The game player hit his head on a table during a seizure while playing with the console.

sued nintendo?

that's pretty weak.

what with games being so popular, it's not surprising that this sort of thing happens every now and again...

it's a good sig, but it's a pity that it can't be condensed so it doesn't interrupt the page layout so much, if it was condensed you wouldn't be able to see it properly, unfortunately.

At least put the pitcher of l33t drink on a table behind you FFS! Although I personally leave a cup of l33t drink on the table behind me.

Actually, the first true Video Game fatality was due to the classic arcade game Berzerk!

An 80 year old man somehow or another thought he'd give the game a shot. He found it so freaking stressfull that he keeld over just as the machine blared the infamus "Intruder Alert!" sound.

Berzerk is considerd by many videogame historians as being the predisessors to the FPS format. I have a low opinion of FPS games (save for Deus Ex), and thus must say that Berzerk is supperior  :D

You can read about this and other videogame odities at one of my fav sites (you can even dig up some of my letters in the mailbag under Psyjax!) at www.classicgaming.com
