According to a recent article posted on Fox News the man was in his thirties and played the video games at an Internet cafe, he had not slept, had eaten next to nothing and had barely moved in roughly 72 hours, he collapsed, slipped into a coma and was pronounced dead at a nearby clinic shortly after.

Reports suggest that the unnamed man spent the equivalent of more than $1,500 on Internet gaming over the past month, the police have seized some of the computers from the Internet cafe to help them determine the cause of death.

A couple of months ago The Escapist published an article telling us that a teenager died after playing a game for 12 hours, obviously a single 12 hour gaming session shouldn’t kill you, however it is thought that a build-up of events led to the tragedy.

I think that this should be a huge wake up call to anyone who is heavily addicted to a video game, in neither story a video game was confirmed to be the definite cause of death, however it undoubtedly played its part.

Do you worry about a friend or family member gaming too much? If so, how long do they play for?

T3 are reporting that Sony is set to take the stage at the upcoming GDC 2011 event and reveal the Move server. This is a set of drivers that would allow Playstation Move controllers to be compatible with a PC.

A statement says that a new Move Server project will be discussed which will allow “academics and hobbyists to develop software using the PlayStation Move controller on their own PCs.”

This could see developers making PC games that will be compatible with the PlayStation Move if Sony is prepared to allow it. See the GDC 2011 Schedule Builder here.

Meanwhile Don Reisinger over at Cnet, is reporting that an analyst is suggesting that we could see a price drop on all consoles this year. Due to the Xbox 360 success last year, the analyst Michael Pachter suggests that Microsoft “is in the driver’s seat” for any price cuts.

Any price drop though will only come if Microsoft see’s any sales declines, and Pachter thinks Microsoft may drop the Kinect 250GB 360 bundle from $399.99 to $299. This will than lead to Sony lowering the price of its lower the price of its Move bundles.

According to Stephany Nunneley over at vg247.com, the developer – Criterion Games – has just announced that it will be releasing a patch for the PC version of NFS: Hot Pursuit, which should be available to download next week. Although at this stage, we haven’t got an exact arrival date.

One of the problems that PC gamers reported was that their game would crash either at the start of an event, on Car Select, Loading Screen or Map Screen. However, Criterion has now located and fixed the reported issue. The problem with corrupted Dreamshots in non-16:9 aspect ratios has also been sorted.

The other issues to have been fixed with the upcoming patch include the missing snow / rain and Corona effects and the CL Eye driver crashing the game upon startup. The developer has also added support for D-Box motion chair. Have you been experiencing any issues with NFS: Hot Pursuit?

According to Engadget, the system comes with the Intel i7-980X CPU, but has been overclocked to 4.6GHz – hence the need for some major cooling. The good thing is, when the system is in idle the temperature of the machine will be 0ºC thanks to its freezing cold chilling system.

If you are one of those who plays games for tens of hours at a time, then you can feel safe in the knowledge that your system will not heat up, but this is not for every gamer, as the high-end machine demands a high price to match.

There have been similar systems designed to keep your desktop cool, but nothing like the Sub-Zero Liquid Chilled System. However, we already mentioned the downside above, its price; prices start from $3,899 – not sure if I love gaming that much? For those looking to spend a bit less, then how about their range of desktops designed just for Black Ops, more details can be found in our previous post.

Iain of Thegamingreview is asking was the game rushed by Codemasters, and with elongated pit stops and AI drivers not pitting at all, is not really a good thing. There has been reports of some people having frequent freezing and locking up on the Xbox 360. Users of all formats are reporting corrupt saved data.

Another problem on all formats is the race results not portraying actual results, and damage having no effect on AI or user cars. There seems to be problems over grip with reports of having loads even in the wet. Nearly all of the problems reported are affecting all formats of the game, and is quite a long list so far.

So far the best game of the year goes to Mass Effect 2, which is the only game to get higher than the 90 mark (metacritic metascore). But being a sequel its hardly a new concept. Bioshock 2 is closely behind with 88, and Battlefield: Bad Company 2 with 87 but again, they are sequels.

The best reviewed PC-only title goes to Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II – Chaos Rising which only managed to break the 85 barrier.

Amongst the other games are Assassins Creed II with 86, but users only gave the game a 2.8/10 rating, Just Cause 2 with 84, Dragon Age: Origins – Awakening 82, and Metro 2033 with 81.

As you can see the majority of games are either sequels or expansions. Such as Warhammer 40,000 and Dragon Age: Origins – Awakening.

Are you disappointed with the games that PC owners have had so far this year? What other games that are coming out in the second half of the year do you think will top the charts?
