Longest time spent playing a game?

[The Rusk]

Ok, the question is what's the longest amount of time you've spent playing a game in one sitting? Also what game was it you were playing?

Mine would probably be Final Fantasy X. I was having trouble defeating a boss in the mountain area so I decided I needed to train up. I was about 12 at the time and couldn't be bothered to go into school, so after about half an hour of unconvincing whining to my mum I got the day off . Started playing at around 9 when my mum left for work and carried on until about 6 in the morning the following day. 21 hours of gaming, stopping occasionally for snacks and whenever nature intended. I'm not sure how that compares to other gamers so I decided to find out.

P.S. Unfortunately I did not get the next day off

I tried to complete FFVII in one sitting. 28 hours later and I lost against Saviour Sephiroth. I wasn't happy...

Man, and I was proud of my 16 hour binge on FF6....

I played Runescape for I think 2 days strait while I was house sitting a few years ago, when games like that were cool.

I actually got a 2 day ban because Jagex was "concerned" for my health.

I can't really compare to my fellow posters, but i think it's probably around 8 hours straight.

First it was completing Gears of War online Co-op with a mate, then we jumped straight into COD4.

Not too long ago, maybe about 8 months ago, I figured I had about 3 or 4 hours of the main plot left in Oblivion and was determined to finish it... 22 hours later, I finally made it.

wow mines kinda small compared to some of these but running thorough gears of war then gettin out at midnight to get brawl and doin the subspace emissary on that then just making stages so probably like 20 hours

Super Smash Bros. Melee! You have to play for 20 hours to get mewtwo, and so whn it was all said and done, I had put in a good 11 just to get him, and then Game & Watch.

72 hours GTA San Adreas. excessive sandboxing

 

[SgtScrewup]

I do recall, playing Red Alert and C&C from about 7pm Friday evening, till Early Monday mornings I think our record for a single round was 27 hours. This being broken up with the needed trips to the fridge, the bathroom and the corner store for smokes.....

12-14 hours playing mass effect.on a week long vacation i was determined to earn all achievements

 

[Nanvk]

I played Fable for 18-20 hours

14 hours on Halo 2 multiplayer. Went around to a friends house, along with fifteen other guys and we linked up 4 Xboxs and played Halo2. We all brought alcohol and ordered pizza delivered. It lasted from 5pm Saturday to around 7am Sunday. Most fun I've had with my pants on (and my fly zipped up).

ive spent a total of over 300 hours on oblivion and my longest spree is 24 hours straight on halo 2... i know i have no life

30 hours playing FFXI, with a 1.5 L bottle of white wine and a case of beer ^^

It's extra fun in an MMO because people who left your party to go to sleep or work or whatever come back on afterwards and see you're on and have gain x amount of levels and they're like "are you STILL on??" .. Good for a lul anyways.

 

[Nugoo]

Also Fable. Only between 12 and 16 hours, though. I've also spent the same amount of time on Alpha Centauri.

 

[sma_warrior]

24 hours on GT4 Le Mans race because the AI on the formula 1 car on that particular track was utterly hopeless... (it insisted on making a pit stop every 2 laps for new tyres - I could drive quicker than the computer opponents in the car on reds)

 

[sonza]
