On Shelves This Week - Image 1Let's start this week early, shall we? Coming up on retail shelves starting July 27 all the way to the first few days of August is another hailstorm of PC games from the independent front, though you'd probably love this week for the release of Namco Bandai's SoulCalibur IV and its limited edition kits. But if there's anything more significant this time, it's the appearance of more Olympics-themed games as the week heralds the eve before the World Olympics in Beijing. We take them all at the full story.

On Shelves This Week - Image 1Another week of On Shelves, and the major consoles are apparently missing in action. That doesn't mean, however, that there won't be any fun to be had in this week's slew of game releases. Final Fantasy IV will finally be getting its turn in the DS spotlight, for one, and there are several other sports and adventure titles to keep you busy through the summer lull.

Cyber Cafe - Image 1We've all heard that news about the South Korean dude dying in his seat after playing StarCraft for 50 hours straight. While it's a tragedy that he died doing something he obviously liked, it's an all-too-real fact that anything, if consumed in excess, can and will kill you.

Now it seems that the Internet has made it into that list of things you should probably avoid in taking in too much, as a 30-year-old man in China recently died after being on the interwebs for three days straight.

This little bit of news comes from a local broadsheet, the Beijing News. Apparently, the web-user, having already clocked a staggering 72 hours on the internet straight in a cybercafe, suddenly collapsed in front of his computer terminal. Emergency personnel were quickly summoned but were unable to revive the user.

One of the medics that reported to the scene was quoted in saying that the amount of time the user had spent online might have triggered heart problems. Unfortunately, the broadsheet did not specify just what kind of online activity the user was engaged in before his death.

Of course, one doesn't really need to pin down just what activity it is, if you consider the absurd amount of time spent online. 72 straight of any activity, be it something as sedentary as videogaming or online surfing can and will take a toll on your body. Your body needs sleep, and any considerable deprivation of it can be quite devastating, if not downright fatal.

So remember, while being focused on a certain hobby or pastime is nice, it's always important to take a break.
