How long do you play games for?
After hearing this thing on the news one day about WoW players playing for around 19 hours straight, I've thought about asking how long you guys play games for in a day.
I'm not just talking about online games like WoW, but games in general. Do you go for an "all nighter", or do you take an hourly session with a 15 min break in between? Personally, I spend no more than a couple of hours a session and I spend about two or three in a day. The only exceptions is when I buy a new game that I've been looking forward to and I tend to play those for around three or four hours solid. Discuss... |
hmm.... i would say around 8 hours if i have time. if i dont, usually 2-3 hours.
|
The longest I've played a game in a row is 10 Years hours.
If I get a new game (and it isnt awful) I will play it for about 5 hours then probably 6 the next day since its usually the weekend. If I am playing normally I usually get in 1-2 Hours. |
Around 12 hours was my longest session. I don't do that very often.
|
It varies but I'll go for that 4—5 hours option.
CoD4/5 multiplayer is unstoppable. :0 |
I usually play for 5-7 hours, but that's because I have parents. I bet I could pull an all nighter if I lived by myself and had nothing to do the next day.
|
I normally play for an hour at a time.
Some of the people who posted here amaze me. O: |
I done a 24 hour bender with a friend once. I have never felt so appallingly tired or ill in my life.
Normally I play for about 2-3 hours a day depending if I;m home or not. |
I can't sit still for more than an hour, so I stop after about that long.
Yet that doesn't apply to the computer, oddly. |
The longest bout I had going was 39 hours, 26 minutes (that was with Final Fantasy XII), but I obviously cannot do that every two days. My average is about 4-7 hours a day, depending on how much time I spend on the internet/computer and how much homework I have.
|
On average, I play for atleast 2-4 hours.
It mainly depends on the amount of free time I have left. I believe the most I ever played was 14 hours (About the time brawl came out.). |
I usually play video games 1 hour to 3 hours. ;]
|
2-3 hours normally unless I have got a brand new, very engaging game that I get stuck into. The longest I have ever played non-stop is about 8 hours on Wolfenstein ET
|
at weekends i play for about 7 hours but at days in the week for about half an hour because of homework
|
My longest was an almost 24 hour smash fest with melee. Oh god me and my friend had trouble going to school the next day XD bt yeah mostly 1-2 hours now.
|
Around 2 hours, but on weekends, around 5.
|
Depending on how obsessed I am with the game and if I get interruptions, I can usually play a game for the whole day.
But either than that, usually just 2 hours, usually I get kicked off. >_O |
Thanks to NaNoWriMo, my playing time's cut down to one hour at a time mostly.
However, I can play sessions that usually last 4-5 hours. My personal record is 12 hours playing Grand Theft Auto IV, taking breaks to do bathroom business and eating snacks while I played. |
It really depends, sometimes I don't even play at all and other times I play over 8 hours. If I had to give an average I would say about 4-5.
|
Normally I'll play a game for about 3-4 hours, I don't really play much during the week though.
|
Normally I'll play about 2 or three hours a day on weekends... But if it's a game I really like, a new game, or I'm playing with friends, then I might play for five hours or less...
Mostly, I'll just get bored after about an hour though |
It varies for me.
Back in the day, on weekends of course (thank you jr. high and high school), I would play from the moment I woke up until I got tired enough to sleep. Nowadays it all depends on the game that I'm playing. I would say on average about 4-5 hours a session when I get really into it. Although there is many a time when I can only squeeze in about an hour, give or take, depending on if I'm busy or if I just get ADD and feel the need to do something else. I would probably say the longest I've spent on a game is about 16-17 hours. Haha.. which brings me back to one thing. One day my best friend and I spent, like, 3-4 hours playing Super Smash Bros. on the N64 on 100 stock with Bomboms and mines only, with the television hooked up to surround sound, and the volume turned up massively. It's kind of lame that we did it that long, but we could go on for hours doing stupid stuff like that all the time. :D |
I only play for around 2 hours. Sometimes, 2 hours every 2 days.
But sometimes I spree... like yesterday when I spent most of my time cooped up in my room playing Mass Effect. Not good for your physical/mental health :/ |
when it comes to pokemon...it never gets put down..seriously and i can usually play my one piece game for 15 hours
|
I used to play for a minimum of about seven hours a day. It didn't do good things to me. Unless I have absolutely nothing to do that day, I try and limit myself to three hours or less daily.
Of course, if we start talking about tabletop gaming, that goes right out the window and I'll play for as long as everyone else in the group is up for it. |
