[wraggster]

i remember spending 10 hours in one battle without stopping on C&C Generals

also on Red ALert 2 online i had a 7 hour battle, was my fave online battle ever :)

[Kamon]

24 hours, Gran Turismo 4 endurance race baby

[Auriman1]

I believe I spent around 35 hours on an online game once. It was incredible, but I vowed to never let it happen again, at least not without some breaks in there.

I once had a DDR session for about 18 hours with my friends, as well. That permanently whipped me into shape, I think, as I've found my lung capacity and endurance went up considerably afterwards. I couldn't walk properly the day immediately following said session, though, as my legs were quite sore. It goes with the old saying: no pain, no gain.

[wraggster]

24 hours/35, jesus christ, how the hell did you stay awake :P

[Iceman^2]

I recieved Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask for Christmas one year and I must have played that for about 14 hours straight one day. It was good times, however, I had to go out to visit relatives afterward and felt like I had been kicked in the head.

[Kamon]

24 hours/35, jesus christ, how the hell did you stay awake :P

lots and lots and lots of coffee and sugar lol

[steve520]

ive stayed up 2 days straight in the summer beating devil may cry 3 on the hardest setting meh it took forever it was fun tho.

[goshogun1]

Final Fantasy XI. 26 hours straight. Thank god that's out of my life. MMORPGS devour souls!

[mike_jmg]

I think the longest was like 5 hours playing God of War, not much, compared to the 24/35 or 48 hours

[havoc_012]

Probably an all day Starcraft session lasting about 16-17 hours, with bathroom breaks and food in between. That game was addictive... :P

[chanaz]

31 hours of flyff with about 3 bathroom breaks and me running back to the action

[gutbub]

Probably an all day Starcraft session lasting about 16-17 hours, with bathroom breaks and food in between. That game was addictive... :P

I've also played Starcraft online for quite a while. I used to play it that much every Friday and Saturday night, for like four years. My max was somewhere above 30 hours though.

Also, I think I played one of the Lord of the Rings games for at least 12 hours straight. It doesn't feel like that was long ago, but that was at least four or five years ago.

[davidcrew]

like 10 hrs on Chrono Cross and maybe 8ish on Half Life 2? Wow. you people are ridiculous with 35ish hours O.o

[Veskgar]

18 hours on Metal Gear Solid 2.

[Failedartifact]

I would say problery 5 - 8 hours on either Counter Strike Source, or Halo 2 (on xbox live (not on campaign lol).

Man your so tense on your last game. Its almost life or death to every player from you.

[hadokenakuma]

There was an Incident where I decided to Unlock EVERY FRIGGIN' THING AT ONCE In marvel vs capcom 2 for dreamcast. About 45 hours with a five minute break every four hours to use bathroom/eat/drink. Another Incident was with test drive le mans, 24 hours straight on that. Then for the finale, a 64 hour run on Street fighter alpha 3. I've got about 2,000 hours logged in on that. Yeah I have NO life but I never use much sleep. Thinking about doing some marathons on twin galaxies.

[addman999]

Once a 24 hour Halo session. Me and my mates were playin halo one and 2 and it was my turn to sit out,as we were playin 2-player. I sat on his sofa and briefly fell asleep ,I then embarrassingly slept walked over to his TV and starting to tap it yelling "press the shield button". I also once played Pokemon for about 12 hours straight( completing the game in the process i add) and then dreamed about it . spooky dreamin in like 2d. Lol Lol :rofl: im just that kl ;)

[mib_]

I've done several 24hr sessions and one 48hr session (Dungeon Siege) I usually take a 20minute break every 4hrs or so.

12hrs on a Saturday is normal for me. Gaming is pretty much the only thing I can do when I'm on call.

I've been known to DJ for 8hrs straight too.

Sleep... what's that then?:rolleyes:

[ojdon]

I played Digimon World for 9 hours straight with a friend once, Damn that game was sooo addictive. D=

[Zargon]

17 hours playing Spyro the Dragon. Only left the television to pee and grab pizza. 13th birthday party. Best birthday ever. Everyone else was asleep and I figured, "Why the hell not?".
Was in a near coma once they all left.

[Triv1um]

After reading some of these, I dont feel so hardcore about doing a 24 hour race on GT4 with no breaks. Haha.

[____anders____]

yea MMO's eat your time... and brain :p

[Emulation_Chief]

Hello:

The longest time I spent playing a single game that I remember was almost 8 hours on a BioShock session on 360.

[mikeyxero]

38 hours straight, with the occasional food break, playing Final Fantasy IV DS the weekend after it was released. Completed the game all the way once, and got 3/4 through a second time. Plugged it in so I wouldn't have to stop to charge. Didn't even have to stop playing to use the bathroom. Gotta love portability!:thumbup:

[dethball]

Well after reading these posts I had to reply :) now once you have read this you will say im mad :eek: but trust me you dont want to know :o
I stayed up playing Shadowrun for the first time on the SNess from start to finish which took me three days, but I did take time to eat, drink loads of coffee & pepsi, toilet breaks when I needed to go and lots of Marlboro to smoke.
My m8 still talks about it to me when I see him because he came down my house everyday and said to me you still up playing that game and I would reply yes m8 till I finish it.God I hope I dont EVER do that again or my misses will kill me :eek: but I have just quit pc gaming now im back onto consoles so we will see what happens ;)

[hansblitzenburg]

Longest time I have spent on a game in one session is roughly 10 hours.

[User Name]

Heh Dragon Warrior Monsters 2 for GB First game I ever bought I played it a total of 350 in one month. First gaming system a GBC Turok seeds of evil 2 I played in 8 hours segments. Homeschooling you get so much time to beat records people make :)

[Malksta]

Probably around 14 hours playing Wind Waker

[Shadowblind]

Probably at most around 8 hours playing Halo Custom Edition on PC. We had 5 training sessions in our clan and 5 clan battles in a row directly after that and won all of them. It was a blast, but damn is it didn't hurt to play that long :P

[fg-54]

oh wow! you guys are all nuts XD the most i have ever done is probably like 4 hours max.

[brummerthedrummer]

hrm... its close to about 10 or 12 hours on both Counterstrike 1.6 and FFXI for me...

never too big on playing 1 game for an insane amount of time without stopping...
however after seeing all this i kinda wanna try it once. lol.

[NiGame]

5 days no sleep with 5 m8's playing civ 2 with network expansion

[Eric]

lol i think i spent almost 5 hours playing Super Mario Bros on Super Mario Allstars to get the highest score of 999999999 of course maybe alot longer i played until i was sweating from being fat for to long.

But i most likely played PSO in one sitting all night long.

[Benner bes]

I once have 2day session in this game. That permanently whipped me into shape, I think, as I've found my lung capacity and endurance went up considerably afterwards. I couldn't walk properly the day immediately following said session, though, as my legs were quite sore. It goes with the old saying: no pain, no gain.
