Can a video game publisher be successfully sued for releasing a game that makes players want to play it compulsively? That's the question of the hour in the USA, as Lineage II player Craig Smallwood levied a $3 million negligence suit against NCsoft for making the game too addictive. Smallwood found himself playing the MMO for over 20,000 hours in the last five years, to the point where he is unable to function normally in real life -- and he claims it's NCsoft's fault for not warning him in advance. Smallwood's gameplay averaged around 11 hours per day during that period.

I laughed because this was so damn funny


Its funny how stupid ppl like Smallwood here are suing gaming companies for playing 5 years on the computer
Some people play warcraft for 5+ years and they don't do s*** like this

And its funny that he said that NCsoft had to warn him
Hes just that retarded.
