MMORPG player kidnapped and held at gunpoint for game password

[George P Burdell]

An armed gang of four kidnapped one of the world's top RPG gamers after one criminal's girlfriend lured him into a fake date using Orkut, Google's social network. After sequestering him in Sao Paulo, they held a gun against the victim's head for five hours to get his password, which they wanted to sell for $8,000. And yes, the story gets even better.

This beats even the story about an MMORPG player stabbing another one to death over a lost virtual sword.

All this for Gunbound? WTF?

 

[Phokus]

never heard of gunbound until now.

Wow that guy is hardcore. He didn't crack even though they had a gun to his head for hours.

Gunbound is pretty fun. I've always found it ridiculous that people pay real money to upgrade their avatars, though.

He must have been wearing a +10 armor helmet.
