How much time you spend playing games?

My record is 18 hours non stop playing (few years ago).Friend and I were trying to get all licences in Gran turismo 1.It took us about 10 hours then we decided to get all golds... so it went on and on...

Should be in discussion :)

13 hours

Final Fantasy 7.  Played from when my brother left for work (the TV was in his room) to when he kicked me out of his room at night because he was trying to sleep.

And that\'s literally non-stop.

When I was younger I pretty much spent my spare time doing nothing else but playing on my Amiga.

Now I average about 2 or 3 hours a week, unless I have bought the latest fantastic release which makes my average increase to about 20 hours a week.

Probably the longets I\'ve spent in one sitting was with Tony Hawk 3 when I first got it, and that was about 6 hours. Other than that, I average about 3 to 5 hours a week now.
Good....Bad....I\'m the guy with the gun.

Around 30-40 hours with two games...

QFG - I decided to run thur the entire series back to back without breaks except to get munchies and take a leak.

PSO - Everytime I went to log off another friend would show up and wanna get a few lvls in and show me what he/she found or had duped for them. I spent so much time on the game I eventually jus said to hell with it and stayed up and online for almost 2 days streight.

I used to play a lot more in the past... My record for a continious gaming session is still 25 hours, when I got FFVII. FFX kept me in front of the TV for a max of about 12 hours at a time. The biggest total time I\'ve spent with one game alone would be with FFVII; about 700-750 hours. FFX ate 200 hours... gee whiz.

I still play everyday, anywhere from 5 minutes (Tekken 4, SSX, Frequency) to several hours. Lately it\'s been more like 5-10 minutes a pop. I luv games, and I do believe I am a game\'o\'holic, couldn\'t live without \'em!

Ooo, SoA kept me up well over 10 hours at best too, damn I LOVED that game!

*hugs DC & SoA*

It was just SO awesome the first time through... now there\'s nothing more to see, or at least not enough to make me go back... but I\'ll always treasure it in my heart as one of the finest games ever.

That\'s it? Pfft. 700 hours is nothing. On PSO I\'ve got over.. god.. lemmie add this up..

Tesla - Rougly 1,000 hours (Not sure cause of CK & Remakes)
Sinue - Rougly 800 hours (Not sure cause of Remakes)
Mana - Roughly 600 hours.
Elsa - 170 hours.
Pestilance - 120 hours
Sludge Vohaul & other various temp chars - Roughly 300 hours.

Total = Roughly 3,000 hours.

So yeah... 700 hours is a drop in the bucket. I\'m sure there\'s quite a few EQ players out there who would simply laugh at my pitiful 3k as well.

I had easily 120 hours on Ocarina of Time, and about 140 on Majora\'s Mask.
 
Best two [insert genre here] games ever made.

- SF note: Zelda is not an adventure game by any strech of the imagination. Roberta Williams would be spinning in her grave right now if she were dead. :evil:
