Modern Warfare 2 was released on my cousins 16th birthday. We spent the whole weekend playing the game at his house (6 tv's and 6 xbox's all running off the one modem). We ended up having a 200 game winning streak.

Longest gaming session,hmm,
two spring to mind :

1)A lan party/warhammer/1v1 fighting game marathon, that must've lasted at least 30 hours, probably more
2)A 24+hour session final fantasy X

These days however I'm not so keen on long sessions, messes with my mind, I can probably last 5/6 hours on a good day now.

I remember playing Paper Mario for 13 hours once. I don't even know why I didn't stop, I just really got into it. I didn't even realise how long I'd been playing until the 12th hour.

I used to play 16 hours of Diablo two pretty often when i was in highschool .

Then world of warcraft came along and it turned into 24 hour sessions . That's my max .

Only other game i played for 24 hour straight was dark souls , when it first came out .

Yesterday i did a 10 hour gaming session , 8 hours of tales of grace f and 2 hours of UMVC3.

I clicked 4 to 8 hours, but I remember on Rock Band 2 I got the achievement for playing all the songs in one setlist... However I don't remember how long that was meant to take, does anone actually know?

I played Planescape Torment first time in one sitting and I read absolutely everything I could in the game including all the item descriptions etc and didn't use a guide.

Probably back when ME2 was released, took me 2 days to complete it, around 15 hours straight both days. Great weekend, that one.

Same thing happened with ME3, although that didn't take over 30 hours.

24 hours of Dark Souls? Even though it is my new favorite game of all time, I don't think I could manage it that long in one session :p I think my longest DS run was about 5-7 hours, started a new character, rang both bells and got the Lordvessel. That was a pretty good run, I have to admit

My longest was finishing AC2 in one go during a 15 hour stretch - and doing basically everything he game had to offer plus diking around. That was pretty tiring.

But it was nothing in comparison to playing competitive CS for 9 consecutive hours. The toll that took on my wrist, back, eyes and brain is something I shall not easily forget. I got the worst(and longest) headache of my life afterwards.

The longest I think I've ever gone I believe is just getting up in the morning, then playing until I go to bed. My parents will ***** if I stayed up really late. Maybe when I move out, I'll lock myself alone for a few days XD

Skyrim upon release day. Sessioned for just under 20 hours. My longest before that was Diablo 2, which was about 8 hours. Though i have friends who i think have destroyed both of my records.

Um...


I semi memorable one for me was 5 hours with 2 friends with the original BORDERLANDS...


With myself... I would say 6 I guess? Almost never get to that point thougt, that was maybe just once or twice. With a fair number of breaks in between.


EDIT:WAIT, what does "Gaming session" Stand for now?


It has to be with just ONE lone game, or it can be multiple games?

I cant imagine for my life how COULD someone possibly play the exact same game for 6+ hours. Not even the bests games ever IMO would be able to do that with me, it just gets old after a time.

I think when I played Fallout 3 for the first time, I constantly played it for 11 hours.

I was up 'till I think 2:00 am in the morning before I finally went to bed.
