We already knew that the asian guys are a little bit crazy when it comes to playing video games.
They have tv channels that show Starcraft multiplayer games and players that are idolized like rockstars. But now they have reached a new level of awesomeness.The highest court in South Korea allowed two players of the MMORPG "Lineage" to change the money they earned in the game into real money.
