remember kids, dont play games for 72 hours straight or this might happen to you...

3 days in a row... How is it possible :x

I remember I played like 30h once in USKO and it got to a point where I couldn't keep my eyes open and felt asleep on the keyboard

Anyway, R.I.P

events portrayed are not entirely accurate and are being sensationalized. Russell struggled with health problems for some time and did not commit to a 3 day marathon session of Diablo 3

Move Along, Nothing To See Here
