Comments on: Chinese Gamer Dies in the Matrix and for Real http://profy.com/2007/09/17/web-death/ Internet news and commentary Sun, 05 Jul 2009 02:15:39 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7 hourly 1 By: Svetlana Gladkova http://profy.com/2007/09/17/web-death/#comment-30167 Svetlana Gladkova Tue, 18 Sep 2007 05:33:33 +0000 http://profy.com/2007/09/17/web-death/#comment-30167 Phil, excellent article, you made me realize how actually strange some of our common values (like being easily found by Google as a blogger and writer) are for the rest of the mankind :) By the way, only yesterday we had equally strange and terrible news here in Russia: a teenager killed a friend of his after the friend stole some of his virtual property in an online game that is popular here. This looks like even more dangerous - gamers are dangerous to other people, not only to themselves.

Do yo want us to be hacked by armies or Chinese soldiers? We have reached a point where much of the news is questionable not just that out of China. I know I almost died while playing Counterstrike once because a buddy made me laugh so hard I choked on a pork chop. :) LOL @ Billy :) Steve, you missed the capitalization of China man.

On the radio today I heard a story out of Bosnia about a couple getting divorced because they found out they were having an "IM affair" and did not know who they were talking to until they met up. I call BS as this is nothing more than repacking the Pina Colada song. A lot of the "tall tales" we hear out of china and Eastern Europe are just made up. The guy who died from gaming is old news.
