WoW.. talk about dedication! Or rather, addiction! Geez, I myself am addicted to WoW but I sure as hell won't starve myself to death or play until I collapse.

Dont you think that going out and meet some girls is much better than playing for even “just” 5 hours WoW?!

You need to learn your geography, buddy. The kid is SWEDISH, this happened in Linköping, a town in Western -Sweden-. -NOT- the Netherlands.

According to reports, he played much longer than 15 hours, closer to 24.

I call that dedication and am proud of the lad. Hope he has a Lan connection from the hospital bed.
