Starcraft is a worldwide phenomenon, with millions of people sinking billions of hours into the addictive RTS. In 2005, a South Korean man named Lee Seung Seop became enamored with the sci-fi series, to the point of obsession. After losing his job to his addiction, he sat down with his troops for a whopping 50 hours. He had been sitting in an Internet cafe for almost 2 days. He was reportedly about to go home when he slumped over in his chair.
