Title: I was just curious but...
Post by: wiseboy on December 04, 2001, 07:55:25 PM
How many hours do people spend playing video games a week (an estimate)? Do people have time? Plenty of time? Pissed that your girl wants more romance and you want intimacy with the video game controller? I guess what I\'m trying to find out is how do people balance their time? Or maybe you don\'t have to worrry about that? In case people haven\'t realized these damn things can get pretty addictive but nothing wrong with that right?  :D  Your thoughts are appreciated.

By the way to the moderators I understand that this might be better off being in off-topic but I felt more responses would be generated here. But if you want to move it no problem.

I work 2nd shioft and don\'t get home till 11:45 at night. my wife works 1st shift and is in bed by 10:30

Late night TV sucks a big huge hairy asp

and I\'ve found out that I like my entertainment a little more interactive.

so I usually put in 1 - 3 hours a night

I normally play around a hour a day during the winter, I would say I play about 3 hours a week during the summer

very little! Less than 1 hour a week most of the time. If I go back to my house, I get about 10 strait hours. But that only happens about once a month...I live at my college and we\'re not allowed to have tv\'s... :(    :(

Yeah during the summer I don\'t play to much because I like to get out of the house, I would much rather play football, tennis, or golf during the nice weather, and during the winter I have sports and homework so that would explain only playing a hour a day


What part of Ohio do you live in, I live in a suburb of Columbus
