China cracks down on overzealous gamers:

Under-18s who play for more than three consecutive hours a day will have limits imposed on the amount of points they can score, [Xinhua] reported.

Chinese gaming firms such as NetEase and Shanda Interactive Entertainment have until 15 July to install software which will halve the number of points gamers can score if they play for more than three hours, said the report…

Determined gamers who play for more than five hours will get no points at all and face an on-screen warning that they are entering "unhealthy game time".
