How many hours per day do you spend playing video games?

I only spend about 2-3 hours playing video games each day. Since I still live with my parents and they want what's best for me, I'm only allowed to play during the weekends, holidays, and Fridays. I am only allowed a certain time-limit as well. I am kind of thankful for that, cause I have other things to do during those days too you know. And so much home-work during the weekdays! But if I moved out already, I would play 4-8 hours instead! :)

Wait, how are you able to post 6 posts when you are only allowed to post 5 posts a day for being a new user. Unless you found out that glitch!

It depends, on the weekdays I never play more than 2 hours, but on the weekends I can play for 5 hours straight.

right now that I'm too busy with study and tests and collage stuff ... well , its like 3 hours per WEEK

but I do 3 - 4 hours a day in summer .

it will be 0 hours when i go to university next year :(

Depends on the day, week,or month. Can be anywhere from 0-12. Mostly it's been either 0-4 recently with school and jobs.

Depends what games are out. I could tell you if Arkham Knight dropped tomorrow I'd probably be investing 3-4 (probably more ) daily for a good while. I recently got a Wii U and Pikmin 3, and I consistently played through it around four hours per day until completing it four times in a row, I enjoyed it so much.

Most of the time I'm perusing various gaming sites and boards. Talking about gaming I find is almost as enjoyable as doing it.

8+ hours in separate sessions during the day

Usually about 3-4 hours day sometimes less. But not all at once. Since it's spring now and the weather is getting better, I spend more time outside. During the winter I could easily spent 6 hours a day playing.

4-8 on days that i work but on the weekends i can play over that.

4-8 hours per day

It depends on the day, work, study etc.

Somedays it might be 2-3 hours and other days it´s 0 and it can be weeks with no gaming at all.

It depends. If it's a holiday, I spend more time in game than weekdays.

Anytime you make an account, you are automatically set with 5 posts on your account. Don't know why that happens.

Weekdays - 1-2 hours/day

Weekends - 2-3 hours/day

For me, it's pretty different everyday. No set time.

Depends on what new games I have. Lately I'm replaying some old ones and having a pretty busy university life as well, I only get to play every two days for about 2 hours. I expect that to increase once I get my hands on a brand new game.

What a "day"? I only know "nights"

Well, because I have been swamped by homework this semester and thus do not play every day, if I did the math, the average amount I play on a given day would seem really low. When I do get to play, I normally play about two hours; but it takes me forever to beat games because of how busy I am nowadays. I started playing BioShock 2 on February 23rd and I'm only at Fontaine Futuristics...

On average maybe a few hrs a day unless im tired, then less.

Due to unemployment... 4 to 8 hours. It's not as fun as it sounds.

I don't play everyday. Sometimes I go weeks without playing anything. Just depends as sometimes I might play a game every night for a couple hours till I'm bored of it, then not play for a month. A week ago I pre ordered Bound by Flame on Steam and have yet to play it. Mostly because I don't feel like diagnosing why I have no audio on my PC. It's setup for a steam box so I'd have to bust out my mouse/kb, run task explorer and then figure out wtf.....nah, screw that, not in the mood to diagnose PC's stupid problems, it's always something and this is a brand new install even. It's likely the reason it's my least favorite platform.

I get more game time out of my 3DS or PS3 than I have anything else in a very long time. Kinda sad.

It really depends on the day and what i have to do. But i can easily spend 4 hours or more if i have the time

Depends on the day, in summer i play for like 4-6hours each day !

I am disabled so I have time on my hands, I average 4-8. But if I have a new awesome game it can be lots more, and there are other times I get in a reading mood or television/movies than I will go days only touching Netflix on my console.

This maybe three or four days a week, the others 0-4. If I have a lot of free time and a game I really like it could be more.

The goddamn university just doesn't let me go.I only get an hour or two late night , before going to bed.

I get around 30 minutes to 2 hours a day on gaming. Work is a b****

My playtime depends on what game I'm playing. Lemme see, this following days I've spent:

Playing Ragnarok Online 1: 8+ hours

Eclipse War Online: 1-2 hours

NBA 2K14: 2-3 hours

League of Legends: 3-4 hours

Most of the time 0 hours a day lately. It really depends on work and school. I can go weeks without even loading a game up because I'm too busy. When I do get the chance to play its usually for a couple of hours.

Varies wildly, though I'd guess on average it's in the 4 hour range per day when I've got a game or games I'm actively playing.

4+

it really depends. before i started working...easily over 8hours a day almost everyday. now i can average 4 hours but maybe 2-3 a week

I play 2 hours a day, and 12 hours a week on average. This is because I have limits, and I obey them. However, although rarely, sometimes I get an additional hour of gaming time on Sundays on the console, and sometimes play all night on my Nintendo, which could add up to a few hours extra.

I only game at the weekends now - 5 hours

Impossible to say per day since i do not have time or need to play every day.

I probably play games 5-6 hours a week if that.

way too many.

sometimes I think I have a problem.

I definitely play video games when I should be doing other stuff, i.e. socializing, cleaning my room, doing laundry, etc.. Basically if I am not at work or attending appointments I've made, I am pretty much at home playing video games or on the computer.

I rarely enjoy it any more, I just do it out of habit. Like Battlefield 1 came out and I was all "Holy shit this is amazing" because I still love games and I probably played it 20-30 hours in the first week, then I stopped because it kind of killed it for me and bought another game (disposable income).

This is what I should do, but I lack discipline.

This thread is almost 3 years old.

Hate it when that happens.

And we do not seem to have any moderators in GD any more.

where are the Mods when you need them hey

wow ya this thread is old. I wasn't even born when it was first written.

36 hours.

About the same. I try to squeeze in an hour everyday, but it's not always possible.

0-2 Hours

I'd say 2-3 hrs. All depends on the game though honestly.

N/A, i'm a binge gamer

around 4 hours usually if im in work 6-7 hours if im off

i spend more time sleeping.

I work full-time so work nights I'll go usually just about a single hour gaming, but on weekends it can range from 2-10 hours a day depending on what I'm doing (Final Fantasy, Minecraft, so on and so forth.) Half of that is recording for Youtube but it's still game playing.
