Half life syndrome
Article consists almost entirely of original research and no sources are cited. Yamla 22:11, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep I have seen articles about this phenomenon elsewhere on the internet and I think that what is needed is someone to dig out some sources and add them to the article rather than for the article to be deleted. Beno1000 22:40, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Also a little hoaxy... I buy the dizziness, but explosive diarrhea? --Deville (Talk) 01:17, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom & Deville. Getting motion sickness from playing a game is nothing new - happened to me with Bugdom (don't laugh). Only 116 ghits and none appear to match the article. Jamoche 04:42, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Looks dubious to me. Certainly there's nothing here that hasn't been alleged of videogames going back to the first Doom if not earlier. The opening of the article is an NPOV violation as it states and allegation as a fact without offering a supporting source. Methinks the explosive diarrhea might be more due to eating a bad burrito before playing the game. 23skidoo 06:04, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Of course, I do get motion sickness from just about everything (except plane/train stuff), but I DO NOT get "explosive diarrhea". Maybe transwiki to a Half-Life wiki, if there is one? M1ss1ontomars2k4 04:49, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
