A Florida ex Marine has been missing for more than a week, and relatives think it might be partly because of Call of Duty 4.

The injured Iraqi war veteran is a victim of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and last week, after playing COD 4, he said he "had to get out," left his home and has not been seen since.

The suspicion is Eric W. Hall is not injured; he just doesn't particularly feel like being found. "He's a Marine," said Courtney Birge, who is married to Hall's cousin, "He knows how to survive off the land and find food. We don't feel he is dead. We want him back with us."

Charlotte County sheriff's officials found Hall's motorcycle last Sunday at Sulstone Drive and Pasadena Terrace. A neighbors heard a man yelling in the woods near that area, a fire was set, and authorities found a cigarette butt near the fire and said Hall smokes that brand. But other than that, no clues.

Reports that an urgent call to Colonel Trautman were made have not been confirmed, as Trautman is a fictional character in the movie First Blood.
