Two people whose online avatars were happily married in the virtual game "maple story" , suddenly got divorced, the female got pissed with this and killed her online husband. And the police arrested her, not for murdering an online character(that would happen in 2015) but for hacking.

My thoughts : Why don't these people get a life ;-) That said games really can be addictive.

P.S: What most important to note is how important a part of our lives Virtual Reality is becoming. We live in a dream and the dream within the main dream is getting even more precious than the main dream itself. Essentially we are trying to stay as far away as possible from reality. hah thats philosophical !!!
