A 15-year old Belgian boy from La Louvière crashed into a day long coma following a World of Warcraft binge.

We’ve heard similar stories before and in some cases they even had a fatal outcome, but we’re still not used hearing such news and hopefully we never will be. Usually it’s the slightly older gamers in their late twenties and early thirties that collapse after long hours, or should we say days, of gaming.

“I’m addicted”, said the unfortunate teen in an interview with the Belgian La Capitale newspaper. He claims that he usually plays till five or six AM and then crashes into bed. He also says that on several occasions he kept playing thought the morning without sleeping, thanks to drinks loads of coffee and energy drinks.

His mother claims that she tried to take the computer away from him, but that the youth turned aggressive. We hope that she will finally succeed in her efforts following this incident.
