Title: How much do you all play?
Post by: Stupid Mop on May 03, 2001, 05:11:06 AM
Sorry if this has been done heaps before but I just wanted to know how much you guys play games for each day. I mean all your consoles, not just PS2

I play for about 3 hours a day on average. Maybe more in the weekends if I dont go out

ive put 3 hours, it used to be much more but now i dont seem to play it as much, i always seem to have top do something or my gf comes over, she sometimes plays games with me like doa2, or iss, but normally she gets annoyed when i play. also i seem to spend more time in the forums now than on the computer:D i once played for 18 when i got wwf warzone (long time ago now i know)and a multi tap, we went up my mates and played it non-stop, i only stoppped as it was hearting my eyes. i used to play more when my brother lived with me aswell, the nights we spent playing tekken or fifa etc:D

Thats like me. Ever since my bro moved out I play a lot less. You just cant beat multiplayer gaming with your opponent sitting next to you.
Sure online gaming is fun but it\'s way better winning then giving s*** to the loser and it ends up being a real fight.

:surprised Wow I feel kind of weird because I play so much(5+ Hours):) ,  I played console games alot more when I used to go to my mom\'s house where i dont have a computer.

Now that I have cable internet service that is what I do most.
Counter-Strike AHL and Tribes 2 are what I play most.
Also I am still stuck on Ultima Online.

The only fun games I have to play now are Chrono Cross and FFIX because I have beat all my PS2 Games multiple times.  I guess that is the downside of playing so much...

Vulcan, maybe you should change it to how many hours per week. Just a thought. I don\'t play at all some days, but then on saturday or sunday, I may play 8 hours straight.

So...I don\'t know how to answer.

Ok..I estimate between 10-15 hours per week average, so divided by 7 that would be appx. 1.3-2hrs day

I feel rather bad about playing games. Call it a guilt trip or something like that, i just feel that i should be doing
something a bit more helpful around the house. I enjoy it a lot more if the wife plays along, the most recent thing
she played was Shadow of Memories. We both enjoyed this game a lot. Back when i had a PS1 we played quite a
few games together, like:

Metal Gear Solid
Silent Hill
Tomb Raider
Resident Evil
etc..etc..etc..

I dunno, i must be getting older or something. I\'m waiting for GT3, WRC2001 and Onimusha. Maybee then
i\'ll get the feeling to play again. There are other points to take into account aswell, i have 2 children and a life outside
the gaming world. Also the internet (These forums!) take a lot of my time. I just found out that iv\'e been on the
net for 180 Hours this month. I also do quite a bit of music creation so my time is very fragmented at the mo.
Anyway i\'ll be off before you go sleep :D

It depends... some days might pass with me not touching any of my consoles, on other days I could spend 10-15 hours on a game (last time this happened I was playin\' FFIX). Quite mad.

But nowadays, with no money to get any new games and having this funny feeling that games don\'t appeal to me as much as before (I\'m freaking out myself here), I really don\'t play much anymore. Today I\'ve played about an hour. A bit of SSX, some TTT and some Vagrant Story. I\'d guess a good average nowadays would be about 2 hours.

When the big PS2 games I\'m looking forward to (GT3, FFX, MGS2, Onimusha) start dropping in I\'m bound to lock up in my room for... no... wait, ag, I\'m in the army when those games come out. S***e. Well, that\'s life.

Enough for my wife to ask the question- "You are gonna play ANOTHER video game??"

I my gaming ain\'t just limited to PS2, I\'m talkin\' PC, emulators, Saturn, ANYTHING I can get my hands on.  I just don\'t feel right, unless I\'m playing a video game!

I average about three hours a day most weeks, though when I get new games I\'ll sometimes go double that for a day or two. It just depends on what else I have going on. One thing that helps is I work night shifts, so on my weekends I\'m usually up late with no one else around, so I get to play as much as I like. I also like to wind down from work by playing for about an hour when I get home in the morning. And I use headphones with my TV so I don\'t have to worry about waking up my roommate.

on average I play 1 hour a day

but when I\'m actually playing a good / great game I will play for 3 - 5 + hours a day


I\'ve been taking a break lately. I\'ve only picked up the controller to goof with the Red Faction Demo twice this week for a bout an hour each time.

Sometimes 4 hr. I get back pains when i play too long. If its a new game, then I play until the sun come up only on adventures games.  My g/f thinks I\'m craze to stay up that long.  But now days I don\'t have time. I\'m mostly on forums now.  It\'s like a addition or something! I have to stop!!   But when GT3 comes out I\'ll be playing most of the time.  :D

Less than an hour - or not at all. I don\'t play much - I either hang around here or then do sports or go to a friend. My life just doesn\'t leave time to spend with games... :(

Actually, I\'m not that interested in gaming anymore, wich scares me a bit. I bought a system wich costs all my savings and suddenly I\'m not so interested anymore! Someone could call the white-jagged doctors as we have an emergency...

Well, I play sometimes - mostly timesplitters with friends. I\'m going to buy Quake III and GT3, \'tho.

On weekday, I usually play a little (30mn or 45mn) when I come back from work.
I often play after watching a dvd, when my girlfriend goes to bed, so it must be between one
and two hours a day.

On weekends, it\'s more, but it really depends on the games I have, if they\'re new and I still
havent finished them...

I remember when we got FF9, we played every night with my gf, something like 4 hours a night,
and on weekends it was really much more....

HI There

I play for about 4 hours a day in the week and about 16 hours over the weekend.  If there is loads of good sports (Rugby / F1) for the weekend then I\'d rather watch the sport.  

Wednesday nights my girlfriend kicks me out of the room so that she can watch "Melrose Place".....really sucks....at least we have another small TV.  

Tip:  For you guys who have a girlfriend, and she is sick and tired of you playing games all the time:

Make sure that you hire/borrow a DVD when you know that you are going to play alot of games.  Watch the DVD with her and when it\'s done tell her that she has had her time to watch TV.

You,re  now on your way to happy gaming for the rest of the evening.......with or without her.

I\'m lucky, my girlfriend loves playstation! I can play as long as I want. As long as it\'s a 2 player game

HI there

Yes, my girlfriend also loves Playstation.......but to a certain extend.  I know what you\'re saying regarding 2 player games.  

The best chick game in my book is Crash Team Racing (CTR).  Have you ever played that game with a multitap? You and your mate and two other chicks.....GREAT FUN!!!!!  Only thing is that you end up having big time wars, be it your mate or either of the chicks.

If you have never played this game in Multi player then do yourself a favor and DO IT!!!!  I know it is PS1 but it is still fun!

Hear from you later!
