Hundreds of buyers of "Half-Life 2," the hotly anticipated shooting game released last week, are reporting in developer Valve Software's user forums that they feel queasy and often develop a bad headache after playing the game for as little as an hour.

"I am impressed and sickened (literally) by the level of detail," one player wrote.

They most likely just dont want to go to work until the finish the game...

Or they are too addicted to the game.

Or they've just lost all track of time and what they called to be an hour was actually 10 hours of intense playing without receiving any bodyfluids. ;)

Had that myself with DIII one time, totally lost all track of time untill I noticed it was getting very late and I was getting a headache because of not drinking anything for a few hours
