Okay,MMOGs are catching the spotlight of public once again. A schoolboy collapsed and went into convulsions after playing Wrath of the Lich King, the latest expansion of World of Warcraft series, for 24 hours straight. It might be WotLK's first time to be the target of public criticism.
The 15-year-old boy and his friends were playing Wrath of the Lich King when he suffered what appeared to be an epileptic seizure, it was reported today.
"They played all day and all night. Maybe they got a few hours of sleep. They ate a little food and breakfast at their computers," the boy's father told the Kvällsposten newspaper in Sweden.
Doctors told the father that his son's bodily systems had been disrupted by a combination of sleep deprivation, lack of food, and the prolonged period of concentration playing the game.
As an old saying goes: Each coin has two sides. Actually people can not attribute the fault only to WotLK, while the teenager's parents and the public also couldn't weasel out of their responsibility. In many cases, good or evil, it depends on the way you think. Whether you agree or not, welcome to comment here. The only thing is, No WoW Clone, thank you.
