Fourth Quake In A Row Claims 500 Hours

SAN FRANCISCORescue workers are still searching frantically for any signs of unwasted time in
the wreckage of college-school student Jeremy Fanshaw's life, following a devastating fourth
Quake game that claimed an estimated 500 hours of his time. "Ordinarily, a game of this
magnitude would destroy 40 to 50 hours," Red Cross worker Linda Wallis-Hupford said. "But,
tragically, Jeremy went back to play the game from the beginning, then he started playing at
harder and harder skill levels, and, eventually, he downloaded software that let him create his
own levels and skins." As rescue efforts continue, experts are speculating about a possible
fifth Quake disaster that could last even longer, with more stunning graphics.
