventeen-year-old Daniel Petric murdered his mother and his father injured, after she had refused, Halo 3 playing him to be. Previous entries and most of the entries on this list which refer to massive multiplayer online games, but I decided to include an Xbox first person shooter game because of how he murdered his mother. Petric went in his parents room and said, "Your eyes would close?" I have a surprise for you, "before shooting his father between the eyes." This eerie line sounds like it came directly from a horror film.
This is the most controversial item on the list, and it is the subject of many debates. Therefore, it is one part on the number. On Thanksgiving Shawn Woolley committed suicide, and his mother claimed that it was about EverQuest, a popular MMORPG. Sony Online, that game developers, says that EverQuest had nothing to do with the death. Liz Woolley, but disagree. You suspected that something in the game had him over the edge, either a rejection or a betrayal pushed.
