We played all the way through both The Two Towers and Return of the King in one sitting to 100% clear on both of them. It took three of us several days and several cases of Mountain Dew (it was before we knew about things like Bawls or Zenedge) to do it and we had to take turns sleeping but we got it all done and it was AWESOME!
I used to go to the ICafe allnighters a few years ago. 9pm to 9am. Its was pretty cool, but I didnt have a computer so all my friends were better than me.
We lan sometimes now, but mostly we dont bother setting up our computers and everyone just chats for 8-12 hours

My friends and I held an event called GNX: Gaming night extreme.
We used to have gaming nights, where we would either LAN, or people would bring over their TVs and we would all play different games. (This was before real multiplayer on consoles, so usually the best you'd get is 2 to a TV, hence the extra ones.)
Anyway, this gaming night extreme consisted of 12 dudes gaming for a straight week. There were naps and such, but there was always something being played at all times.
The numbers eventually dwindled to 5 people, and we capped it off with a marathon session of silent hill 1 and 2 back to back, which is double scary on massive sleep deprivation.

36 hours straight playing through both Assassins Creed 2 and Modern Warfare 2.
Though if you don't count a few hours of sleep I have played WoW for four days without much else.
Got my spirit cat and raven lord out of it though. So more than worth the twenty boxes of rice crackers I ate to keep myself alive.

18 hours of D&D Heroes with three good friends, 5 kilos of mixed sweets, a crate of beer and 2 litres of port (the port was for me!).
No, I don't regret it. Best gaming session ever.....also the funniest. The race for the loot, the race to the front of the queue at the shoppe, tackling a firey level unprepared with only ice protection, all brilliant!

Personal record is something like 30 hours at a LAN-party. Played a mix of Warcraft 3, WoW and a little Unreal Tournament 2004. I don't really regret it, I man I had payed money to sit and game for three days, might as well get my money's worth!
I also played Mass Effect 2 for like 12 hours straight three days in a row when it was first released. I started playing the game on a Thursday and finished it the following Sunday. When I was done, I looked at my calendar an thought "I could have sworn there was a weekend around here somewhere."

What, three hours?
My body feels tight and uncomfortable sitting for longer periods of time.
Plus, I feel like an unproducive slump.

I can't remember exactly how long I was playing, but I had to explain to some friends of mine that I was trapped in the Dark Hour and would not be back for some time.
Had a few all night gaming sessions when three mates and I went round someone's house - usually pick one game to play a ridiculous amount, like GTA4, JC2 and L4D. Was fun, about 8 hours each - downsides was apparently I broke some stuff at his house. I get cranky without sleep.
On my own - probably completing MW2's single player and a few Spec-Ops missions [had no internet and was ill] the day it came out. Dad gave me the game at 11am, finished it at 7pm. Was fucking awesome.
