There was a time when I spent nearly 6 hours straight trying to beat God Of War's CotG, from 9pm to around 3am. By the time I completed my little marathon, I vowed to myself never to do that ever again. It was sheer madness.

everytime i see these kind of thread, my answer is always the same.

and anyone who played the game I played should have same answer.

Final Fantasy XI. 36 hours straight.... which was needed for me to do to get NM in that game.

I think I pulled off a 14 or 15 hour sitting with Okami on the second of three sittings. It was probably the only game in my life that I've been as compelled to finish so quickly. 36 hours of play over a 72 hour period. It was insane.

I can't go for more than a 6 hour session without getting a headache. Also, I tend to get sores on my rear from sitting down for long periods of time.

I guess I'm not fit for an MMO.:P

Back in 1995, I spent a whole Saturday playing Doom on the Snes.:P The game has no level select, so I had to go through the game in order.

There was this one race in Gran Turismo, where you have to race like 100 laps or something. Took me almost forever to finish that race. If I'm not mistaken, it was about 3-4hours or something..maybe longer.

Anyone remember which GT ?

Oh yeah...I crashed on the LAST LAP! &$#^%&(#!!

Well... not to date myself, but I remember when Street Fighter 2: Turbo came out for the SNES, me and my friends would play for like 10 hours straight, taking turns. I remember playing fighting games for long periods of time back in their heyday.

But since then I usually don't play for more than a few hours. I get restless, and have to go do something else!

I think it was GT3. I played all of the marathon ones too. I remember one where I thought if I chose the fastest car, I'd finish quicker anyway. Unfortunately, it was a certain time, no matter how many laps you did. Cos I chose the F1 car, I laped everyone by the 3rd lap.

To answer the question for this thread, I've done a 10 hour stint on Tony Hawk 2 that one really sticks out. But I think I've done a 12 hour stint, playing different games. I did a 25 hour session about 4 weekends ago, from Friday to sunday evening.

6-8 hours I think (minus time for some food and bathroom breaks). It's been at least 4 years since I did something like that.

I think about 8 hours, probably more.

I always find it funny when on games such as MGS4, they advise you to spend no more than one hour at a time on the game without taking a fifteen minute break:lol:.

I usually spend the most time in one sitting on RTS games. The longest was probably about 3 hours on Rome: Total War. Hardcore, I know.

I think around 10-11 hours playing FFX the day it came out. I've probably done the same with other RPGs too though, like Xenogears.

3 hourssanpreet8

Noooooooo! You beat me! I thought I would be shortest! Hehe!

4 hours. That's the longest I can play. I can't even stand sitting (LOL) for more than 1 hour. So after sitting for an hour, I take a break for a couple of minutes to walk around and stretch a bit. :)

Your avatar just reminded me...

I've played Red Dead Revolver for a good 5 hours straight. Not the most in this thread, but I just felt like saying it.

What's the longest you've ever spent in a game?

There is also the 24 hours of Nurburgring in Gran Turismo 4... which I never did even in B-spec mode. I never felt like wasting eight hours of my life.

My buddies and I will clock in like 5-6 hours of Gears MP when we feel like it.

I also put in 10 hours to Final Fantasy Tactics A2 on the first day.

I beat Prince of Persia: The Two thrones in one day....
