I probably play about 15-20 hours a week.

Around 3-5 hours on the weekdays at night because of homework, friends, and extra-ciricular stuff

The rest on weekends because of XBL with my frends and also alot of the time i have friends over and we do all-night COD 4 binges (lol)

whaddaboutu?

It really depends on homeworks and other stuff, but I'll say around 15 or less.

I usually play about 4 hours a week. I try to not let videogames come above my family and friends.

About 15 hrs a week, give or take. Today I played 6 hrs straight, but thats normal when playing RPG. Oblivion is sooo addictive.

I would say that I play video games about 70 to 100 hours a week. I usually play more than 100 hours but I have to go to school so I have a limited playing time. :D

It can really range for me, on average I would say around 8-10 hours and sometimes but rarely I might not play at all or I might put 40-50 hours in, but again that is very rare.

I just came off a 12 hours gaming spree. I finished Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes in one sitting. 8)

On average though..... depending on how popular I am that weekend. It will range form 20-30 hours a week.

How is that possible?
You would have to average over 14hrs/day playing games.... so I'm assuming you basically do nothing at all besides sleep for a few hours a night and school?

Back onto the topic however. 0-10hrs usually.
10 is a rough peak, 0 in my usual on/off again way of gaming.

I play games alot so therefore I can't really say how long I play a week. Let's put it this way, after my priorities are done (school, homework, friends and family), the rest of the time is spent gaming or looking at Gamespot.

Sometimes I feel like I'm on Gamespot more than I play games. That being said, my playtime depends alot of my mood, my work schedule, and the level of interest in my current batch of games. I'd say on average, 5-10 hours a week. But days like Saturday are exceptions, where I played Brawl for 4 + hours. :)

That is physically impossible. If you did that every week you'd be dead by now. There are only 168 hours in a week, you need time for sleep, eating, school/work, friends/family etc.

Personally I usually play a little less than 10 hours a week, though some weeks its a lot less and some I don't play games at all. It is only more than that when I've just gotten a new game that I've become addicted to.

Not really. When I first played WoW (started the first april after its release) I had a routine. I woke up at about 10 in the morning and played until about 4 the next morning, meaning I got about 6 hours of sleep a day. This was summer break for a high school student mind you, but still that is near 100 hours or more (not doing the math atm) of gaming a week. At the time all of my friends were also playing WoW (they got me into it) meaning when we hung out it was generally at someone's house with our computers.

Currently though my life is on the other side of the spectrum. I am in college and only play games maybe 20 hours a week (and that is from friday through sunday). Last week however, was spring break and I played at a minimum 10 hours a day, usually more especially when I hung out with my friend to play ssbb and cod4.

I'd say 3-5 hours a week. My gaming time gets progressively smaller as I get older, a far cry from when I once played FFVII for 14 hours strait when I was 14. :) .....:( ..... :cry:

If i have a busy week, with many projects due, maybe about 5 hours excluding weekends. If I don't have much homework than easily up to 20 hours.

I usually play around 12 hours a week, depending on that work week and what I have going on with my wife and 2 little girls.
