He once played for four days straight on one quarter, a gallon of chocolate milk and an adult diaper.

You turned your mom's basement into an "internet cafe"? Including yourself and your mom, how many other people have seen this "cafe"?

If the internet cafe is too cold, you need better graphics cards.

Wasn't his refusal to actually move his buttons a dead giveaway?

So many ways to go about commenting on this. Let's give it a shot!
1. I guess he took an arrow to the knee.
2. There goes the last WoW player!
3. Too much CoD kills the brain.
4. He could not handle so many jedis and siths online.
5. He thought the cake was real instead of a lie.

They knew something was wrong when he finally stopped farting.

Referring to the deceased's lack of providing any cover during the raid, another gamer said "he was being a cocksucker, and you can quote me on that, please."

I guess he missed the 1UP.

Another game, however, was able to find a positve. "At least this guy didn't steal my Cloudsong." he told reporters.

People die all the time, although he's probably gonna be pissed after he runs back from his bind point and finds out someone moved his corpse.

The Medical Examiner said his last seconds were spent on a failed attempt to clear his browsing history.

'Forsaken World' (cutout on the wall behind him) has to be thrilled with the free advertising.

Um, we are talking about online gamers here. I very much doubt he smelled any different than the living ones.

Oh. League of Legends?

That game is terrible.

I have to agree here. They suckered me in with detailed descriptions of characters, but in the end it was just all of the worst things about WC3 with none of the good things.

And the playerbase includes some of the most foul tempered children and man-children i've even encountered.

It's a safe bet as his motor functions began to fail, the last thing he read was abuse directed towards him.
