What's too much time playing games

What do you consider to be too much time a day playing games? My wife thinks if I play for more than three hours a day , it too much. I think if you play 6 hours straight than that's a bit much. There's been times on my vacation time that I've played for 8 or 9 hours throughout the day and my eyes were starting to burn. :)

I personally think it depends on the person and their schedule. I'm a very busy high school student, so I may play one hour over a span of 5 weekdays and maybe 3-4 hours on weekends. But during the summer, i've played for up to 8 hours. If video games is making your life harder, then you're playing too much.

There are certain rules to follow to make sure you're not playing too much:

When your GF wants to screw, you turn that **** off. (Some of you can pause it lolz)

When your stomach growls, you PAUSE, and grub.

When you have to PEE/POOP, you lift the lid of the seat and game on, you should've crafted a chair with a toilet in it by now you noob.

School/Sex/Work/Food/Defecation.

There ya go.

LOL!

You do know I was born on a toilet chair and I'm sat on it right now.:P

I've read lately on these forums of people saying that they've been playing for 10 hours straight and do that often and then they wonder why their PS3 got the Yellow light of death.

It's too much when you walk outside and the light hurts your eyes

Meh, depends on scheduale. My dad used to play WoW 2-3 hours a day on weekdays due to work, and that worked for him. I'm an unemployeed, single High School student with not a lot of homework so I play 6-7 hours a day on weekdays, 14-16 on weekends, and that works for me. If you are still spending time with others and not missing work/school/etc. then game on, my friend, game on.

you have a serious problem, and will probably remain unemployed...which the rest of society pays for...

Agreed, andyour routine sounds almost like mine.lol...and the only thing I have to say is that too much gaming is bad when it stops you from being productive in real-life and it causes you to become anti-social.

I have the same problem. Thing is that I don't watch a lot of TV (maybe 5 hours per week during footballoff season) so I play videogames in the evenings and weekendsinstead. Then the wife complains that I'm playing too much while she is watching 4 hours of the Real Housewives or something like that...

i used to play ffxi and wow like 9 hours a day back in the day.
