Ever seen those warnings on the front of games, or their boxes, where they recommend that you shouldn’t play the Playstation or Xbox for extended periods of time or in the dark, as they pose potential health risks? Well, this is a perfect example of how it all goes wrong.

This kid was gaming on the latest version of action game Modern Warfare 2 for 17 hours, so he says. And, surprise surprise, he’s gone nuts. First we see him slurring his words (hard enough to deciper in his already difficult accent), then he starts to lose it on video, getting violent and punching a wall, until the grand finale- which you can cringe at for yourself.

Seriously, these games are supposed to be for entertainment- Stop people like this playing them to the point that they go bonkers. Also, restricting their access to YouTube: then we can’t see them making a gobshite of themselves.

I do feel sorry for people like this, as it is certainly not right to behave in such a way. However, it does make for some bizarre viewing.
