Poll: Your Longest Gaming Session

[Secret world leader (shhh)]

About 7/8 hours. I played and finished Spec Ops: The Line in one sitting. It was great.

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?

 

[Soxafloppin]

I've probably done about 8 hours or so a couple of times.

 

[Tallim]

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.

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

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 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

26 hour Civ4 marathon.

 

[Domogo]

For about 3 months I would play Frozen Throne fomr around 2-4pm until 4-6am everyday but that was when I didn't have a life haha

 

[Alcoholidayer]

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.

 

[PlatinumRenegade]

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

 

[Vegetunks9000]

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.

 

[aguspal]

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.

 

[DugMachine]

14 hours when my WoW guild was progressing through Ulduar. Spent maybe 9 hours trying to down Yogg Saron easily... we got him. before the nerf. After the nerf everybody and their mother got him >_>

I can't do that anymore. I get too tired and irritated. 6-8 hours max now

 

[Misterian]

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.

 

[EvilMaggot]

some years ago i kept awake for 74 hours nonstop but now im getting older it gets harder and harder xD

 

[KingofallCosmos]

't Was the year 1997, WipeOut had just come out on Playstation, Redbull (or any drink with additives) was just legalized in Holland and me and my mate were trying to chop off 0.0173 of our record for about oh... 40 hours? Goood times!

 

[razor343]

Probably 20 hours or so. At around the 18th hour when I was playing Super Monday Night Combat, I went into some kind of zone...Basically I didn't really know what I was doing anymore, this somehow ended with me being on top of the leaderboard for that particular game and having 30 more kills than the guy in second place. I didn't die once...That was a beautiful day.

 

[Nerexor]

I've only maybe once made it past 20 hours and that was either Mass Effect 2 or 3. Since I managed to beat both after the course of maybe 2 or 3 days where I only stopped playing to eat and occasionally sleep.

 

[Saregon]

Had one of about 40 hours at a LAN once, friday afternoon to sunday afternoon. Only interrupted by the occasional run to the store for food or random pranks. Except from a few drills in the army I don't think I've even been awake that long since. Nowadays it varies from 10 minutes of Super Meat Boy to 6-8 hours of different games on lazy and/or hangover sundays.

Captcha: one hit wonder. How did you know they called me that in the CS tournament, captcha?? Well, they didn't, so HAH!
