Longest time spent playing a single game?

[Selohos]

Single Sitting: FFXI (29 Hours)
All time: Guild Wars (1000+ Hours)

Yeeaaaahhh... BIG time sinks. esp because after GW it's 700 hrs of FFXI and 500 of Mabinogi and probably 300 or so in MapleStory and those are only the MMOs Thankfully I have been MMO free for 1.5 years now XD (sounds like some sort of Gamer-holics meeting intro)

"Hi, My Name's Steve."
"Hello Steve."
"I've... played FFXI for 29 hours straight before, and I just... I mean... It's like I'm not even me when I'm... Gaming. But I've been good and managed to stop from playing for 12 months now! I've learned to deal with my... addiction." etc. etc. Har Har, horrible Joke. we can all go home now.

Earthbound: 18 hours straight, dunno where I was for days after...good times.

Total? Disgaea 2, 300 hours. I don't even know how that happened.

I don't know about which game I've played longest overall, but I know of one I've played longest in a single sitting. Back in the day, I played Mystical Ninja on the N64 (the first one) practically all day.

In fact, I found myself able to get so far one day, play it the next day beating it, and that same day returning to the exact point I stopped the day before. I beat the game basically once every day! ...yeah, I had no life. ::crawls into corner::

in one sitting? that would be bloody palace mode in DMC3, i played for 18 hours. well, more like 16, if you count getting food and bathroom breaks.

overall time spent playing a game? i dunno it'd eather be mass effect 2 (7 completed runs at about 25 hours each adds up to 175, then add in the could of times i just stopped halfway through we can say 200 hours) but i'm almost sure i played dynasty warriors 3 way longer than that, it used to be the game me and my friend would play after school everyday... for 2 years.

one sitting: 10 hours mw2

overall: runescape 146 days 3 hours

I once played Kingdom Hearts 2 from 8 in the morning to 6 at night. After I finished it I stood up and blacked out for a few seconds (I'm not kidding).

I probably have an embarrassing amount of hours playing WoW as well. It's weird I don't really have that many long sittings when I"m playing video games anymore. When I was a kid I could literally play for 4-6 hours straight, but now I'll play 1-2 hours a day at most. Maybe as I've grown up I've gotten more responsible with gamin? I dunno, but I kind of miss those long, gaming sessions on summer days...

Overall would be Disgaea 1 with somewhere between 150 and 200 hours invested in it grinding to finally kill the Item Gods- and I did.

At once would probably be La Pucelle: Tactics for PS2, I did about a full day and a half of non-stop hardcore playing, then re-playing with my only breaks being to use the toilet and get food. I finally realized that I should probably take a break longer than a minute to maybe get some sleep- it was the best sleep I've ever slept ^_^

I guess I'm just a sucker for Nippon Ichi games...

 

[DeadFOAM]

In a single sitting? About 14 when Resident Evil 4 came out on the PS2.

 

[Dana22]

4 hours in Modern Warfare 2. Just to finish the campaign *ba dum tsh*

 

[GebGuy]

me and a group of friends of mine did a Mario Party marathon, MP4 i think it was, over a long weekend, I lasted 48+ hours and various friends were like, 36 hours and before dropping then coming back. Good times.

 

[Nickthequick]

Ever play Ape Escape 2 for 18 hours straight. It kinda makes you want to lie down for a couple of days and never play the game again.

 

[Megacobb]

Dead Rising for 24 for hours no sleep I had nightmares of Frank in a dress the next night and I am still playing the game to this day.

 

[blankedboy]

Definitely Sauerbraten, if you count whipping upstairs for a couple minutes to get noodles.
Back in the TBI clan days, I spent about 15 hours from about 8am to 11pm or so, just messing around with the clan.

That was my third clan, I'm onto my fourth now that the holidays are coming around again

[Siegreich]

Metal gear solid 3 and 4 in a row, it was a long night.

 

[AlmostLikeLife]

32 hours, 12 minutes total in Mass Effect 2. That's an awful lot of mining.

 

[Kesia]

Tetris, on account of the fact that I've been playing it since the mid-80s.

 

[XXintercepterXX]

WoW for 8-16 hours after the 5 hour mark the remembering the timeyou started at gets hasey*
* i think thats how you spell it

 

[Mimssy]

I've played 15 hour stretches in more than one game. It's pretty shameful.

 

[Overlordjack]

total time played 46 days, 8 hours, 57 min, 37 sec (wow)

 

[Fortesque]

Overall... probebly... no idea actually, there have been many I have put 100s of hours into. Fallout 3, FFVII, Gothic Trilogy, Mass Effect, Dragon Age.

Most recently, Dwarf Fortress. Had a fort going for about 50hrs at the moment, have survived many a Goblin Siege.

In one sitting though, League of Legends. Had a 14hr run while mass saving 6300 IP for Vladimir.
