Brian Vigneault was a 35-year-old father of three from Virginia, USA who gamed under the alias Poshybird.

Full article: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-trending-39232620 The latest sad sudden death of a gamer. I know some like to play for hours on end but be sure to take breaks, people! Get up, move around, have a bite to eat or make a drink. I think marathons are excessive personally. 35 is no age at which to pass away! JohnnyDos and AyaqGuyaq 2 Awards
