Man dies from 50 hour computer game marathon

A South Korean man died after playing the online battle stimulation game Starcraft for 50 hours. The man who was recently fired because of his game play, apparently had a heart attack minutes after he finished the game. Online computer games are very popular in South Korea and strangely enough this is not the first time someone died from a marathon gaming session.

The game that did the man in was Starcraft, a game about galactic warfare where humans must fight for their survival.
