Longest time spent playing a single game?

[Keava]

In a single sitting? I'd guess it would be WoW. Raids on average took us from 8pm to midnight, add hour or two before raid to get ready, farm flasks, etc and a progress night could extend to 1am sometimes so about 6-7 hours in total, that's with several 5-10 minute bio/food breaks in between however.

WoW, if i add up the total play time it goes up to around 300 - 500 days. Longest play in a single go around 32 hours, gotta love Dragon Age: Origins.

 

[Rofl-kamikaze]

Single sitting: Banjo tooie for about 13 or 14 hours. I got pretty fucking far that day!
Concentrated gaming including sleep: Twilight princess, which I played for about 10 hours a day for 4 or 5 days.

Total: Team fortress 2. I'm not posting the time. It's pretty sad...

Come on... you know you want to...

For me, probably Oblivion, not sure about the hour count, but its probably somewhere up there. I'll take a guess..... 100+ hrs

 

[Communist partisan]

GTA Sanandreas over 24 hours...

 

[TheBadGamer]

8 in assassin's Creed and in over all almost 200 h in Legend Of Zelda TP and over 200 h if not over 300h on OoT and AlttP.

 

[JacobyPAX]

18 straight hours of fallout 3

 

[wolfshrimp]

2 years of Morrowind- I mean every day for two solid years. Miss those times.

as for pure time spent playing one game- MW2 multi and single player for about 10 hours. Had a bottle of water and some snacks at the foot of my bed but they went untouched.
Or possibly Fallout 3, but I took breaks to get some food, go to the loo and have a ... ah well... yeah

 

[Gerrawn]

Clocked in around 250 hours of Dragon Age: Origins. I love that game.

 

[NoseDigger]

Total would be BF2142. Love that game. And with the new 1.51 beta patch out, more hours will be added!

 

[Baby Tea]

Six hours. SIX FUCKING HOURS of shooting aliens.
We played every single game mode.

Only 6? I've stayed up for 18 straight when I was in college.
I was playing, believe it or not, Empire Earth. Not the greatest game but somehow worthy of 18 hours.
I finally stopped when I kept falling asleep on my keyboard. Never did it again.
I still do the odd 6 or 8 hours on a Saturday if my wife is working, though!

EDIT: Since everyone else is also throwing in their most played game over all, not in just one sitting then I will to! It's Baldur's Gate. From 1998 to present...and foreseeable future.

Not sure I think it might be Battlefield 2 though, sat up a whole night once to play in a tournament, Bf2c if anyone else was in it

 

[Phoenixlight]

Altogether about 100 days on world of warcraft and in a single session about 10 hours on world of warcraft.

 

[IdiotHeart]

It was probably a 14-15 hour stint playing Fable: The Lost Chapters. The worst bit is; I wouldn't have noticed a machine-gun wielding T-Rex leaning through the window asking me to go pillaging and for a spot to drink afterwards.

Damn you, Molyneux.

 

[Hgame]

In a single sitting, probably Deus Ex 10+ hours.
In Total Deus Ex again for 400+ hours. Ive replayed it over and over to try and get all the possible routes.

 

[Tilldanielnoah]

10 hour long game in age of empires 2....God damn persians and there war elephants...

 

[C95J]

MW2, the day before release I got it for pre order. I played for 7h 41m, and completed the whole campaign on veteran before the game even officially came out

EDIT: Or PGR3 when I played it 12h straight all day. Or Crackdown when I played it all night once.

 

[Private Custard]

I did three days straight on Morrowind, using a combination of various narcotics to keep myself awake during the night and not too fidgety during the day.

My housemates realised I wasn't stopping and so ordered me pizza and brought me up fresh orange juice every so often. Aahhh, the long-gone days of being young and stupid, I'm a lot more sensible now.

I ended up at 4000 hours on that one character!

 

[ultimateownage]

A triple sleep over with my best friend playing Resident Evil 5. I think we 95%-ed it and finished all the DLC. That game is terrible if you have no friends, but brilliant with.
