how many hours do you spend on a game?

[obavijest]

I'm playing pokemon yellow, and have 2 badges. I'm currently destroying trainers on the SS ANNE, and have 10.5 hours logged already! It seems like this is way too much time this early on, or does this seem right?

This is more game-related so I'm moving this to PGC.~

On an average playthrough, I generally beat the Elite Four in a little over a day (24:00-25:00 on the time recorder).

 

[Pokemon Trainer Touko]

I usually spend 20 - 30 hours to complete the game.

 

[PlatinumDude]

I spend 100+ hours to complete a game because of the grinding and breeding I do.

 

[obavijest]

probably 50% of the time i spend in game is exploring or wandering around lol...its like im stuck in the game

I just checked, and I've spent approximately 45 hours on Pokemon Black. If I remember correctly, I think I beat the E4 in around 35 hours. So yeah, it kind of depends. I'm too lazy to go find my GBA and compile all of the times that I've spent on each Pokemon cartridge. But I think I spend around 20 to 50 hours, just to beat the E4. And I spend some more hours after that.

I don't play anymore, but when I did, I would play for a couple hours straight.

All together tho, the highest number of hours played would be my Saphire with about 300 hundredish hours. It was my first Pokemon game :D

I spend usually 50'ish hours, because I always Grind a lot.

On average I trample the gyms and E4 within 12 hours. White took a little over 10, I believe. I come to life in the endgame, since the main reason I play this series is for the metagame- which evidently requires rather a lot of chain breeding and grinding. I clocked a full 999 hours on Ruby over a four year span- which is a lot of play time- and I'm into the low 200s in Blue, Gold and HG. Diamond can die in a fire, and I'm still working on White, which currently sits at a little over 40.

I need a more socially acceptable hobby.

My current time in Black version is 72:14, and I haven't beaten the Elite Four for the second time as of yet. In other words: I like grinding. I like grinding a LOT!

That seems about right. Its because the first gym leader is rock/ ground types and Pikachu (and just about every other Pokemon you find before the 1st gym) will not be very effective again it. Of course the second gym is much easier since its a water type gym! :)

For me, to complete the whole game it usually takes me 30-50 hours, depending on the game.

 

[cbd98]

let's see. on my emerald i just hit 60:00, in pokemon xd gale of darkness i have about 120:00, in diamond i have 80:00, and in white i have 70:00. so i've played pokemon a little over 300 hours of my life.

 

[amberfunk]

I have close to 300 hours on heartgold. On just play throughs I usually spend maybe between 20-50 hours per play though depending on the game.

Diamond: 247:45
Soul Silver: 72:21
Sapphire: 56:14
Fire red: 120:54

 

[Meganium]

I average 30 hours on a Pokemon game, probably because I tend to just follow the game instead of having to spend so much time on training my Pokemon.

 

[Percy Thrillington]

I have three hundred hours on Pokemon Blue and Silver - think I had around 150 on Ruby and 100 on Diamond. Have no idea how I wasted it so much time playing the games but I have no regrets.

 

[Seeds Horizon]

In SoulSilver..I beat the E4 in twenty hours or so, and for the whole game, my logged time is about 43 hours, with me buffing up and picking out a team to beat up Red. Ill probably spend a LOT more time playing, getting my team up to Lv.100, getting my favorite Pokes the medals for each Pokeathlon event, beating Battle Tower, etc etc...And finishing the Nat Dex. Most Poke games though I beat and then reset, start out with a whole new team and different starter. White I rest about 5 times...*shrugs*. Though now I have HeartGold so not resetting my SS XD. For my Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald games I never reset though, I just pretty much got my team to Lv. 80 then beat up the E4 a hella lot of times, then just roamed..

 

[BHwolfgang]

It took me 200+ hours to just beat SoulSilver. There were times when I just left the game on for hours and hours, so that's probably why the number is so high.

However, it does take me a very long time to complete the storyline. I grind my Pokemons a lot. I also spend extra times on EV training. Then, I have to make sure that my party doesn't get destroyed by the Pokemon League Champion. So, overall, it'd probably take me... 50 to 100 hours.

 

[SuperSaiyanII]

I start over a lot but on average I'll end up reaching around 40 hours before I do restart. The most I've ever had was 256 hours on pearl.
